[knocking]
[Ene] Is this the reason
you brought me here?
[in Pidgin] She said she
has something to tell you.
[sighs]
[deep breath] Enewan.
[lighter clicking]
[in Pidgin] I'm sorry.
[in Ibibio] Make it quick, not
everybody is a thief like you.
[sighs]
Enewan.
[in Ibibio] Ene, don't be upset.
[in Pidgin] I'm sorry.
[Inem] Look… [sighs]
[in Pidgin] There's something
I want to talk to you about.
It's not something that
I should discuss here.
- [in ibibio] Why not?
- [in ibibio] It's a secret between us.
I don't want anyone to hear us.
[in Pidgin] What is this thing?
[in Ibibio] Why can't
you talk about it here?
[Inem] Enewan, just,
please…
[in Pidgin] Let's go.
[Ene, in Ibibio] What
nonsense is this?
Huh? [in Ibibio] What
is the meaning of this?
[Inem] Ene.
Huh?
[in Pidgin] I know that
you knew I stole Scar's money.
The reason I brought you
here is to let you know that,
that there's a reason. [in
Ibibio] I have my reasons.
[in Ibibio] What reasons?
What stupid reasons?
Were you going to watch everyone
get killed before you talked?
[in Pidgin] Were you going to keep quiet
and get us killed before saying something?
Just because you have some
stupid sense of entitlement.
You are a street
girl, show yourself.
[in Pidgin] It's not
as easy as you think.
[in Pidgin] What makes it hard?
- [in Pidgin] I stole Scar's money for you.
- [indistinct]
I stole it for Shalewa.
- [indistinct]
- I stole it for Mommy T.
I stole that money
for our freedom.
You come back here and think
you're going to be free?
[in Ibibio] Keep quiet, Enewan!
You think I don't see it?
That sneer in your eyes
when I'm not looking?
[in Pidgin] Let me
tell you something.
Once upon a time
in Shanty Town,
I was a boss.
But that was then.
There's nothing attaching
me to that position,
so don't think you and
I are in a competition.
[in Pidgin] You used to have
it but you no longer do.
If you don't have motives,
why are you back here?
What is your plan?
And why the fuck did
you steal Scar's money?
Why the fuck did
you kill Jackie?!
[dramatic music playing]
[in Pidgin] You just killed one
of us like that, no conscience.
You'll answer my question,
since we're in the business of
asking each other questions.
So you'll tell me why
you killed Jackie.
[Inem] Sis, calm down.
[in Pidgin] I just
want you to know that
there's a way we
can help each other.
Shut up! I'll ask the questions.
How do you know?
- [yelps]
- [gunshot]
[grunts]
- [groaning]
- [grunting]
- Relax! Relax!
- Leave me!
- Relax!
- [coughing]
I said relax!
I didn't come here to
hurt you, you hear me?
Relax!
Okay?
Femi!
[in Pidgin] What happened?
Why did you leave me here all
afternoon? Where did you go?
Where?
[in Pidgin] Thank God I've not
ordered yet. How would I pay?
By sleeping with one
of the staff, maybe.
- [in Pidgin] What?
- When were you going to tell me?
See,
I can…
[gasps]
[ominous music playing]
It was another
day at the office,
and I got a call
from an agent
who told me that they had found
a girl who
looked just like me.
[Inem] She was…
terminally ill
and dying
on a hospital bed in the prison.
Funny that I should meet my
sister for the very first time,
in almost 20 years,
on her deathbed.
We had been separated in an
attack, that left my father dead
and I injured.
I was rescued by one of the
fishermen and taken to an orphanage.
Adoption saved my life,
but not my sister's.
It was from her dying lips
I heard about Shanty Town.
I mean, the DSS already
had an ongoing operation
to crack down on
drugs on the streets.
But what she told me was
more than we ever
thought possible.
She had just one month to live.
But that was enough for me
to get enough information
from my sister
to enter Shanty Town
as an undercover operative.
I'm in.
However,
I had made a promise to Inemesit,
to do something for you.
[Ene groans]
[chuckles]
Unaware of all of the girls that
you had butchered
with the aid of Scar.
Inem.
[in Ibibio] He is heartless.
Look,
Scar would have killed me.
He would have killed
me, if I didn't…
if… if I didn't…
show him that I was useful,
if I was good for something.
So when you ask me
what my business is,
being here,
or what the plan is.
The plan is to bring
Scar to the ground,
to burn Shanty
Town to the ground.
