See? I didn't take to long after all.

Well, I guess you didn t, so we go now?

Yes, I have given you some pocket money, right?

Now, remember, stay out of trouble

or you are coming back this weekend.

Come home again? Must I come home every weekend?

This is a college and we have accommodation remember?

Edwin, I know you are a college student, okay? but I made a

promise to my friend Regina that I will look after

you and I intend to fulfill that promise no matter

how many times I have failed her in the past.

But Miss Zaya-

No buts, okay? You re coming home this weekend and

every weekend.

The country is not very safe yet.

But the war is over.

Yes, the war is over. But Watz people,

Watz Republic is not really free yet. The people are still caged

in their minds, okay?

Everything thing takes time and so we take precaution.

Okay?

Ah, Bloody car, what a time to pack up.

You Miss Zaya, need a new car.

Bossangoa needs a new airport, do they have it? No!

They need new shopping malls, New hospitals, new roads.

Do they have it? No Edwin, everything takes time.

Time and money are very scarce commodities and this

lady right here, still has some mileage in her.

No...

Uh, car problem again Miss Zaya?

Car problem again Mr Assanbe.

Well, I may not be able to help with your car, but perhaps

I can help by giving you a ride in my car, this is okay?

Yes, Thank you very much. Edwin come, Mr Assanbe, has been kind

enough to give us a ride. Come, let s go.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

The London Transport map.

What? I'm sorry Sir, I didn't see you were there,

I have finished the collations and sorted all the items ready

for the Monday morning meeting as requested.

It s alright, have a seat.

Actually I was coming by to thank you Zaya.

I don't know what I would have done without the help

from a brilliant assistant like yourself, I appreciate it.

You can take a break now, the cook is making something to eat.

It s the least I can do for taking away your precious

weekend to help me sort things out.

Thank you Sir, It s no problem at all.

I see you like my unconventional taste in art.

It s very, very nice, the names, very original

Yes, I suppose they are.

Who were the seven sisters, Mr Hammersmith?

The seven sisters? Why the interest?

Well, as a child my dad, mum and I, We lived at Enfield Island

Village in Enfield Lock for about 24 months during his post

graduate studies in England. On the weekends my father would

take me shopping, or to watch a movie but, because of the

distance, we used to take the train.

So, we would take the Victoria Line and National rail and two

names stuck in my head for two completely different reasons.

Tottenham Hale and Seven Sisters.

Interesting story, go on.

Okay, well, Tottenham Hale because, that was when we

would switch before crossing over to the National rail. So,

it meant we were close to home.

And the Seven Sisters?

Well, the name is very unusual. As a child, it always intrigued

me. Who where the seven sisters? Where they daughters of a King?

Or were they Servants that made a huge sacrifice for the

kingdom? I don t know, so looking at the map

it brought back memories. So, who were the seven sisters?

And I am supposed to know that because?

Well, You are white and you are from England.

God you are charming. Oh, God.

Hmm. Hmm.

Dom. Romans Conti, French Red Burgundy, one of my

delights. Always has been.

Do you drink?

You should. You should see my wine collection.

Now about those seven sisters, that is a tale of ancient

shrines, fecund families and most of all trees. There have

been a number of myths about the leafy landmark somewhere around

Page Green. There is really nothing of concern there for you

There is really nothing of concern there for you

besides the unusual name. But if I were you, which I'm not.

I'd be more concerned with the modern day seven sisters.

I don t think I follow Sir.

Well, I guess I should tell you a little story as well.

One summer night, if my memory serves me correctly it was

August 28, 1928 at a castle known as Achnacarry, three

men, a Dutchman Henry Deterding nicknamed the Napoleon

of Oil, an English, Sir John Cadman, the director of the

Anglo-Persian Oil Company, now known as BP and an American

Walter C. Teagle representing Standard Oil Company founded by

of course, John D. Rockefeller presently called Exxon.

While these three men met over a three day weekend.

And they decided to stop fighting and start sharing

the world's oil. Their vision was to agree on and share

everything from the control of production zones, to sale

prices, and transport costs, etc, etc, etc.

This meeting unfortunately, gave birth to a cartel.

Do you know what a cartel is young lady?

This one had the aim of dominating the world by

controlling the world s oil.

Soon after that they were joined by four others and came to be

known of course, as the Seven Sisters.

Seven Sisters?

Yes. But bearing no resemblance of course to the seven sisters

of London.

Anyway. Since that meeting, they have been plotting and

scheming and seeking to control the balance of power.

