Stephanie Okereke-Linus In Kinabuti

Actress,

It was a double header for the actress as it was also a time for the screening of her movie 'Dry' which is currently getting good reviews from observers.

This happened during 'Nolly Thursdays', a platform which has been described as the new Industry Night for Nigerian movie stars and movies.

The movie review was done at the fourth edition of the event among fans and movie associates.

Okoreke-Linus, who is now a mother, looks like she is comfortable combining the responsibilities of motherhood and acting.

She is passionate about a lot of things including girl-child advocacy. She had a few comments to share about 14 years old Ese Oruru, the teenager who made the headlines after being abducted by Yunusa Dahiru in Bayelsa State.

She said, “I’ve been keenly following Ese Oruru’s story on the news for some time now and the turn of events is really shocking, I must say. Different versions of her story keep creeping up in the news. It’s hard to know what to believe anymore.”

“What I find most appalling is some people are blaming her for her predicament. Blaming a 14 year-old girl! For what! She is still a child. It’s even more sad that there are still lots of girls taken from their parents care across the country and sexually abused everyday.”

Ese Oruru has since been reunited with her family.