And by God,
I will save all the girls,
and you are going to help me.
Whether you like it or not.
[Colorado] Everybody down!
Down!
[in Pidgin] I'm upset.
- [thud]
- [shouts]
[Colorado, in Pidgin] I'm upset.
Everybody down!
[in Pidgin] Whoever tries me
will bear the consequences.
I'm upset.
[in Ibibio] I can't do it.
Take everything from
me, I can't do it...
Enewan! You are going to do it.
It is not a request.
Oh, fuck! Fuck!
Fuck. What the fuck?!
[Shalewa] This is serious.
- [Femi] Wha...
- [in Pidgin] You have to…
- Fuck. Fuck.
- What are you doing?
[in Pidgin] I'm upset.
Inem…
[in Pidgin] I'm at the
bar that you just left.
The client I couldn't tell you about
is Femi Fernandez. Femi Fernandez.
[Shalewa] We're
in trouble, Scar…
[in Pidgin] Shit. Scar
and his boys are here.
[Shalewa, in Pidgin]
Please, come and help us.
I can send them my live location. I
can send them my live location. Shit.
[Femi breathing heavily]
[Scar] Olufemi…
[in Yoruba] And his lover.
[screaming]
Agent Uju!
[Inem] What the hell
are you doing here?
New developments, Amanda.
I want you to look at this.
It was taken at
Scar's drug house.
Look carefully if you can
recognize anyone there.
I know this guy.
Enewan.
- [in Pidgin] I don't know the person.
- Look at it!
[in Pidgin] He works
with Chief Fernandez.
Good girl, clean the mess.
That is it. That is it.
It's Chief Fernandez.
He has been the mastermind
of all of these operations.
It's him, we have him.
[Shalewa, in Pidgin, on
phone] Hello, hello Inem.
Please, I need your help.
The client I couldn't tell
you about is Femi Fernandez.
We're in trouble, Scar…
Shit, Scar and his
boys are here. Please…
- [Ene, in Ibibio] Why did Scar…?
- [Shalewa] Come and help us.
[in Ibibio] What does Scar
want with Femi Fernandez?
And why is Shalewa there?
[in Ibibio] This was
what I was telling you.
I told you you're the only
one who can help them.
You can stop this,
you can help her.
- We need to track that, her number.
- [cellphone pings]
It gets better, she just
sent a live location.
Go rally the boys.
This is DKE1077,
we have a code red.
[cellphone ringing]
Hello.
Femi?
[Colorado, in Pidgin] Look, this
is real and there is visual proof.
We've sent a picture and
location to your phone.
If you want your ring and your
son in one piece, Mr. Man,
come to the location alone.
I repeat, come to
the location alone.
I'm upset.
[call disconnects]
Enewan.
I need you to listen to me.
You are going to go
back to Shanty Town
and look for Mommy T,
and you will do exactly
as I ask you to.
[in Pidgin] I beg you
in the name of God.
You will do exactly
as I ask you,
in case anything goes sideways.
Do you understand?
Good.
Turn this car around.
- Felix.
- [Felix] Yes, boss.
- Call the accountant, and the boys.
- Yes, boss.
These children, they
will never learn.
[in Yoruba] I will
fuck these bastards up.
[coughs]
Ene.
[Ene] Mommy.
[in Pidgin] You'll have to
take it easy, calm down.
What we want to do now… [coughs]
…if we do it right,
for the first time in our lives,
[in Pidgin] that
means we'll be free.
[in Yoruba] Do you understand?
[in Yoruba] I've
heard you, Mommy.
[Ashanti] Mommy T.
Mama E.
[in Pidgin] What's going on?
Where's Colorado
and the other boys?
[dramatic music playing]
[in Pidgin] There's
trouble in the hood.
[ominous music playing]
[inaudible]
[Chief Fernandez] Scar…
[groans, chuckles]
[in Yoruba] What's going on?
[in Pidgin] I told
you he'd come.
That you did.
This was unexpected.
[Dame Dabota] Hm.
Aboderin,
[in Yoruba] you are a traitor.
So what's going on here?
Well, I'm sure you've
seen those movies
where the villain explains
her plans to the protagonist.
Well, the thing is,
you're not the protagonist,
and this isn't a movie.
[Chief Fernandez laughing]
So I guess this is the
point where I say to you,
"Oh, I'm stepping down from
the gubernatorial race"?
[laughing]
Give up the gubernatorial
race. [shrieks]
Hm.
Mwah.
