The Activist - Season 1 - Episode 39

☆☆☆☆☆

The five members of the male species found their way to Shodipo’s house, only to meet his absence. The DPO was fuming, quite furious that his subordinates were dumb enough to allow him slip by, the two officers were not happy (obviously) that they allowed a suspect slip through their hands and Tade and Chuks were tired.

“Sir, we are kind of busy sir, can we take our leave?” Chuks asked.

“Sure. But I may call you if your attention is needed.”

“Yes sir!”
Tade and Chuks left.
Meanwhile, someone was obviously angry at Dotun’s action.

“What is the meaning of what you did, eh Dotun?” Scorpion asked. Dotun looked remorseless.

“Dotun, Dotun, what’s wrong with you? How can you just kidnap a girl like that and deal with her without informing me? Are you trying to usurp my authority?”
“No sir.” Dotun said. He looked at Scorpion with such hate that the Capone was surprised.
“E be like say your wings dey grow, ehn Dotun? You dare disrespect your Capone like that? You dare disrespect me?”
“No sir. I just felt that its not worth bothering you about.

”
“Its not worth what?” Scorpion asked. “Dotun, you are a brilliant mind and a precise marksman, but you don’t employ tactics, you think you can solve all issues with your gun and you are so confident in your ability that you don’t check your opponent is or his capabilities.”

“The Ronke you are telling me is not worth bothering is the daughter of a powerful family in this area. They will use all means to find who did this and I mean all means, including ‘juju’.”

“I will deal with them all.”
“A whole family? Don’t forget that they have all sorts of protection.”
“I will deal with them sir, with your permission.”

“You have my permission.” As Dotun was set to leave, he held him back and hugged him.

“I know I don’t need to say this, but be careful.”

“Yes sir.” Dotun said, walking away. As he stepped off, he called Mutiu, who was waiting outside their meeting place.
“Call in the ‘Made Men’.”
Thirty minutes later, Mutiu was in Dotun’s place with five other guys; Mayowa, Taiwo, Soji,Hariz and Sunday. Sunday was the most recent person to join the group.
Dotun looked at them all and told them all that transpired between him and Scorpion.
“Boss, na gbege be that o! Wetin we go do?” Mayowa asked.

“First of all, who be the person wey go checkout the lady? How come we no sabi all these things na?”
“Ask Mutiu! Na him Boss give work to.” Sunday told the group.
“Come here, no make me vex dash you slap! You wey just join yesterday wan dey talk rubbish!”

“Shut up, both of you!” Dotun said. “See as you are bickering like women! Mutiu, I want you to investigate everything about her family- Everything! Including the thick head of the family! I want to know what makes them strong, what political and economic links they have, what kind of security they use, both white collar and black-hand(juju). You understand me?”

“Yes sir!” Mutiu said.
“No mistakes and I mean it!”
“Sunday, you will be on the watch out in school. Everything and anything as regarding the case, including the police reports must be noted. I want information by the hour, you understand?”
Sunday nodded his head.
“And watch Shodipo closely. Now that its getting hot he may crack and tell the police what happened in his house. In fact, go check what’s happening in that house now!”
“Yes sir. Can I go?”
“Your ‘mumu’ must have been made in heaven! Go!”

Sunday stood up and left.

“I will call the rest of you when the time is right. Just be prepared!”
They stood up and left.

Meanwhile, Tade was calling Wande trying to gist with her on the phone when another student stopped him.

“I need to show you something.”
Tade was soon showed a video which was apparently shot from Shodipo’s compound. He saw as Dotun and his group went into his room and after about an hour, dragged a dying Ronke out of his room. The person that seemed to be recording the video could not get much on it again.

“Soji, where did you get this?” Tade asked.
“I recorded this.” Soji replied. “Let me explain……….”

Sunday watched from a vintage point on the bungalow facing Shodipo’s place. From what he could gather from some folks he made friends with, Shodipo apparently fled the area some days ago and the police had come twice to look for him. He had already briefed Dotun on the development, which forced a smirk out of Dotun.

Meanwhile,Sunday was tired of watching the house and decided to check school environment. On getting to campus, he found himself going to Law, figuring out that Shodipo could still find a way to attend classes.

As he walked to the Faculty, he saw two guys talking from a distance. As his curiosity grew, he made a move to find what attracted him to them.

He was closing in on Tade and Soji!
