Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 2 - Episode 58

Tony gasped as Gilbert, Abby, Angela, an unfamiliar woman, and Rhoda? What…..how was Rhoda here, they all entered the office.

Tony was sweating profusely. Gawd, this was tough.

The ASP looked at him enquiringly ‘these are the witnesses, can you identify any of them?’
Tony was speechless as he looked at all of them ‘whats this all about?’ he asked finally finding his voice ‘Rhoda? Angela? Abby? How..how are you….i dont understand’
‘we’ve already interviewed them before but for your sake, we would interview them again. He took a book from his table and opened it.
‘Gilbert Martins?’ he called.

Gilbert signified by raising up his hands ‘i’m the one’
‘tell us what you saw’
Gilbert cleared his throat ‘i was at Amy, my girlfriend’s house last week when the door bell rang. I was in the restroom, relieving myself while she went to answer the door. I heard
Alice’s voice, i’m sure of that. I just went straight to Amy’s bedroom, i didnt bother coming out because i and Alice arent in good terms. And then, the next thing i heard was a gunshot, i rushed out in time and saw Alice tuck the gun into her jean pocket, then she spat on Amy’s face and then…then,’ Gilbert stopped as tears trickled down his cheeks ‘she left. I couldnt confront her because i thought i was the only one who saw her, i was afraid she would kill me if she saw me and….she would never be caught. I really loved my girlfriend and vowed to avenge her death. That was why i reported to the police. But then, i later found out that her neighbour here,’ he pointed at the fat woman besides him ‘also saw Alice’
‘una good afternoon oo. My name na madam Salome. I be Amy neighbour, her window face my doormot so that day, last week monday, my pikin been no well. So i say make i go buy medicine for am for one pharmacy wey near us. So, as i dey comot, na i hear bang! I fear, my head be like sey e wan fall for ground, i con say make i peep for window as the window kukuma near me. As i go there go peep, ne i see one woman oo.

I be wan run, na she con dey comot, na i pick race oo. I no wan die’ the fat and ugly woman explained.

Tony closed his eyes, this cant be happening, no. His Alice wasnt a killer. He knew her.
‘my name is Abigail, i am Maria’s best friend. We shared alot of secrets so Maria confided in me that she hated her father’s concubine……’
‘she is my fiancee, not my concubine!’ Tony flared.
‘please, let her speak’ the ASP said.
Abby shrugged and continued ‘and she said that there was something fishy about this woman. That this woman hated her. And there was one day, she said something. She said, that the woman, Alice by name, served her a meal, but she wasnt hungry so she gave it to a neighbour’s dog, and the next day, she heard the dog died from food poisoning. She was suspicious, but hid her thoughts. Then, another time, she was standing at the balcony, then she felt a presence behind her, then she turned, behold she saw Alice standing behind her with a knife just inches apart from her back. She said assuming she was a second late in turning back, she would have died’