Supporting monarchies and other leaders from Iran to Saudi

Arabia, toppling governments and installing puppets leaders as

well as opposing the creation of OPEC in pursuance of their

own vision. Not many people know this but at the end of the

1960's, the Seven Sisters controlled 85 percent of the

world s oil reserves.

But now new players have joined the great oil game

and they control just 10 percent. So...

with the need for new markets, the new hunting ground is now

Africa. Lovely Africa.

Interestingly though, the Seven Sisters usually come out

out on top, the host countries of course having the worst

time of it all. Libya, Gabon, Nigeria and of course,

recently Sudan.

So with talks of possible oil discovery in the region,

your concern should be these seven Sisters and not

about the name of a London transport station.

Mr. Smith.

Bossman.

Welcome, welcome Mr Smith.

Thank you.

Welcome. So, what you bring for Bossman today?

Well, Mr Bossman we-

What is this Mr Smith? You insult Bossman?

You bring bed friend to arms deal?

Bed friend? What bed friend? Bossman, meet Chelsea,

The best deal broker you ll ever meet.

The best who?

Deal broker.

Mr Smith, I ask you a question.

Mosquito bite you since you come to Watz? Yes?

No.

You suffer malaria, Yes?

No.

No?

What you bring?

This is, uh, this is good. Very good.

Very good. Very good. I like.

Yes. I like. I like very much.

Boys.

Mr Smith, Ghetto.

So, Mr Smith, how much I pay?

Well, you see Bossman, this is free.

Free? Free? I tell you something Mr Smith. Nothing in life is

free, nothing. So, tell me, how much I pay for

to cover merchandise, eh?

Smoke?

No, I brought my favourite.

Thank you.

You know, what I am about to tell you is top secret.

In fact it s so top secret it's not written on any documents.

Chelsea here represents a small group of people that are so deep

behind the scenes they're considered to be a myth, yet

real. Now, in the coming weeks or months, there will

be an announcement of commercial quantity oil discovery in the

South East Province of Watz Republic. Presently this is the

most volatile region in the republic with three warlords

fighting for supremacy. Now,

You my friend control 50% of this and it is no secret

that you would love to control the remaining part,

but standing in your way are two more warlords that

share control of the other 50%.

Impressive, very, very impressive Mr Smith.

You do homework, good, very good. But I ask again,

how much I pay?

My employers are willing to help you take control of the whole

region. We are willing to support you with superior fire

power, intelligence and financially to make your

ambition a reality. Imagine, how rich and powerful you ll be with

full control over the soon to be oil rich region of the country.

Think of what you can do with that sort of wealth and power.

Bossman not talking to you.

Bossman talking to you Mr Smith. I ask for the last time.

How much I pay for to cover merchandise?

Nothing! Just partner with us to progress.

You think Bossman stupid? Yes? No? Bossman no stupid at all.

You want Bossman to surrender to new master, so my people suffer?

Sir, your people have suffered inequality and neglect just

about as anyone else under the mastership of different corrupt

leaders in your country

Which is why we no surrender to another master again.

This deal will be off the table the moment we walk out of those

doors. The people I work for do not have patience for long

negotiations and take a very deem view of uncompromising

subjects.

Bossman subject? You think Bossman subject?

Mr. Smith, you threaten Bossman?

Tell me, how many people you give same deal?

You come here, you give me dynamite, you give my enemy

dynamite, then you light fuse and you go back to your country

you wait, we kill ourselves. For what?

Bossman, listen. This deal puts you in a fantastic position.

You ll be so relevant that the president will want you on his

side.

Bossman, this is probably your best chance at staying

relevant as there will be too many factions fighting for

control over the new oil region.

You and your men, and, your people, as a minority,

you will be overrun very quickly if you don't have a superior

military might. How long do you think you would last as a dog of

war? This is a real chance for you and your people to grab

real power.

So, I suggest that you deal now or your people will suffer an

even greater inequality.

Mr. Smith, the worst form of inequality is to try to make

unequal things equal.

What?

Aristotle. What s the matter? You think Bossman no read? Yes?

As long as poverty and gross inequality persist in our world,

no one, none of us can truly rest. You know who say that?

Plato?

Wrong. Nelson Mandela! Now, go. Get out. Tell your people,

thank you. Tell them, we keep arms but we no join.

We take our chances. Bossman talking to you.

Fellow Countrymen and Women. I Lt. Col. A. Kanze of the Watz

Republic army address you this

Republic Armed Forces. You are all living witnesses to the

harsh economic predicament and uncertainty, which an inept and

corrupt leadership has imposed on our beloved nation for years.

