About Abductions, Forced Marriages and Stockholm Syndrome

I haven't said much about Ese's matter primarily because the details are hazy. I didn't like the #ChildNotBride and #EseIsNotAisha flavor. I also have a concern about sharing pictures of victims and hiding the identities of perpetuators. I haven't seen ONE picture of Yinusa.

He needs to be tried for abduction/kidnapping. All is not well because Ese has been "freed" (Is she back with her parents?). We need to look deeper into this crime of abducting young ladies and "marrying" them. Minors CANNOT give consent...Parental consent is required for minors who want to get married.

Sweeping this crime under the carpet is corruption; it is not acceptable. Pretending that the killings in Agatu are not happening is also corruption. Sweeping ANY crime under the carpet is corruption. It means no one will do anything to stop the crime...

To prove that I'm an unbiased writer (yeah right), I admit that there was power supply when I woke up and it is scary...very scary...Lol.
