23 A silver Toyota Corolla is parked at the entrance of a two-story building. Inside the car are Dapo, Esu and Laz. They are certain this is where they will find Anselm. They all wear black nose masks, baseball hats and sunglasses.  “Esu, please go through the plan once again for me,” Dapo says,...

22 By a roadside instant restaurant, Esu is directing the server how he wants his noodles and egg prepared. Dapo is waiting for his turn by watching Oma’s latest update on YouTube.   He taps Esu and hands him the left arm of his earpiece, “You need to listen to this.”  Esu takes it, “What...

21 Bisola and Anselm are hunched over her phone that evening, watching the latest update on the Anselm murders on Omagist.   Anselm looks at Bisola, “I said it. Didn’t I tell you; someone came there to kill them?”  Bisola holds him close, “My baby, God is fighting for you. I told you he will...
