ENGLISH TRANSLATION

AFTER TEN YEARS, POLICE RELEASEDTHREE WOMEN FROM CAPTIVITY

One of the Yoruba prayers said “God should deliver us from those watching us without our knowledge”, this prayer was answered for the three women that were kidnapped over ten years ago.  One of the captive had a baby of six years in captivity.

It is an incomparable sadness for anyone to miss a child.  Yoruba adage said “A dead child is better than a loss one”, this must have accounted for the death of the mother of one of the women in captivity, it is unfortunate that she did not live to witness the joyous release of her daughter kept captive by Ariel Castro.  It was a miracle that these women came out alive because many missing persons were never found alive or dead.

The news of the three women’s release by the Police from their captor’s house was announced on Monday, May 6, 2013.