I am referring to the harsh, intolerable conditions under

which the common man is now living, while the rich plunder

and waste our vast resources on vain and senseless spending both

at home and abroad. We have become a beggar nation and

debtor to their foreign collaborators with whom they

have hopelessly mismanaged our economy.

As protectors of our national interest, we have decided to

effect a change in the puppet leadership installed by the

manipulators of our country s affairs in the name of

leadership of the government of the Watz Republic and form a

Federal Military Government.

I am referring to the harsh, intolerable conditions under

which the common man is now living, while the rich plunder

and waste our vast resources on vain and senseless spending both

I'm coming.

Mrs Assanbe, is everything alright?

Please. Can I come in Miss Zaya?

Sure, forgive my manners, please let me get you something.

Some juice and biscuits?

Thank you Miss Zaya.

This is so nice of you.

Have you been following this news? This is a coup isn't it?

I m Afraid so.

What happen s now?

I don t know. I thought we were over this. Just when everything

was becoming normal here.

I am just so worried.

Ah, where s Edwin? Is he not back from school yet?

He is in the hostel he comes home on the weekends.

Ah, that can't be safe?

Quite frankly, I m getting worried myself. I called

him several times but the network is off.

I promised my friend, Regina that I will look after him.

But what if something has happened to him?

No, no, no. Nothing will happen, he ll be just fine. Just fine.

But, maybe, it may not be so bad after all.

Our luck may just be changing. Have you heard

Have you heard the rumor that they have discovered oil here in

our region? Hahaha

No!

No? I thought this would be good news. Imagine the

opportunities, plenty of jobs, plenty of growth. Zaya,

finally our country can develop fast.

Says who? Have you not noticed that wherever they discover oil,

you see turmoil?

Turmoil?

Yes, the problems of oil. The dictionary describes it as a

state of great disturbance, unrest, uncertainty, everything

you name them.

In this country?

In this country my dear. So, please do not wish for oil.

Ask the Nigerians. Trust me Mrs Assanbe, the last thing we need

in this country, is the discovery of oil.

WKIF, the station with Big Chuka. It s a pretty hot day

today in Lagos, Nigeria. Per as usual expect some rains

and when it rains here, you know it pours. It's yours truly

the Fresh One welcoming you as we kickstart

this with two of Nigeria s finest, DJ Jimmy Jatt featuring

Flavour with the smash hit Turn Up!

We are coming to you live from the Lekki-Epe expressway, where

two horrific explosions have

ambulances and fire service are battling to save lives. cause

of explosion is unknown, we bring you more as this unfolds.

Lagos has been thrown in chaos as two devastating blasts claim

lives and properties. 14 persons feared dead and more than 24

others are critically injured as a result of two horrific

explosions along the Lekki-Epe expressway.

Two devastating blast claim lives and properties along the

the Lekki-Epe expressway. 14 persons feared dead and more

than 24 others critically injured as a result of two

horrific explosions.

You cannot be seriously advocating for a state of

emergency in Lagos at this point.

Oh but I am. Insecurity is becoming a norm. This might as

well be an insurgency attack. The question is where are our

security agencies? Where are those that are supposed to be

protecting us? Where are they?

These are the questions we must continually ask our government

and those at the helm of affairs. And we will not stop to

hold them accountable.

These are the issues.

Indeed they are. Thank you very much for doing us.

Thank you very much.

This is where we end the show. Thank you very much for joining

us, my name is Olive Emordi, good night.

Mr Commissioner, we re all aware of the security

concerns in the city presently, as the head of security in

the state, can you assure the people of Lagos

of their lives and properties?

My men are being given enough powers to bring

these nefarious activities to a stop by all means necessary and

to restore peace and stability to the city.

These threats seem to be boiling over, and many Nigerians

are calling for the declaration of a state of emergency.

What s your take on that Mr Commissioner?

There won t be any need for a state of emergency now.

Gentleman, that is as much time as we have to take

questions, all other correspondence shall be made

available to you as events unfold. Thank you

The larger explosion was as a result of a smaller one

that was deliberately set off at an apartment at Number 33

Ayodele Street, in the lekki axis of Lagos. The apartment

belongs to a certain Mr. Demsey Egan, a human rights activist

and a lawyer by profession. He is known to have been very vocal

about the Federal government s handling of

insurgency issues. Arrested twice for his outspokenness, he

has devoted his life to exposing corrupt practices surrounding

the growth of insurgency in Nigeria.

So what exactly are you looking for?

We re looking for foreign currency dealings related to

him, or his associates.

Was anyone at home?

Pardon?

Was anyone home, when the blast occurred?

Yes. One male, 28-30 and one female 26-28.

Did they survive?

