CHAPTER 36
Michael sat in the house that used to
be occupied by both he and his late
brother ,Solo. He still couldn’t believe
he is dead. He has got himself mixed
up with the wrong people and now he’s
dead cold in.the city mortuary.
He has done exactly had Solo had told
him. He gave Documents and Audio
recordings of his brother’s dealings and
conversation wit the Madam who had
him tried to kill Dolapo!
Only God knows where Solo Got all his
money from but as at the time of his
death, he had nothing less than 4
million nairas in 5 different bank
accounts, leaving Michael as a
beneficiary to all. The money scares
Michael, his brother has saved up to
60,000 US dollars dealing drugs and
hurting people.
A knock came on the door, it startled
Michael. He wasn’t expecting anyone.
He fidgeted in his chair and raise his
palms to cover his ears, hoping the
person would leave but he/she didn’t,
the knocks got even louder and
continuous with a bang! When Michael
finally got the courage to open up,
there was a very big guy standing at
the door, with eyes almost as red as
fire itself and he stood like a mountain,
looking down at Micheal. One arm of his
is bigger than Michael’s thigh. Michael
swallowed hard.
Michael: good afternoon sir!
Man: I’m Capo! Friend of your late
brother. I have a question. Is it true
Solo was murdered by a policeman and
that madam that he used to worked for
ordered it?
His throats felt dry and he hardly could
speak so he just stood there,
nodding.his head Yes. He was too
terrified of this Goliath -looking guy.
Capo nodded and muttered under his
breath.
Capo: She must pay for this! She can’t
just kill my friend and get away with it.
He said that in anger, grunts and
roared like a lion, he looked down at
Michael, wanted to say something but
changed his mind so he turned his back
and began stumbling down the stairs,
with each steps threatening the
building’s foundation. But One thing’s
for sure…. that’s a big angry man on a
revenge mission! Michael decided he
needed a new apartment!
*****************
Mrs. Chioma Adeleke sat in her cell,
fuming in anger but keeping silent. 4
other young ladies who were obviously
night workers shared the cell with her.
One of them was very loud about her
opinions.
LovePeddler: Oga officer come o! Wetin
dey do you now! Abeg release peson

Policeman: Will you shut up there, you

LovePeddler: Talk better jare! I know
sey na this thing you want (She pointed
to her b—–s ) You better come take

something fast, i kuku sabi sey you no

Her other prostitutes joined in the
laughter.
Policeman: Idiots! I’m a policeman! I
serve with integrity!!
LovePeddler: haaaa…. How you know
sey my name na “Integrity “…… Oya
come serve with me naaaaa!
The officer gave up! He took a sheet in
front of him and called out…
Policeman: Mrs. Chioma Adeleke!
You’re are needed.
He led chioma out the room, taking her
towards the interrogation room….
LovePeddler: Na old mama you like
shey…No integrity in that Mr.
Policeman
Chioma ignored the comment and
walked into the interrogation room. In
there already, was cop1 going through
the files handed to him by Michael
Chioma: You b—–d! I will make sure
you rot in jail.
Cop2: Bite your tongue woman! I’m not
the one being charged here, you’re the
one to be jailed .
Chioma! : Oh really?! You thing i will go
to jail? Then you are as naive as a child.
People like me are above the law in
this country, we don’t go to jail.
Cop2: No one is above the law!!
Chioma: I am the law!!
Cop2: Woman! You tried killing your
stepson and you’re not even
remorseful about it.
Chioma: Remorseful?? No!!! All i feel is
regrets….. regreting i haven’t killed
that b—–d earlier.
Cop2: what could a 20 year boy do to
you, to deserve this much hatred ??
Chioma: He did everything wrong by
being born! I love Olatunji in school but
his mind was always on a stupid village
girl. I was seeing other Men but he was
special. He’s a responsible man and
that made it easy to have him take
responsibilities for my pregnancy.
Cop2: My guess is, that pregnancy
wasn’t his… you held him down with a
pregnancy that wasn’t his.
Chioma: Well…. you have a little brain!
If the words gets out and he discovers
Segun isn’t really his, then he’ll divert
all his attention on that b—–d Dolapo
boy! Can’t let that happen .. I never
knew about the b—–d until he was
almost 2 years old, i tried to take care
of it all.
Cop2: What did you do?
Chioma: My sources told me the whole
family, Mary, her husband and their
b—–d son were going on a family
Vacation so i had someone tamper with
their car. But the information i got was
wrong. Only the husband travelled…..
well you know how our roads are here,
he had an accident.
Cop2: (shocked) what???!!!! You killed
Dolapo’s Dad too!!!
Chioma: He died in an accident!!
Cop2: After you had his car tampered
with!!
Chioma: How am i supposed to know
he’ll be the only one in the car???
Cop2: You deserve to be sent to the
worst prison ever!! How about Solo?
Chioma: That incompetent idiot! He
had to be silenced too…… Anyways,
what is your name Mr. Cop? Tell me
your name so i can tell your superiors
to have you discharged, you have mess
with me and i will make sure you lose
this job you love so much.
Before he could say another word, the
door flung open and an officer came in,
whispered into his ears and left just
quickly as he came.
Cop2 banged his fists on the table in
anger, sweat running down his temple.
He drew a long and deep breath before
he finally spoke.
Cop2: I’ve been told you’re to be
released immediately…. all charges
are to be dropped..
Mrs. Chioma Adeleke; got up with a
smile on her face. She dusted her dress
and looked at him….
Chioma: I told you….. people like me,
don’t go to jail. We’re the law!
And just after about an hour of being
arrested, Chioma walked out of the
police headquarters, all charges against
her dropped, a police vehicle had been
assigned to take her back home with
an apology letter for every
inconveniences caused.
