We will also be able to rehabilitate her".<br /> It was gathered that Governor Umahi had given a 7-day ultimatum for Uzoamaka to come back to her state so as to enable the government see to her training, or be declared wanted after the expiration of the period.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGt7Lgqi-vnBbCLvnfU_Rn4kVAX8ISXnnV3oHV-Jv5xA83P9a8e_3ECJQdBan42orW0LAwmZmRQPr37cejE_AsmZsiQ8G0_rz7v9mFNKZc0gj-vY_7nE-neOVlHMVI39YJyLCQSkRVwSUr/s1600/FB_IMG_1471896774598.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGt7Lgqi-vnBbCLvnfU_Rn4kVAX8ISXnnV3oHV-Jv5xA83P9a8e_3ECJQdBan42orW0LAwmZmRQPr37cejE_AsmZsiQ8G0_rz7v9mFNKZc0gj-vY_7nE-neOVlHMVI39YJyLCQSkRVwSUr/s320/FB_IMG_1471896774598.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> The governor made this known on Sunday when he paid a visit to the family of the young Uzoamaka at Umunaga Uburu in Ohazara Local Government Area of the state, pointing that Uzoamaka is still the property of Ebonyi State Government.<br /> His words, "We are giving seven days for her to come back. We don't know where she is but we ask that she must return because she is the property of the state.<br /> "The matter is before a competent court; so we may not say much but on what we saw, we felt very bad as a people, as government and as brothers and sisters of Uzoamaka.<br /> "We feel that is a gross violation of her right and man's inhumanity to man. So we are very sad about it and that is why I directed that all of us should come to take over the responsibility of the girl".<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw3wyOiUNk471s7x_ThiLGZer6-t6KnCi3RPxgP98B6D0-DYFHamFR9quNU4J_iyWSXpQho139mmAJwGUy6wIt5iT7iMZPp9d-wgf2CCXNTEME0lWdzHCOFCGp2KZOoWb7LtcfSdy5IeCp/s1600/FB_IMG_1472069859342.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw3wyOiUNk471s7x_ThiLGZer6-t6KnCi3RPxgP98B6D0-DYFHamFR9quNU4J_iyWSXpQho139mmAJwGUy6wIt5iT7iMZPp9d-wgf2CCXNTEME0lWdzHCOFCGp2KZOoWb7LtcfSdy5IeCp/s1600/FB_IMG_1472069859342.jpg" /></a></div> Meanwhile, Uzoamaka has turned down Governor Umahi's offer as she insisted that she loves and enjoys her new home in Port-Harcourt, Rivers State and therefore urged the Ebonyi State governor and government to allow her to remain where she is living presently.<br /> She however, advised the governor to help five other girls who had suffered similar fate in her community.<br /> She said, "I don't want their scholarship. I feel okay and happy where I am. I am enjoying my new home and nobody should disturb me. I won't go back to Ebonyi State. My new mummy will train me in school. I don't want their scholarship because before this incident, they never thought it wise to give me scholarship; it is now they want to give me scholarship. They should go with their scholarship because I am comfortable where I am.<br /> "Five of my friends are also victims of what happened to me. If the governor wants to give me scholarship, he should give it to those ones because nobody has said anything about them".<br /> She also added, "As long as the Coordinator is still in office and the governor is not even saying anything about removing him from office, I will not even step my feet in Ebonyi State, let alone taking any scholarship.<br /> "The governor wants to bring me back so that I will remain under a man who did such evil to me; how will I cope in that particular environment? I am not going anywhere".<br /> As Ebonyi State Government is battling to get the 15-year orphaned Ukamaka Chukwu back to the state, investigations have shown that the woman who had already adopted her, Ms Rita Nnenna Anoh, an Ebonyian who is based in Port-Harcourt, Rivers State, had perfected all the requirements for her adoption and other rehabilitation.</div>
