Again !!! Another 14-yr-old Benue Girl Abducted In Sokoto by opeyemiieblog(m): 5:10am On Mar 03, 2016
MAKURDI— Relations of another missing 14-
year-old girl, Patience Paul, have alleged that
the primary six pupil of Mohammed Zako
Model Primary School, Sokoto, may have been
abducted and housed at the palace of the
Sultan of Sokoto.

Father of the girl, Mr. Paul Adaji, an indigene
of Ochobo in Ohimini Local Government Area
of Benue State, told Vanguard on phone that
his daughter had been missing since August
12, 2015.

Adaji, who resides in Sokoto with his family,
alleged that some persons spotted his
daughter at the Sultan’s palace.
He said: “We got information that she was in
the Sultan’s palace and the last time we went
there, we did not find her.”

When asked how they knew she was at the
palace, he said: “Some people told us that
they saw her at the palace. They also used to
camp some of them there, that was why we
went to the palace to see if she has been
taken there.

“Even her friend, who used to be a Christian, was
found there. She was taken there and they converted her.

“We will still continue to
search for her. We will not give up; we only want the
world to help us so that our daughter can be released to us.

Brother’s story
Corroborating
Mr. Adaji’s story, his son, Paul Isaac Adaji,
gave an account of circumstances that led to
the disappearance of his sister.

He said: “Patience is my younger sister. We
are based in Sokoto. That is where the issue
occurred. My dad is in Sokoto but we lost our
mother two years ago. My younger sister was
brain-washed from school, Mohammed Zako
Model Primary school, Sokoto. She is a
primary six pupil.

“The fact is that sometime last year, we
noticed she started keeping some funny
friends and her attitude started changing. This
is a girl that normally likes attending church
activities.

“We cautioned her but along the line, she
changed. Then again, she started
misbehaving. So at that point, my parent and I
decided to move her out of Sokoto and return
her to Benue State so the rumours of children
converting does not happen to us as we do
not have anybody to fight for us.

“Unfortunately, what we were scared of later
happened to us. Sometimes we will see her
returning from school with a veil covering her
head. When we inquired, she said it was given
to her by her friend in school.

“We cautioned her on several occasions. But
we later arranged with my dad to get her back
to Benue. Unfortunately, she got to know
about our plan to send her back to Benue and
obviously informed the people who were
brainwashing her and they eventually
abducted her.

“When we could not see her, we started
serious investigation and along the line,
discovered that it was one of our neighbours
who actually abducted her.

Hisbah takes over
“We reported the matter to the police. The
masterminds of her abduction were invited by
the Police. They made their confessions that
the girl wanted to join their religion, which
was why they abducted her. They said they
took her to the Hisbah (Islamic Police).
“At that point, the Police invited the Hisbah
and they came and gave their own statement.
They said they had taken the girl to the
Sultan’s palace. I was hoping that since the
police had stepped in, my sister would come
home.

“But that did not happen. I reported the
matter at the Police Headquarters in Sokoto,
but it was transferred to our Area Division. So
after the interrogations, the Police said since I
reported the matter at the headquarters, their
findings will also be communicated to the
headquarters.

“Two weeks later, I went to the police
headquarters here in Sokoto only for the
police to tell us that we should just go and
maintain peace. I became inquisitive and
wanted to know what the police found that
prompted that advice.

Bishop Kukah steps in
“It was at that point that I reported the
matter to Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese,
Matthew Kukah. He was very angry with us,
saying we ought to have reported the matter
to him earlier.

“He made some calls and promised to step
into the matter. I became restless and worried
because the Bishop is a very busy person. We
are urging and pleading with all well-meaning
Nigerians to help us intervene.

“From what we gathered, from last year up to
early this year, she was in the Sultan’s palace,
but she has been taken away from there since
last month.

“‘We went there with my other sister to check
and they brought a different person to us.
From our investigations, she is not the only
one because the two girls they brought did
not look like real Muslims.”

Meanwhile, calls to Bishop Kukah to find out
the veracity of claims that the matter was
reported to him at a point were not responded
to.
Source confirm palace connection
However, a source in Sokoto told Vanguard
that the girl was actually abducted and kept
at the Sultan's palace.

The source also noted that the teenager was
not the only person abducted and hidden at
the palace, adding that three other girls were
in the palace.

The source said: “What is happening is not
new; it is a common occurrence in Sokoto and
Katsina. Christian teenage girls are often
abducted and hidden in such places.
“Patience is not the only victim. Three other
girls were found to have been abducted and
kept at the palace. There is an Ibo girl among
the three.”

Reacting to the development yesterday,
Sokoto State Commissioner of Police, Salisu
Fagge, said: “It is not true. I have not
received such report from anybody. We relate
very well with the palace and Bishop Kukah
and such report has never come to me.
“If we had got it, we would have taken prompt
action. Please ask the man to see me in the
office without delay if what he is saying is
true.”

well, this might be the case of a girl who ran to her "lover"(prolly her thought).. and the accusation i was talking about was some will said she was kidnapped and raped.. its possible that the girl grew up in the north, kids easily adapt to everywhere they find themselves and what's practiced in such place(e.g culture), that girl might not find anything wrong with that because she has seen her schoolmates doing the same thing..


well.. just assuming sha

Why arrest those who kidnap and demand ransom to eat whereas those who kidnap to satisfy their ugly sexual urge walk freely?

Police should immediately release all those kidnappers in their cells and the National Assembly should as a matter of urgency promulgate a law giving people freedom to kidnap and be kidnapped since the Sultan and the Emirs are now Godfathers.

And in the end, Nigeria will move forward...Amenundecided

Hausa/Fulani Arabs have become Sex Predators. They are on Rampage to loot for Virgins in the South below Rivers Niger and Benue and corrupt all Christians Civilizations and Values. They are practising the old Babylonian style of colonization. When they abduct all the Virgins in the South and carry them to the North, Tompolo will come out of hiding to pursue them. It is the Nigerian civilization and Christian values, they are trying to bastardise.
