170 THE STORY! (2/2)

We have been cheated! Olure interjected.

Someone name Adeboye suffered us because he had made money and is more powerful than us Ogbon said.

What exactly transpired? you have to be fast about it so I will know if we have to send reinforcement to the person you said left earlier.

Ah! yes, this guy Adeboye we did business with him being that he was the more educated amongst us we allowed him to be the one in charge of signing documents on our behalf, you see we are all from the same village, therefore, we considered each other brothers.

These deal was running into about forty million dollars and we all contributed our share to get this deal, everything ran smoothly when they deal was cleared when we went to get our own share of the deal we got a rude shock when our said brother pretended not the know us not only that but he started behaving formally with us and when we were able to find out from him what was going on? we almost had a heart attack.

He said he never did any business with us we were shocked and nothing we said will cause him to give us our money even when we told him to give us only our capital back, even the god Songo did not touch him to change his mind at all.

They beat our other two brothers up and threw them out of his hotel room where we meet to do business before our brothers could recover from the beatings meted out to them we heard he left the country he has been abroad for five years now, only to come back yesterday.

When we heard the news we informed one of the strong exponents working for our family perhaps you might even know him, he stays in one of the neighboring villages and he goes by the name Fadeyi Ogunjimi!

The saw the student frown his face but said nothing, you know him right? Ogbon asked.

No, but I have heard about him, it's quite expensive to engage his services, but you just said you lost all your money in a dubious business deal with that character, so how can you even pay Fadeyi? his fees are staggering, everybody knows this.

My son! it's been five years already and we have always been very known for our wealth, you should have heard of the Akingbemi's too right? we hold our own when it comes to wealth.

Oti o! ( it's a lie! ) you are from the Akingbemi family? Ifajimi asked looking stunned.

Yes na! that's what we have been telling you since Olure said seeing that the young student seems to be impressed by the Akingbemi name.

Do you know what happened to Fadeyi Ogunjimi that we sent? we didn't even tell this to the student that went after that thief!

What happened to the exponent? Ifajimi asked.

The thief brought with him a white witch who did something to the eyes of the exponent when he tried to see them in his viewing pot, it was such a great tussle and before you know it blood was everywhere, oozing out of his eyes, you.... you should have seen it it was absolutely scary, the more Fadeyi fought with this witch the more blood oozed out of his eyes at an alarming rate.

We were so scared for him he himself had to stop when he couldn't see them again. And he told us he will take some time to heal his eyes and then go back after them again.

This is why we are here now.
