******

The President hesitated as
Kareem and Michael walked
towards her, the president
looked up to Kareem and
smiled

“Kareem, it is a pleasure
seeing you”
“You still have that diplomatic
sound in your voice when you
try to assure people that
everything is going fine
Madam President but we have
to get going before people
get suspicious”

The President got into the car
and Kareem climbed in after
her as her aide got into the
front seat and the car drove
off. Suddenly, more lights
came on in the distance as
other drivers got the order to
move out and they started to
drive off. The President’s car
joined the convoy somewhere
in the middle to ensure that
there were some cars in front
and behind them.
“Well we have done our job;
let’s see what waits for us in
Abuja”

Shade said as they all climbed
into the plane. The pilot came
to the back and said;

“We can’t leave those lights
there except you want the air
force to notice and start
tracking us”
Izu asked;

“Can you take off without
them?”

“I can take off in a hurricane if
you want me to”

They all got down and
removed the lights as once
again, the area was only
illuminated by the moon and
the plane taxied and took to
the sky.

Kuyi got off his phone and
said;
“Plane is heading to Abuja
and will touch down shortly.
We better have a plan before
they get here so we do not
waste anytime”

“I still want to know where
you are taking her Kuyi, don’t
make me go track her down
myself”
Kuyi said;

“I could care less if you got on
a plane and went to Lagos
right now. She is safe and
that’s what you need to know.

Right now, we need to get
into that house of yours to get
her daughter and we need
you to tell us how”

Quadri shook his head and
said;

“You can’t just walk stroll into
Aso Rock as if you own the
place: you can’t even do it
with a thousand men. You will
be spotted from a million
miles away and she will be
dead before you get to her
and then there is the issue of
you not knowing exactly
where she is in that huge
house”

Kuyi looked up and said;

“Actually I know where she is.
I was able to track Buba’s call
inside the house and it was
made in the president’s office
itself”
Ifeoma said;

“Okay Quadri, you said they
have men everywhere but you
would also have your people
inside there. The cooks and
everyone else works for you
so what can you tell us”
“The problem is still in getting
your team into the house
without being seen which is
impossible”
Kuyi looked up and said;

“We can use the Tunnels”
Ifeoma looked back at Kuyi;
“What tunnels?”
No one answered the
question and Kuyi and Quadri
were looking into one
another’s eyes”

“can one of you please
answer my question? What
tunnels”

Kuyi broke the lock and said;
“When Aso Rock was built, it
was built by the paranoid
military which did not really
trust even themselves so they
built a network of tunnels
under Abuja itself which lead
into thecity so if anything
happens, they can easily move
the president in and out of
the house safely”

“Those tunnels don’t exist
Kuyi” Ifoema said “They are
just rumors”
Kuyi smiled;

“Maybe you should ask Quadri
here, he knows about them.
he can’t deny it”

“I cannot and will not talk
about the security details of
that house Kuyi, not now and
not ever”

Ifeoma’s eyes widened;
“Are you confirming that they
exist? Oh God, what else goes
on that I don’t know?”
“I am not confirming
anything. just know that I am
not about to do this”

Kuyi walked over to Quadri
and said;

“Tell us where the tunnels are
right now. Her daughter will
be tortured if we do not get
her out of there before we
put the president in front of a
press conference. They will kill
her just to satisfy their lust for
vengeance you slowpoke”
“And if I do, how am I sure
you would not use that
information later. Perhaps to
get illegal access into the
house”
Kuyi was furious now.
“if I wanted to know where
your tunnels are, I would put
some guys in your team and
find out. I have better ways of
getting the information I
want.”
Quadri sighed and walked
over to the controls which
control the screens, he typed a
series of commands and one
of the screen showed a series
of passages
“Okay. We have a network of
them which are all manned by
my men. There are exits all
over Abuja and they lead to
different places in the House.
So we can get to most of the
rooms we want to. Since you
said she is in the president’s
office. We can use them and
bring your team through the
secret stairway which will
bring them directly into the
Office”