Yes. mysteriously, they did.

So, Go get them, they could be the missing links to solving

this affair.

Well, unfortunately the police already has them. They re

currently being kept under high security watch at an undisclosed

hospital, pending if or when they come out of coma.

Well, you get to them first. How you do that is off the records.

Sir.

Colonel Bello.

Sir?

You ll see to it.

Yes Sir.

Police have released cctv footage of two suspects

connected to the recent bomb blast. Now they are asking for

anyone with information about the identities of these two to

come forward. Airports and all borders are on high alert. And

the authorities have said that no one has come forward to claim

responsibility for this attack which is being deemed at many

quarters to be an insurgency.

Rioters have taken over parts of the streets. There are reports

of increased violence, looting and destruction to public

properties and human lives. The police appear to be overwhelmed

by the increase of attacks and the blast of last week.

Egan!

Egan! How do you always get yourself into this situation?

Regina you need to get out of here, this is going to blow

anytime soon. Regina, just go!

Shut up!

Can you walk?

Regina, Regina.

Shhh.

I think they climbed down through the window.

They should be on the street and will be heading your way.

So look out for them. The police men?

The police men? All dead.

I see them, they are in the crowd, quick, they are heading

toward you. I ll fence them in.

Red 4, they are coming your way.

I m in position

Target acquired.

Get in now!

Shoot them!!!

He was actually shooting to kill us.

You are suspected of a terrorist blast in the heart of

the city and your collaborators kill four policemen in the bid

to rescue you from police custody what do you expect?

We didn't do any of that and you know it.

Well now you have. Put your seat belt on.

So, where are we going? Aren't you supposed to be taking us in?

Nah, this time, I m saving your asses

Why?

Get out.

Once again, Why?

Get out now! You out!

Major Egan. You're a difficult man to find.

It s just a precautionary measure. Actually Major, I m

going to need you to trust me.

Now ma'am, please strap his wrists.

Thank you. Now, you strap hers.

Come on major, If I wanted to kill you, I would have shot you

in your head, a long ago. Like I said, I need you to trust me.

Now strap hers.

Thank you.

Ma'am, please sit. Thank you.

You ll be safe here and I ll be right back.

We lost them sir.

And how did you manage to do that?

They had help.

What?

Captain David, he turned on us, Sir.

The slimy bastard, he knew. Now listen, none of them makes it

alive. You get me? None of them

Gentlemen, we have work to do.

The Colonel.

Captain, your job was to bring them in.

It was? cause it sure did not look that way with the trail of

blood you left in the process.

Captain, Bring them in.

No can t do that.

Listen to me you piece of shit. You are way off the

authorization here, if you do this, you are on your own and

your career is over. Do you understand?

I understand that my career was over the moment you put a hit on

me. You think you are safe in your fancy office. But hear

this, if I go down, you go down with me.

Major, listen carefully cause I ll say this only once. What I

What I am am about to tell you might shock you but it is true.

You are presently listed as enemy of state number one for

what you did.

But you set that off.

I did?

Well, I wasn't responsible for the illegal storage of gas

cylinders in a residential area that caused the catastrophic

explosion. Was I? Anyway, as the story goes, with the aid of your

co-conspirators who broke into a heavily guarded hospital you

managed to escape police custody killing four policemen in the

process and you are presently at large. How does that sound?

Not good.

Precisely! And the crowning moment of this was when you

two are supposed to be shot in the head while trying to escape.

Problem solved.

And where do you fit into in this ploy?

A complete wipe off of anything or person that could even in the

remotest way lead back to the Colonel, that is to say,

I was next in line, but I found out. Now I am stuck with you

two losers and with my career more or less over.

Lovely.

Wait, so let me try to understand something here.

This man does all these things to you two and

all you can think of is run?

What happened to standing up for what you believe in and proving

your innocence so help me God?

Yeah, she has a point you know?

She's not just a pretty face.

So we just storm the military headquarters,

with our story we demand to be given a fair trial, hm?

Against a general in the Nigerian Army with our story

alone. Humor me, how do you reckon that will pan out?

Not good I suppose, but it s better than running around and

becoming fugitives.

Colonel Kanze a week ago. Our supposed wonder boy has turned

into a disaster. Since we helped him seize power as the interim

head of state, he has gone from one demand to another.

He is now insisting on being made the permanent and

legitimate president of Watz Republic with sanctions lifted

or he ll sing.

That just leaves me with one thought. Let the damn fools have

their day, what do we care? So this Kanze is taking out

oppositions, and the others are killing themselves, big deal.

