The opening scene of the saga story depicts a rich Nigerian family, the Baloguns, enjoying a Sunday afternoon meal in the luxurious Banana Island, Lagos. Despite being a powerful player in Nigerian politics, Chief Balogun is shown to be just like an...
It's a no-brainer that it mattered after death For we value not their presence As it's evident in their absence You stole a soul from souls Just to save a soul who had sinned against souls The end justifies the means and it's a no-brainer Wrong is wrong just as black is black But I see it not from your sight So I seize to speak from my sight

|ADEBISI's RESIDENCE, FESTAC|
"Lolade walks into Adebisi's Home Office "
ADEBISI: I didn't believe it when I was told Lolade Balogun was at my residence.
LOLADE: And I'm surprised to see that you welcomed me. I was told you are a very private individual who is extremely socially picky.
ADEBISI: I am what you have been told I am, but I see no reason to turn you down. Please sit. (Points at the chair opposite her)
LOLADE: (Sits opposite Adebisi with a smile) Thank you.
ADEBISI: So, what brings you to my residence at this time of the day?
LOLADE: Won't you offer me something to drink?
ADEBISI: Forgive my lack of hospitality. (She walks to the wine bar adjacent to her office desk.)
LOLADE: Well, I will be brief and straightforward because I know you are as busy as I am.
ADEBISI: So, what brings you here? (Turns some of the wine into two glasses)
LOLADE: Do you have something against my Father?
ADEBISI: Why would you ask that? As far as I know, you and your father have never found common ground, so I find it disturbing that you make him the centre of interest here.
LOLADE: Why did you help my mother take the company from him? Why are you interested in our family?
ADEBISI: Your mother only asked me for a favour. She wished that I let her buy shares in my name, and I saw no reason to deny her of that as it was also beneficial to me. I'm a businesswoman, Lolade, so don't take it personally.
LOLADE: (picks up the glass of wine in front of her) Suppose I consider that a coincidence, how would you explain your sudden interest in Soji's Oil, my brother, and niece?
ADEBISI: (sips her glass of wine) Did you come here to interrogate me? Because I do not understand.
LOLADE: I'm just curious because the side you are on is very important to me. I'm certain there are a lot of things I can make easier for you if you are on my side, but first, I need to know your motive and the why behind your interest in our family. (sips her glass of wine)
