The Guardians - Season 1 - Episode 92

☆☆********

Kareem looked at the
president and said;
“Are you ready for this? It can
get mad out there”

“I was ready for it the day I
was declared winner of the
presidential elections”

The aide looked back and
said;
“I will be at hand to try to help
answer the difficult questions;
you just started and explain it
like you did at the Tetuan
camp”

Kareem said;
“Peter, conference room
please”

Peter got out of the car and
saw the three SSS agents
around the car; one of them
on his side while the other
two took positions at thetwo
doors on the other side
where the President and her
aide were. He looked around
and said;
“We are heading to the
conference room right room,
and there is a very real chance
that the house might not be
safe as there might be bad
guys around so I don’t think I
have to tell not to allow
anything take your sight
away”

They all nodded and Peter
awaked to the door where
the aide sat and opened the
door. The security agents
moved a little forward with
each of them dipping a hand
into his jacket to hold the
service gun there. The aide
got out with her hair fried
and her make up almost
washed out. She did not have
time to go in front of a mirror
like she always does so she
did not know what she
looked like. She got down and
walked over to the door
where the president was
seated and she opened it
gently.

The guards did not bother
looking at who was coming
down from the car. Some of
them had thought it was the
governor and for some
reason he felt threatened.

When theaide got out and
walked towards the door, one
of them moved around to see
if anyone was around and
then he looked back and
theaide and nodded. The door
opened and the president got
out of the car and close
behind her was the Governor.

Peter looked around as the
guards came around them
and he said;
“Okay, move out”

The two guards walked in
front of them and the third
one walked behind the group
as they made their way
through into the garage and
through the corridor into the
conference.

The conference room had
been set up earlier for a press
chit chat between the press
and the chief of staff on the
recent work going onthe new
Eko Atlantic project. The press
conference was not supposed
to be a live broadcast as most
reporters just film it and use
the clips on their subsequent
new updates later. A lot of the
members of the press were
already used to the usual
briefing and it had become
one which they just attended
for formality.

The members of the press
present on this morning
however had more questions
for the chief of staff as the
project was taking too long
and finances needed
explanations and so the
attendance was strangely
high that morning even
though it was early. Everyone
in the room waited as they
expected they were expecting
the chief of staff.

Suddenly, the door on the
right side of the room opened
and one of the guards walked
in. While there were walking
towards the conference room,
he had called the remaining
security team around the
office itself to tighten the
security and make sure that all
the essential points in the
office was secured. He also
called the mobile police office
in front of the office and
asked that all roads leading
into the office was sealed and
security turned up to the
maximum.

The guard held the door as
stood beside it as the
remaining members of the
group walked in fast. Peter
nodded to the guards and
they went to stand by all the
exits. Most of those inthe
room were expecting the
chief of staff but when they
saw the Governor walk in,
they were surprised and then
someone walked behind him.

The face looked familiar to
most of them but it seemed
impossible that it would be
there at that time and they
stood surprised not knowing
what was happened until a
reporter from Channels
Television said;
“Is that the president?”
It was as though what he said
opened the eyes of everyone
present and they turned their
attentions to the governor
and the president as they
walked slowly to the podium
with the presidential aide
behind they and the cameras
from the press flashed while
some among them made
quick calls to their head office
to inform them of the
situation.