Sounds like they re doing us a favor. As long as it doesn't

interfere with our course or lead back to us, I think that s

kind of fine and dandy. You with me?

Well, I think it's time for a toast, but,

let us be reminded why we can just walk into these

people s backyards and operate the way we do time after time.

It is because they do not trust one another and that s the key

to our dominance. So I say, now the fire is lite lets just sit

back and let it burn, hopefully, we ll be able to waltz

right back in and gather the ashes.

It goes without saying that when the political and wealthy

classes continue with their selfish attitudes against the

rest, the pain of the rest will soon engulf them.

When our roads spoil instead of building new roads, they buy

SUV s. When our hospitals collapse-they go abroad for

treatment. They let our schools go rotten by not paying

teachers. The uneducated graduates that you separated

your children from are your today s nemesis.

Time is a settler and the hand of justice is long.

Brothers and sisters, power belongs to the people. Unite,

and stop killing one another. Be your brothers keeper. Fight the

power and not your brothers. Power belongs to the people

The number you have reached is not in service.

Targets have resurfaced, sir

What s our teams ETA?

3 minutes out sir.

Will you stop pacing about, you are freaking me out!

She is taking too long, the freaking food court is just a

few blocks away. Something must be wrong.

Maybe she is in trouble and I should go and look for her.

She must be the one.

Shit!

No freaking way, she just let the hounds to us.

What the fuck? How did you manage to do that from just

going to buy groceries?

I don t know.

You don t know Regina?

No Egan, I don t know. In fact I don t know anything anymore.

It s been a freaking tornado from the moment I got here,

from your rescue mission to set you free from a gas explosion,

to a filing station being raised to the ground and a shoot out at

the hospital. Me constantly dodging and running from

bullets. And now I don t even know where my brother is, Edwin

or my friend Zaya because war has broken out in my country and

I have no clue, where they are or if they are okay.

So Egan, I don t know.

No!

It s not alright. My job isn t to dodge bullets.

I'm not a soldier, you are. You both are. My job is

to save lives and treat the sick, but all we ve

done is leave a trail of dead bodies everywhere we go.

And I m supposed to be alright with that?

I'm a doctor for Christ sake.

Major, we leave now or we die here.

What are you doing?

What I should have done long ago. If we are going to stop

running like this, we ll have to take the bull head-on.

How do you suppose we do that?

Turn ourselves in, but with some sort of insurance policy.

Egan.

Hello?

Hello?

Dave, are you crazy? What are you doing calling me at work?

Don't you know that you are an enemy of the

state right now?

I'm hanging up.

You're going to that to your own person?

Things don't look good for you and that major at all.

We need to come in,

but we ll need some sort of insurance policy.

Can you pull up the records of my dealings with Colonel Bello?

Which ones? The off the record ones?

Yes those ones in particular.

Okay, Forty five minutes to one hour tops.

Yeah, thank you, I owe you one.

Dave, you re sure about this?

I trust her besides, we have no other choice.

That was a close call. I am Logan, Logan Esin.

Zaya, Zaya Rakan. Thank you for saving my life.

Yeah, It was the least I could have done.

My accent right?

You do sound different. So where are you from?

I m a Nigerian.

So what are you still doing here?

I m looking for a friend.

You never heard of Facebook?

Maybe if you showed me where it is.

Hmm, funny, but seriously what are you still doing here? All

foreigners were meant to be out of the country right now.

Like I said, I am looking for a friend.

Maybe you ve seen her.

That is Oluchi and myself 12 months ago.

4 months ago, she decided to

join the Red Cross in Bossangoa.

Taking care of the displaced and other affected by the recent war

in Watz. She made it a point to stay in touch and communicate

every single day.

Text messages, Skype, WhatsApp, even phone calls

whenever she could. And then that's it, the communication

just stopped.

So did you contact the authorities?

All my attempts or the attempts by the authorities to find out

more information about her whereabouts, well,

from the police and

all the other law enforcement agencies have been met back with

lies and sealed lips.

That's why I'm here. To do something about it.

Here you are indeed, but how do you intend on finding her?

Do you realize that you are an illegal alien on the streets of

Bossangoa which makes you a person non grata? Every

foreigner was meant to be out of the country. How did you

get into the country anyway? I m sorry but I must tell you -

This is a suicide mission, Mr Esin.

You can call me Logan.

Okay, Logan. How do you intend on finding your friend? You want

to storm every police station in the hope of finding

her? And then what?

And then, I ll take her home.

Why does that sound like a plan that was doomed from the start?

Look, I have to go and I suggest that you do the same

while you still can because they may return.

So, where are you going to now?