[Femi breathing heavily]
Daddy's imagination
is quite wild.
But I'm not one
for long speeches.
Goodbye, Oluyomi.
[gunshot]
[gunshot]
- [guns firing]
- [explosion]
[gunshots continue]
[Chief's thug] We have
to go. We have to go.
[groans]

[Scar groaning]

- [grunts]
[groaning and grunting continue]
Mama!
What are you doing here?
Are you okay? Are you hurt?
I'm good, just get me to safety.
Agent Kay,
the two of you.
The rest of you, let's go!
[groaning, grunting]
[yelling]
[groaning]
[straining, groaning]
[groaning]
[both groaning]
[in Yoruba] You've been
showing off, right?
Isn't that right?
I will kill you.
- Motherfucker.
- [groaning]
[officer] Come on.
[both groaning, grunting]
[metal clanging]
[grunting]
[screaming]
- [screaming continues]
- [Scar grunting]
[screaming and grunting fade]
[groans]
[in Yoruba] You motherfucker.
[Scar, in Yoruba] You
were showing off, right?
[in Yoruba] Who are you?
[panting]
[groaning]
[dramatic music playing]
[Chief's thug] You!
[gunshot]
One down.
Are you okay?
We got you. We got you.
We got you.
[Scar] Hey.
[groaning]
[in Yoruba] Please!
Who is there?
- [groaning]
- [woman gasps]
[woman 2 shrieks]
[in Yoruba] Fuck you all.
[Scar speaks indistinctly]
Ene.
[in Pidgin] What…
[groans]
What are you doing?
[mumbling]
[screams]
[groans]
[breathing heavily]
Hmm.
Call Mama.
Go.
Call Mama.
[in Pidgin] Please.
[groans, grunts]
[groaning] Mama.
[Scar groans]
[in Pidgin] What is this?
Huh?
[in Yoruba] Are you
watching a movie?
[shouts] Get out!
Motherfuckers.
[Mama Tornado] Scar…
[sighs]
Mama…
[Scar] Mama…
Mama…
[in Pidgin] Is this
what you're looking for?
Mama.
[in Yoruba] Mama,
don't let them kill me.
Mama, your son is dying.
Please.
[Scar screams]
[groaning]
[Scar breathing heavily]
[loud groan]
- [thud]
- [Scar groaning]
Mama.
[Scar panting]
[grunts]
For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- [Scar screaming, groaning]
- [chanting]
[chanting stops]
[Mama Tornado
chanting mournfully]
[Femi breathing heavily]
Listen,
my dad is many things, but this?
Your father runs a drug cartel,
a prostitution ring,
human parts black markets,
amongst many other things.
He's been doing
this for decades.
How do I know this?
Her.
She is an accomplice and
that's why she's in handcuffs.
I'm just a victim.
[Inem] It's enough, Enewan.
Your father, Fernandez,
builds his wealth
by burning down communities
of innocent slum dwellers.
These are the pictures of the communities
that your father's accomplices burnt down.
He does keep a strict record.
And then, he turns around,
provides for these
unsuspecting slum-dwellers,
and in the public eye
he is the philanthropist.
Whereas in the real sense,
he is getting major
kickbacks from the government
as a contractor, to
reconstruct these places,
which he turns into small estates
for his own personal gains.
[in Pidgin] The DSS has a strong
case against you and your father.
I've told them you have
nothing to do with it.
Right?
[Inem] Femi, I believe Shalewa.
But you,
you have to give me something.
[sighs]
But I don't know anything
about his businesses. [sighs]
What do you want from me?
[Shalewa, in Pidgin]
Give us an invitation
to your father's party,
the election party
he's having soon.
I don't understand.
That's it?
[Inem] Uh uh.
Also, the access
to his computers,
all of it.
[sighs]
[host] Without any further ado,
let's make welcome
the man of the moment.
A philanthropist,
a businessman,
a man with a golden heart,
a model citizen of Lagos State,
my governor, and the future
governor of Lagos State,
Chief Dacosta Oluyomi Fernandez!
[crowd clapping]
Like the comedians will say,
if you're not ready for me, should
I go back and come and… [indistinct]
[whistling, cheering, clapping]
[chuckling]
Thank you very much.
Very distinguished
ladies and gentlemen,
let me put it on record,
that the only reason
that I'm here today,
it is because of your
inestimable support.
My father used to say,
- [in yoruba] "Every cloud…"
- [all, in Yoruba] "…has a silver lining."
