Must Read: Memoirs Of Dying And Living

“It was politically motivated” said Tonie. “Ibinabo was supporting a rival political party from that of Ben’s brother. The politicians had paid heavily and wanted his rivals eliminated. The man gave orders which Ibinabo followed to the later at the detriment of his friends and their alliances”.


“We didn’t have Intel that Sebastian (Ben’s brother) was supporting the rivals cos he was of another family. Ben was then in year and new to the group. His younger brother was though two years younger was two years ahead of him in school cos he gained admission b4 Ben”
continued Tonie.

“When the quanta finally escalated there were some nasty shootouts and Seb was caught in the crossfire after his group tried to attack a convoy carrying the said politicians” said Tonie.

“It was a nasty event cos Seb’s group ran into Ibinabo’s of which I was then one of his crew and as we were shooting eachother the vigilantes of Dangari town made up of mostly their youths heard the shots thought it was a robbery and joined in so we were shooting on 3 fronts. Alot of people lost their lives b4 one could say jack robinson” continued Tonie.

Tonie paused and then continued “I knew Seb one on one, he was a very good guy but was caught in the crossfire.

When the shooting ended Seb was lying in a pool of blood but he would have survived.

The politician came out of his bullet proof car and told his boys which was lead by Ibinabo to finish off the ones alive. He got into his car and drove away”.

Tonie paused one more time and then finished “Ibinabo executed Seb right infront me”.

‘U may have heard of the event where a lot of people were shot in one northern town 3 years back. Yes that was the event. We had to go underground after that cos the police and SSS were picking boys anyhow after that event”, continued Tonie.