To Lakama District I am hoping to start closer to wherever the

displaced are and hopefully I ll bump into some co-workers.

And soldiers, and police officers and other you name

them. That district is crawling with security agents 24/7.

That s fine by me. Look, I ve got very little time to do

this, especially before the Nigerian embassy decides to

withdraw from your country. If I were you, I would

head there.

Why?

Because they will take you in. As long your country is still a

part of the ECOWAS. That is your only hope of survival.

Look all the other embassies have long since shut down,

they've evacuated their staff, but the Nigerian embassy is

the only embassy on the ground willing and waiting

to evacuate as many lives as possible.

Now, you need to look out for the green white green flag.

If it is still flying then you can assume the embassy is still

in operation, but if the flag is down, I would suggest you

tread with caution as the building may no longer be

theirs, which means, it won't be safe.

Go while you still can.

I will take my chances with you.

Besides, I can be of help to you.

Just.

Seriously, Logan-

Stop!

Stop the car!

Come out of car now!

Shoot them!

So.

You sleep with the enemy? Hmm?

You, Bossangoa women. Miss Gina betray me, Miss Angela betray me

and now, you want to join too eh? What is wrong with you

Bossangoa women? Tell me, what?

Please, Bossman.

I tell you to speak? Bossman tell you to talk?

You talk when Bossman tell you to talk.

You know what this is? Yes? No?

This is Nigerian Army medal.

This is Naija army medal. You betray me. You disappoint me.

I didn t know he was a soldier.

You didn t know he was a soldier, but you know he is

foreigner.

You stupid, you greedy. Tell me why? You sleep with the enemy?

Nobody is sleeping with anybody!

Shut up! Shut up woman!

I show you what I do to traitors, you infidel.

Ghetto end this.

You don t want to do that.

What you say?

I said you do not want to do that. I have something you want.

You think you know what Bossman want, eh?

What you think Bossman want?

What you think Bossman want more than bend you over

right now!? Tell me?

Money, lots of money.

What kind of money you talk?

I m talking about the biggest and most exclusive wine cellar

in the whole republic, with wines over a hundred years old.

Yes Edwin, subtlety is the name of the game.

My combination is my birthday.

You don t know my combination because you don t

know my birthday.

So let me ask you a question young man.

Have you ever heard of Shipwrecked 1907?

What is shipwrecked?

This is Shipwrecked 1907, Heidsieck the most expensive

champagne in my collection.

There can t be, in fact, I know there aren't' more

than 200 bottles worldwide and this is one lying my hand.

Wow! So, eh, how much is it?

three thousand dollars?

Oh, my lovely, naive young man.

Let me let me tell you a little story about Shipwrecked.

It has an intriguing and fascinating history.

It is believed that during World War 2, a ship was making it's

way toward the Russian shore. Was intercepted by a German

tanker and in turn, sunk. End of story, right?

Not quite. In 1997 it's recovered and brought up

and what do they find but 200 bottles of this

champagne and this champagne is one of the most loved

among wine lovers worldwide and due to it's limited number

and interesting background story

each bottle now sells for at least $275,000.

For a drink?

For a drink.

So, what happens when I drink it? I get more beautiful or stay

young for ever?

You see. That is the problem with you women.

You do not understand the important things.

All you want to talk about is beauty, vanity.

Looking young.

- Really? - Yes.

So you are telling me that spending over $200,000 on

a bottle of wine is what is worthy?

Do you what that can do for the suffering people in this world?

Okay. Fair enough. But I ask you?

How many of those people can you help?

How many and for how long? Eh? That is how Utopia.

Now this one here is not so much about the cost

as it is about the deception.

Like a magician with his cards in front of you...

You know the answers right there, but,

it keeps you guessing right, by using the art

of distraction.

Very ingenious.

Ingenious indeed.

That place is swarming with them, imagine that.

Bossman no want your stupid wine. Bossman no want Watz

money. Watz money is shit money.

Who s talking about worthless Watz money?

So, you give Bossman drink, what Bossman do with drink? Drink,

get drunk, Bossman get drink. Then what? Bossman no want

drink. Bossman want Dollars, American Dollars. That is what

Bossman want, not drink. You stupid woman.

Ah, you have never made money like what I m about to show you.

Bossman ever heard of Shipwrecked?

I didn t think so. One bottle of that wine cost

$275,000. So, you want to waste time here while someone else

gets to it? It s up to you.

Where this place?

I like, I like. Very, Very much.

White man live here before? Hmm?

White man enjoy everything and my people,

suffer for shanty town?

Get up!

Where everything? Show me. Now!

Good, very very good.