[in Yoruba] Enemies of
progress… [chuckles]
They tried…
they tried to prevent me
from seeing today.
In fact, let me rephrase that,
they tried to prevent us
from seeing today.
Yet,
here we are,
bigger and better.
[whooping, clapping]
In fact, for emphasis,
let's say that again.
Here we are, bigger and...
[all] Better!
- [Chief Fernandez] Bigger and...
- Better!
[Chief Fernandez] And so,
very distinguished
ladies and gentlemen,
without wasting
more of your time,
I present to you,
my vision of Lagos State.
[ominous music playing]
[groaning, on video]
- [whip cracking, on video]
- [Inem screaming, groaning]
[crowd gasps]
[groaning and grunting
continues on video]
- [crowd exclaims]
- [woman] Assault! Rape!
[Inem] Chief Dacosta Fernandez.
You are under arrest
for multiple charges
of money laundering,
drug trafficking,
amongst many others.
You have the right to remain
silent, for whatever you say
can and will be used against you
in the court of law.
[in Yoruba] Relax.
There's nothing that has happened
here today that will change anything.
[indistinct chatter among crowd]
[crowd heckling]
Despite her involvement in the
'alleged' kidnap of Femi Fernandez,
without concrete proof,
Dame Dabota was never tried and she
remains the governor of Lagos state…
…for now.
For raping an officer of the law,
Chief Fernandez was sentenced
to life imprisonment in the
newly constructed Ikunrin
maximum security prison. His
retinue of lawyers are currently
appealing this verdict. In
Chief Fernandez's absence,
the Accountant has a tenuous
hold on chief's business empire.
Colorado's whereabouts remain
unknown. Scar's body was never found!
And the peace and victory the
women of Shanty Town won, is only…
…temporary.
[drumming]
[drumming stops]
[in Yoruba] Traitors
get punished.
Whoever betrays us
will face the consequences.
Whoever betrays us
will face the consequences.
Whoever betrays us will face
the consequences. Yes or no?
[cult] Yes!
- Yes or no?
- [cult] Yes!
[drumming resumes]
[drumming intensifies]

[Shalewa] Shit! Fuck! [panting]
Shit!
[in Pidgin] Shalewa, I beg you in the name
of God, please pull yourself together.
- [in Pidgin] Please!
- Shit.
[Inem, in Pidgin] Go. You've
spent too much time here.
[panting] Jackie?
Inem!
How?
Just calm down. Calm down.
[in Pidgin] Just act normal.
Go and meet your client, okay?
We will meet in Shanty, just go.
Please, don't disappoint me. I
beg you in God's name, please!
Please, Shalewa, please!
Just go. Just go,
it's okay. It's okay.
Go.
- Okay.
- [indistinct]
Fuck!
Fuck!
[gasps] Oh, Jesus!
[sobbing]
[shrieks] Oh, God. [panting]
[groans]
Oh, Jesus!
Oh, God. [in
Ibibio] Wow, Enewan!
Oh, God. [breathing heavily]
[groans, sobs]
[theme music playing]
[double gunshots]
[theme music fades]
[knocking]
[Ene] Is this the reason
you brought me here?
[in Pidgin] She said she
has something to tell you.
[sighs]
[deep breath] Enewan.
[lighter clicking]
[in Pidgin] I'm sorry.
[in Ibibio] Make it quick, not
everybody is a thief like you.
[sighs]
Enewan.
[in Ibibio] Ene, don't be upset.
[in Pidgin] I'm sorry.
[Inem] Look… [sighs]
[in Pidgin] There's something
I want to talk to you about.
It's not something that
I should discuss here.
- [in ibibio] Why not?
- [in ibibio] It's a secret between us.
I don't want anyone to hear us.

Just because you have some

You are a street

I stole it for Shalewa.
- [indistinct]
- I stole it for Mommy T.
I stole that money
for our freedom.
You come back here and think

He has been the mastermind
of all of these operations.
It's him, we have him.
[Shalewa, in Pidgin, on
phone] Hello, hello Inem.
Please, I need your help.
The client I couldn't tell
you about is Femi Fernandez.
We're in trouble, Scar…
Shit, Scar and his
boys are here. Please…
- [Ene, in Ibibio] Why did Scar…?
- [Shalewa] Come and help us.
[in Ibibio] What does Scar
want with Femi Fernandez?
And why is Shalewa there?
[in Ibibio] This was
what I was telling you.
I told you you're the only
one who can help them.
