– Teenager wrote love letter stating that she denied four other men for Yunusa
– Accepts Yunusa’s terms and conditions for escape
– Makes her own demands before carrying out elopement
Contrary to initial claims that Ese Oruru, the abducted Bayelsa-born teenage girl had nothing to do with her abductor, fresh reports have revealed some facts.
The teenager had denied having anything to do with Yunusa Dahiru, her alleged abductor, who reportedly whisked her to Kano state on August 12, 2015, where she was forced into an early marriage and converted to Islam.
Vanguard gathered that a sort of intimacy may have existed between the two before the incident.
In an interview shortly after his arraignment, Yunusa (aka Yellow) had claimed responsibility for the five-month old pregnancy Ese is currently carrying, and confirmed that Mrs Rose Oruru, Ese’s mum, was also aware of their relationship before the alleged abduction took place.
Mrs Oruru subsequently denied the claims by Yunusa, stating that she was not in anyway in the know about any such thing.
But a latter obtained by Vanguard shows clearly how the pair may have been in an intimate relationship before the whole incident.
Ese, 14, had in the letter, allegedly said that her abductor, Yunusa asked for three things which included; following him to Kano; dropping her Christianity religion for Islam and love only him, in a bid to cement their love affair.
Below is the letter titled: ‘Pls read & reply me Inusa.’
Dear, Inusa how are you? I hope you are fine and all is well with you?
“Please don’t be annoyed by these words but I think it is best for the both of us. Please please please don’t be annoyed I beg of you Inusa, maybe everyone just have to say the truth.
I want to start by saying thank you for everything if accepted, thank you yanzu, I would say I now know what is going on which you never wanted to tell me but I will say that is not fair.”
“When I started selling here, I met Abubakar who once told me that he had fellings for me but I can never send because I did not have fellings for him, so I turned him down.
“Then again I met Genedu and I also turned him down.
“Now, it is Dantata which everybody knows that he loves me dearly but I find a lot of faults in him and don’t love him back. He has done his best to stay down and beg about one year now, if I am right, I will never lie to you Inusa.
“Dantata has been begging me to love him back but as soon as I wanted to fall for him you came back into my life. I still know that Dantata is still waiting for me only if I will accept him.
“Inusa I now know that you also love me and I have decided to love you back. I love you Inusa but sometimes I do think Dantata is still seeking.
“My name as known by myself is RITA and my main problem is that if I love you (Inusa) and you also love me what will become of us.
“You once told me you like me more than anyone else, but now I have seen how far you have gone in this case because it is very serious to me.
You asked me to help you in just three ways in which you said:
“Follow me to my village – Kano State
“Leave your religion for mine – Christian & Muslim
“It is only you I love and no other person.
“I have already accepted the first quest then while decide to tell me that you cannot take me along with you the same day it is very unfair. Inusa why, just tell me why you decide to be unfair.
“Well Inusa there were many other Hausa boys who asked for friendship but did not get it. I had so many people who I have lived with do you know what it means to live the people you had lived with for 13 good years of life.
“Think on me Inusa please
“I beg of you Inusa please
“Think of me
“My heart beats immediately or anytime I see you if you know how much I love you you will not think about hurting my feelings.
“I still stand by you Inusa, yeallo yellow my best colour but one question who made you think.
“I write this because I am sick and tired of this baldadash I hear everyday.