Very nice. White man live good.

Very, very nice.

White man live good. Live very good in our country.

Hey! You.

What you do?

Nothing.

I say what you do?

I said nothing.

You want drink? Bossman, tell you to drink?

Give me.

Give me, now!

Live. Live.

So, this, this, eh.

This is life, huh?

You like life?

Yes? No?

Bossman, like life, yes.

Bossman, hold life now in my hand.

But you work for your life.

Now do walk everything, put inside truck now.

Ghetto. Get boys, do work. Put everything inside truck.

Boys! Time to work.

Everything. Every single thing inside the truck.

I like.

It s like Live, L.I.V.E spelled backwards.

One sip of this wine is guaranteed to send you back to

your ancestors in 6 hours with no trace of poisoning

found during autopsy because-all the ingredients

are all organic. It s one of the most fool proof ways of

taking out an adversary in a dinner or party scenario.

The beauty of this is once it is drunk it cannot be reversed

by any other means, but by its antidote Also, the

symptoms are subtle and only visible to the trained eye or

such as sneezing, yawning, itching your private parts

which means you'll make excuses to leave the party or dinner

well on time to their demise away from the place of

poisoning.

I like.

Hey you!

What you do today?

You like to watch? Eh? You like to watch.

Go finish work.

Move!

We finish. We go back to camp.

Back to camp? But Bossman you promised.

Promised, Bossman, no promise anything.

You no happy I let you go? Eh?

You see my boys here, you know what they wait?

They wait my order, who take turn first after me.

But not today. Today, Bossman let you go. Bossman

very happy, very very happy, get out!

You still here? You no fear?

Bossman you made me a promise, but

I guess you are not man enough to keep it.

Man enough?

Infidel.

Infidel, Bossman Man enough?

Bossman man enough, even Ghetto my boy here, man

enough. But Kunda district too hot right now. Forget little

man. Too risky.

Too risky? So, Bossman afraid now?

Bossman fear? Bossman no fear anybody. Bossman no fear

anything. Everything fear Bossman. Kunda District too hot.

That s all woman.

Is that all you re going to say? Bossman you made me a promise

that you would send your boys to go and fine Edwin should I

honor my word by bringing you here. But I guess you are not a

man of honor either.

Shut up, shut up woman. Who give you right to talk to Bossman.

You infidel, Ghetto, finish this woman.

If you kill me, Bossman will die.

What you say?

I said you will die. In fact you are already dying. You have less

than 5 hours to live.

Bossman, let me finish off this witch now.

You would do charm on Bossman? Bossman no fear charm.

You infidel. Black magic,

Black magic no work on Bossman!

It is not magic. It is poison.

That drink, that s the poison.

The the urge to sneeze, itching in your private parts, those are

all the symptoms and no medicine can cure it.

Come here, come here.

Lick it, lick it, woman, you die too witch.

Where the antidote?

I don t know.

You don't know. Here.

Where the antidote, or I kill you now.

I said I don t know.

No. Come here.

I kill you. I kill you. Where the antidote.

I don t know but Edwin does.

Listen woman, I kill you without a blink. I ask you for the last

time. Where the an where the antidote?

I don t know! Edwin.

What, what do you want?

Send your boys to find Edwin.

Why? Why you want to die?

You know you die because of this? You know?

Bossman, truly Edwin is the one who has the antidote.

He was more interested in the poison and antidote gist

when my boss was talking about it. I didn't think much of it

then, but please, he will help.

You have less than 5 hours to reverse this condition. I

suggest you send your boys to go and find Edwin and fast.

Ghetto! Take men, go now.

Find little man, let nothing stop you. Bring him here now.

You! Pray, pray little man get antidote.

Captain, this had better be good. Risking the life of a

Nigerian colonel like this.

Sir what I am about to reveal to you will change everything.

What is this captain?

You will find all the the details in those documents,

names and account details of all who have been paid off. As I

told you on the phone sir, this whole thing is a charade and not

an insurgency attack, rather a spin off of an attempt to take

out Major Egan who himself believes Col. Bello wants him

dead because of his wife but it s bigger than that, Sir.

Without realizing it, Major Egan stumbled on some secret medical

practices and plot by some corrupt officers that could

shake the military to its knees.

Members of our military are being used as guinea pigs in

some secret experiments by these corrupt soldiers and

international pharmaceutical companies who want to turn these

soldiers into invincible super human soldiers.

The side effects of these tests could be huge because

these drugs have never been tested before.

Some senior officers have been compromised, Sir,

with large amounts paid into their accounts. They are not

only looking the other way, but are willing to eliminate anyone

who gets in their way.