You can stop this,
you can help her.
- We need to track that, her number.
- [cellphone pings]
It gets better, she just
sent a live location.
Go rally the boys.
This is DKE1077,
we have a code red.
[cellphone ringing]
Hello.
Femi?
[Colorado, in Pidgin] Look, this
is real and there is visual proof.
We've sent a picture and
location to your phone.
If you want your ring and your
son in one piece, Mr. Man,
come to the location alone.
I repeat, come to
the location alone.
I'm upset.
[call disconnects]
Enewan.
I need you to listen to me.
You are going to go
back to Shanty Town
and look for Mommy T,
and you will do exactly
as I ask you to.
[in Pidgin] I beg you
in the name of God.
You will do exactly
as I ask you,
in case anything goes sideways.
Do you understand?
Good.
Turn this car around.
- Felix.
- [Felix] Yes, boss.
- Call the accountant, and the boys.
- Yes, boss.
These children, they
will never learn.
[in Yoruba] I will
fuck these bastards up.
[coughs]
Ene.
[Ene] Mommy.
[in Pidgin] You'll have to
take it easy, calm down.
What we want to do now… [coughs]
…if we do it right,
for the first time in our lives,
[in Pidgin] that
means we'll be free.
[in Yoruba] Do you understand?
[in Yoruba] I've
heard you, Mommy.
[Ashanti] Mommy T.
Mama E.
[in Pidgin] What's going on?
Where's Colorado
and the other boys?
[dramatic music playing]
[in Pidgin] There's
trouble in the hood.
[ominous music playing]
[inaudible]
[Chief Fernandez] Scar…
[groans, chuckles]
[in Yoruba] What's going on?
[in Pidgin] I told
you he'd come.
That you did.
This was unexpected.
[Dame Dabota] Hm.
Aboderin,
[in Yoruba] you are a traitor.
So what's going on here?
Well, I'm sure you've
seen those movies
where the villain explains
her plans to the protagonist.
Well, the thing is,
you're not the protagonist,
and this isn't a movie.
[Chief Fernandez laughing]
So I guess this is the
point where I say to you,
"Oh, I'm stepping down from
the gubernatorial race"?
[laughing]
Give up the gubernatorial
race. [shrieks]
Hm.
Mwah.
[Femi breathing heavily]
Daddy's imagination
is quite wild.
But I'm not one
for long speeches.
Goodbye, Oluyomi.
[gunshot]
[gunshot]
- [guns firing]
- [explosion]
[gunshots continue]
[Chief's thug] We have
to go. We have to go.
[groans]
[groans]
[Scar groaning]
[yelling]
[yells]
[dramatic music playing]
- [groaning]
- [grunts]
[groaning and grunting continue]
Mama!
What are you doing here?
Are you okay? Are you hurt?
I'm good, just get me to safety.
Agent Kay,
the two of you.
The rest of you, let's go!
[groaning, grunting]
[yelling]
[groaning]
[straining, groaning]
[groaning]
[both groaning]
[in Yoruba] You've been
showing off, right?
Isn't that right?
I will kill you.
- Motherfucker.
- [groaning]
[officer] Come on.
[both groaning, grunting]
[metal clanging]
[grunting]
[screaming]
- [screaming continues]
- [Scar grunting]
[screaming and grunting fade]
[groans]
[in Yoruba] You motherfucker.
[Scar, in Yoruba] You
were showing off, right?
[in Yoruba] Who are you?
[panting]
[groaning]
[dramatic music playing]
[Chief's thug] You!
[gunshot]
One down.
Are you okay?
We got you. We got you.
We got you.
[Scar] Hey.
[groaning]
[in Yoruba] Please!
Who is there?
- [groaning]
- [woman gasps]
[woman 2 shrieks]
[in Yoruba] Fuck you all.
[Scar speaks indistinctly]
Ene.
[in Pidgin] What…
[groans]
What are you doing?
[mumbling]
[screams]
[groans]
[breathing heavily]
Hmm.
Call Mama.
Go.
Call Mama.
[in Pidgin] Please.
[groans, grunts]
[groaning] Mama.
[Scar groans]
[in Pidgin] What is this?
Huh?
[in Yoruba] Are you
watching a movie?
[shouts] Get out!
Motherfuckers.
[Mama Tornado] Scar…
[sighs]
Mama…
[Scar] Mama…
Mama…
[in Pidgin] Is this
what you're looking for?
Mama.
[in Yoruba] Mama,
don't let them kill me.
