The team accompanying Ese comprises of an assistant commissioner of police and other top ranking officers.
Meanwhile, the parents of Ese Oruru have said that they will only believe she is free when they see her.
Ese’s father, Charles, said despite being informed by the Commissioner of Police in Bayelsa that his daughter had been freed, he would wait until he meets her before celebrating.
“I won’t believe anything until I see my daughter, Ese, in person,” he said.
In the same vein, Ese’s mother, Rose said, “We have been hearing different rumours, but I won’t believe any of them until I see my daughter. When we went to Kano, the Emir said something about her being released to us, so why should I believe them this time?
But I will be happy to see my daughter back home with me and safe.