Captain, this is very serious. Are you sure about this?

You know, if this is true, we will be going head on against

very powerful people.

Captain, you know what it means to challenge a Nigerian

Colonel?

We are up the food chain and we are very dangerous.

especially to junior officers who become a threat.

That is why I am counting on you, Sir.

To use your good office to put a stop to these people.

How many people know about this?

Just you and I.

Alright, let s keep it that way for now, until I can confirm

this thing. Meanwhile, Major Egan, Captain David and that

woman must come in. Can you arrange that?

Certainly.

Good.

Captain, this meeting never happened. Dismissed.

Sir.

Little man, you get antidote?

What?

Little man, I say you get antidote, yes? No?

Ghetto kill everyone.

- No. - No, No.

Yes, yes he does, He has it.

He knows the antidote.

Yes I do, I do. I do.

I do?

Yes you do. Remember? Mr Hammersmith told you the

antidote for LIVE?

What live?

The poisonous wine.

Oh oh the lethal drink.

So you bring me antidote now! Or she die.

Look, it s really not exactly as it looks. He didn't exactly

mention the name of the antidote in our conversation.

All he did was drop hints.

Hints, what hints? You know name of antidote or no? Bossman die,

you suffer slow death. Now, tell me where is antidote?

I m trying, I am trying to figure out what he meant by LIVE

backwards, LIVE backwards.

Backward what? Look Ghetto very tired. I end this now!

No, no, no, I need time. I can figure it out. I swear to you.

I can figure it out. I need time, please.

Please think. Try harder. Edwin please try.

Edwin please. Try, try harder..

Okay, okay, LIVE is the flip side, LIVE is the flip side,

LIVE spelled backwards, LIVE spelt backwards, Edwin...

EVIL, LIVE spelled backwards is EVIL.

Yes.

Go and get it.

You go get it. now!

I go, I go.

Zaya,

Sit down!

Boss?

You go this way, I go that way.

Out!

You get out of this vehicle you die. Sit down.

I say out of car now, or I shoot you.

Boss, Take it easy, I have something that you might like.

You joke with me? Okay what you have?

Let s go to the back

Bumblebee

Boss.

Boss! Firewater!

Firewater. Ha. Firewater!

Take drink, take drink. Ha, let's drink.

Oh, yes. Drink! This is gold!

Come on guys Drink!

Korofo!

Bossman.

Korofo! This mine.

Everything, everything mine, This my territory, this mine.

Say who?

Say Bossman!

Oh, now its my possession.

Hahaha Korofo, you know Bossman no play. Little witch steal from

Bossman. Now, you want to steal from Bossman.

You want it? Come get it.

I give you till the count of three, to give me back my

merchandise. Korofo one!

Bossman!

Korofo two!

Guys!

Open fire!

Where are your people?

They are on their way Sir, they will be here.

Colonel Bissong, where are your witnesses?

They will be here soon sir. They will be here.

This sitting cannot continue to wait indefinitely.

They will be here soon sir.

I am giving you twenty more minutes, after which I will

call off this meeting.

They will be here Sir.

They better be.

Excuse me Sir. Can I be excused briefly.

I need to use the bathroom.

Adams What is the situation now?

Our intel tracked them down now sir. They are on their way

here as we speak. All we need is your order to finish this.

Do it. No one lives, understand? None of them lives.

We ve got a tail.

Lose them.

Can t you go any faster?

I am trying. We are up against some very serious

machines here. This is no game!

Gentlemen, I will have to adjourn this preliminary

hearing. Colonel Bissong.

Sir.

You can request for a reschedule. I suggest you get

your act together.

This meeting is over.

I'm sure they will be here soon sir.

If I were you Colonel, I wouldn't' t bet on dead men as

witnesses. Wasn't Major Egan supposed to be dead and given a

military funeral? And you think you can bring him back from the

dead? I don't think so. Good day Colonel.

Regina.

Oh, thank goodness for a second there I thought I had

lost you.

And have me making headlines tomorrow?

Can we go now?

You're still alive?

Sir, good news, we still have our witnesses even though their

assailants now think that they are dead.

What? That's excellent.

Yes Sir.

This buys us some time to get our act together

before the next hearing. Let everybody believe

that they are dead. Captain, am I clear on this?

Yes, Sir.

Good, Let our enemies think that they are dead, until the

time is right for our boys to return from the dead.

There it is! The green white green flag.

And it is still flying, thank goodness.

Edwin this is it, let s go for it!

Help! We are West Africans!

You made it, you made it.

Don t worry you are safe now. You are safe.

We'll get you inside.
