When you say "Nigeria media" , you need to specify. That encompasses the entire body of Nigerian professional journalism. You can't call premium times or Sahara desert (sorry, Sahara reporters) a part of that body because a true journalist has one duty bound under oat, to speak the truth, no matter the cost.

People like this day, punch, daily independent, sun, and TV stations like channels, etc... Are those u can recognize with this body. Those with proven track record of die hard journalism. Note that if not for true Nigerian journalism, Ese won't have been returned, (we won't have known any Ese exists in Kano since August last year until Punch launched the #free Ese campaign. That to me is the most successful and dependable journalism any country could ever have.

You need to choose your source of info carefully. Not every online blog or news site is committed to true journalism.
Some are Complaining, baby factory here, corruption there, now we have discovered that media journalism can turn things around, I say let's use this new power to Forge the kind of future and society we've always dreamed of.
#so glad Ese is back. # prosecution begins for yunusa

It's good that Ese has been reunited with her folks and the Nigerian media played a very huge role in that. Still, that removes nothing from the fact that the same media left many of us confused. How old exactly is the boy? How old exactly is the girl? When exactly was she "abducted"? ...

And when I say "lazy journalists", I am referring to the evidence that some of the reporters actually failed to do their home work well before publishing their reports - The Nation, The Punch, Premium Times have different ages for the abductor and the abductee. Which is which?

I thought he was 20 a while ago. Like father , like son. The apple really doesn't fall far from the tree.

They initially said 18 while Ese"s age was inflated to 17

Can i just note that if his people were not used to such immorality, they would have kicked against it frm d onset, from d moment he came home with d girl. D fact dat he even had d courage to take such a young girl home nd present her as a wife-to-be is appalling. It means, he envisioned it wouldn't be a problem as odas b4 might av done dat as well. And also, pls read were the elder took both d guy nd d girl to d Hakimi(the one who has d power to join them in marriage)... Like it or not, a crime was committed here.

A girl younger than 18 is considered a minor, meaning every of her actions must be guided by her parents and d fact dat d guy did things without d consent of d girl's parents makes him a criminal including all dat aided him. Too bad our country doesn't uphold constitution n justice.

And did u just say a 25year old guy is naive

mmmm

I just feel very sorry for ese. I want to standby mrs falana's decision in SR. There are going to be distortions of stories becos there will be people telling them what they should say to cover-up. IGP is talking tough now, we will prosecute offenders no matter his or her position, empty speech from Nigerian police. Once Ghana bag is shown to them tough talking will change to foolish talking. Did i read that ese's parents were in kano before this period, like last year? All other mediating groups' we are waiting for good ending. I don't want to believe the story that it was yunusa that gave the release conditions that, 1, that ese must not be beaten by her parents, 2, IGP must be the one to handover ese to her parents and 3, that she must be converted back to a christian. Read in SR days. Someone is lying on this issue. But who? Police, hope is not you?

I just av one reply for u

To announce ur ineptitude I wouldn't need a microphone cos a whisper of your foolishness would be heard in galaxies far away

dinggle:
This is an indictment on Sanusi and all those Muslims in Nigeria
who in the name of Islam took under age girls as wives, this nonsense of marrying under-age girls must be criminalized until that is done pls set the young man free....period! we can not apply double standard for different class of Nigerians.
Nigeria must have a law that protect girls against under age marriage, age of consent in the eyes of the law must be minimum 17yrs.

These Northerners are a big disgrace to Nigeria, from Boko haram to Fulani herdsmen,to pedophiles, this country should just break already so they can do as they please with themselves. USELESS OLORIBURUKUS

No brother u re not getting my point

If u see d way those woman joke with there customers just to retain them nd also give them so many opportunity especially with there daughter's u will cry for them. Am talking base on what av seen not only in bayelsa but in most places.

If everything is strictly on business it would af been avoidable unless d girl head wan mental bt hell no all dey want is to retain der customers.

U can't come to my shop after transaction den u start playing with my daughter or decide to send my daughter on some nonsense errand hell no I won't tolerate dat infact if u see my eye ball u will get my point.


Those mother re d issue brother I knw what am saying they lev dos girls with their customer. Couldn't explain better here bt seriously am against d act bt I know wat am saying also

I agree with you bro. But still, yunusa has no excuse.
He's not the only person they play with, or sell food to. Why did he take it personal.
And there are temptations every where, every day. It's our duty to maintain sanity.
No one is accused for being tempted. Neither do you sue any One for tempting you. But falling to temptation is the crime.

Oo I get your point. Lapses here and there. But no worries, the most important facts have been laid bare. These other factors may not be relevant to the subject matter.