Mama, your son is dying.
Please.
[Scar screams]
[groaning]
[Scar breathing heavily]
[loud groan]
- [thud]
- [Scar groaning]
Mama.
[Scar panting]
[grunts]
For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- For freedom.
- [Scar screaming, groaning]
- [chanting]
[chanting stops]
[Mama Tornado
chanting mournfully]
[Femi breathing heavily]
Listen,
my dad is many things, but this?
Your father runs a drug cartel,
a prostitution ring,
human parts black markets,
amongst many other things.
He's been doing
this for decades.
How do I know this?
Her.
She is an accomplice and
that's why she's in handcuffs.
I'm just a victim.
[Inem] It's enough, Enewan.
Your father, Fernandez,
builds his wealth
by burning down communities
of innocent slum dwellers.
These are the pictures of the communities
that your father's accomplices burnt down.
He does keep a strict record.
And then, he turns around,
provides for these
unsuspecting slum-dwellers,
and in the public eye
he is the philanthropist.
Whereas in the real sense,
he is getting major
kickbacks from the government
as a contractor, to
reconstruct these places,
which he turns into small estates
for his own personal gains.
[in Pidgin] The DSS has a strong
case against you and your father.
I've told them you have
nothing to do with it.
Right?
[Inem] Femi, I believe Shalewa.
But you,
you have to give me something.
[sighs]
But I don't know anything
about his businesses. [sighs]
What do you want from me?
[Shalewa, in Pidgin]
Give us an invitation
to your father's party,
the election party
he's having soon.
I don't understand.
That's it?
[Inem] Uh uh.
Also, the access
to his computers,
all of it.
[sighs]
[host] Without any further ado,
let's make welcome
the man of the moment.
A philanthropist,
a businessman,
a man with a golden heart,
a model citizen of Lagos State,
my governor, and the future
governor of Lagos State,
Chief Dacosta Oluyomi Fernandez!
[crowd clapping]
Like the comedians will say,
if you're not ready for me, should
I go back and come and… [indistinct]
[whistling, cheering, clapping]
[chuckling]
Thank you very much.
Very distinguished
ladies and gentlemen,
let me put it on record,
that the only reason
that I'm here today,
it is because of your
inestimable support.
My father used to say,
- [in yoruba] "Every cloud…"
- [all, in Yoruba] "…has a silver lining."
[in Yoruba] Enemies of
progress… [chuckles]
They tried…
they tried to prevent me
from seeing today.
In fact, let me rephrase that,
they tried to prevent us
from seeing today.
Yet,
here we are,
bigger and better.
[whooping, clapping]
In fact, for emphasis,
let's say that again.
Here we are, bigger and...
[all] Better!
- [Chief Fernandez] Bigger and...
- Better!
[Chief Fernandez] And so,
very distinguished
ladies and gentlemen,
without wasting
more of your time,
I present to you,
my vision of Lagos State.
[ominous music playing]
[groaning, on video]
- [whip cracking, on video]
- [Inem screaming, groaning]
[crowd gasps]
[groaning and grunting
continues on video]
- [crowd exclaims]
- [woman] Assault! Rape!
[Inem] Chief Dacosta Fernandez.
You are under arrest
for multiple charges
of money laundering,
drug trafficking,
amongst many others.
You have the right to remain
silent, for whatever you say
can and will be used against you
in the court of law.
[in Yoruba] Relax.
There's nothing that has happened
here today that will change anything.
[indistinct chatter among crowd]
[crowd heckling]
Despite her involvement in the
'alleged' kidnap of Femi Fernandez,
without concrete proof,
Dame Dabota was never tried and she
remains the governor of Lagos state…
…for now.
For raping an officer of the law,
Chief Fernandez was sentenced
to life imprisonment in the
newly constructed Ikunrin
maximum security prison. His
retinue of lawyers are currently
appealing this verdict. In
Chief Fernandez's absence,
the Accountant has a tenuous
hold on chief's business empire.
Colorado's whereabouts remain
unknown. Scar's body was never found!
And the peace and victory the
women of Shanty Town won, is only…
…temporary.
[drumming]
[drumming stops]
[in Yoruba] Traitors
get punished.
Whoever betrays us
will face the consequences.
Whoever betrays us
will face the consequences.
Whoever betrays us will face
the consequences. Yes or no?
[cult] Yes!
- Yes or no?
- [cult] Yes!
[drumming resumes]
[drumming intensifies]
[drumming stops]
