CHAPTER FORTY THREE


Okenwa got home tired. he parked his car and came down, he looked at the black Highlander that used to be his brother's but later became his. He entered the sitting room and stood for a while looking around. He couldn't still comprehend the fact that he had been released from the asylum. He shook his head and walked to a large portrait of his father hung on the wall. He carressed it with a smile, held it with both hands firmly and carefully brought it down. There was a hole in the wall as small the small hole in cars referred to as the "Pigeon hole". A big brown envelope was in the hole, it was squeezed because the hole was small for it. He brought it out, dusted it and went to sit on the sofa.


"Stupid Ezenwa, the documents have been right under his nose all these while but he never noticed, he must really be a dunce" Okenwa chuckled shaking his head. He brought out the contents of the envelope, the company documents, followed by the landed properties documents and then the hotel documents, he looked into the envelope and saw a small black object, he brought it out and stared at it for a while "Recorder" he spoke out loud. He pressed the button and 40:6 came up on the tiny screen.


"What could have been said in 40 minutes and 6 seconds time" he wondered and pressed the play button, it was his father's voice, he relaxed fully on the sofa placing the recorder close to his right ear.



"Okenwa my son," the old man's voice began "How are you doing? and how is life as a corper treating you? I hope you are feeding well?, don't forget to always call to my attention if you need any help financially, although I know that by the time you would be listening to this recording, you must have ed out from NYSC, but nonetheless, i have very important informations to share with you." Okenwa sighed, he didn't even out before he was taken to the asylum.


"Okenwa am sorry am breaking this news to you like this, but with the way things are going in this house, i might die before you come back so i think i should tell you now. You are not my biological son and i don't know who your biological father is either,i picked you up from the roadside and then planned with my late wife to adopt you and that has been the best decision so far because you turned out to be a blessing to me. You are my son and nothing can change that, i have already willed everything i have to you." Okenwa sniffed, the tears were already gathering.


"Ambler, our family lawyer, is not a good person, i have dropped him though but i still need to tell someone about his evil doings. Ambler is a murderer, yes, a murderer and a rapist, he is the one teaching your brother how to rebel against me. He has never won a case without killing either a witness or the opposing counsel's client. He has killed three people and do you Aisha? his secretary then that was found dead in the bush? yes, he killed her after raping her brutally. How did i find out right?" he chuckled briefly and then continued "I had gone to his house then to hand him my property documents as my lawyer, Ezenwa your brother was there already and Ambler was bragging and recounting his escapades to your brother, telling him how fun it was to be a rapist, especially the part where the ladies would beg for their lives. I was shocked, i ran home and decided to hide the documents in the hole covered by my large portrait in the living room, i will tell you about the hole and the documents on Whatsapp" Okenwa paused the recorder and



Sighed, ing the morning he woke up to his father's Whatsapp message, he was shocked at first because his father never bothered about social media, but when he read the contents "My documents are in a hole on the wall covered by my large portrait in the living room. Do not tell your brother or anyone, not even Ambler, our family lawyer" he had called his father immediately but his number was switched off and then the next minute, he got a call from home saying his father had died in a car accident. He pressed play on the recorder.


"A week after your brother received the lectures from Ambler, he killed Ego after raping her, you Ego okwaya? (Right?) yes, he has killed her" the old man's voice came up again.


"What? he killed Ego? I never knew about that" He said to no one and paused the recorder. "i only know about Ini Archibong and Adesua Jones, which was because we were all in the same department then and they never got along with Ezenwa, nobody did infact" Okenwa spoke out loud "seriously? Ego was his victim too? damn it Ambler, you spoiled my brother and you won't go free from it" he added but when he ed the recorder, he calmed down and pressed play again.


"But i have had enough of their madness, i will report them tomorrow to the authorities, let them face the consequences" the recorder stopped at that minute.


"Oh my God, Ambler, no, you must be punished alongside Ezenwa, the detective must hear this" Okenwa said, scurrying off the living room with the recorder in his hand.

CHAPTER FORTY FOUR


Ambler hurriedly threw few of his clothes in a travel bag, he was on a black tro and a white singlet, he kept on checking his wrist watch at every given opportunity, his phone rung, he picked and placed it on loudspeaker.


"Hello Ambler, when should we expect your arrival?" a woman asked over the phone.


"Moma, before evening, i will be with you guys, i already booked a flight and it leaves in an hour time" he replied going to pick a jean tro from the wardrobe.


"Okay then, we await you" she said and hung up.



Ambler smiled after he was done packing, his hand reached for the black polo on top of the bed, he wore it and zoomed out. He got to his car, unlocked it, threw his bag into the car, on the back seat, he then went to open the gate. He had sacked his gateman the previous year because he was snitching around and few days later, he was found dead and since then, Ambler never wanted to employ another person.


He opened the gate wide and turned back walking towards his car, the sound of screeching tires got his attention, he turned around again and a black Benz had made it's way into his compound, he stood and watched in fear, as the detective, the captain and Okenwa jumped down from the car matching towards him in anger. His legs felt so heavy and his heartbeat increased.


"Ambler, you are going out?" Okenwa asked putting his hands in his pocket.


"Where to? Barrister?" the detective smirked standing beside Okenwa, giving a little space.


"I knew you would be a rapist with the way you were defending that idiot in court" Joel hissed, stood beside the detective leaving the same space between Okenwa and the detective, he folded his hands against his chest making them look like "The Three Wise Men" but the warrior version.


"I hope you all have an evidence to prove your accusations, if not, i will sue you all for defamation of character" Ambler spoke when he finally found his voice.


"You killed Aisha, after brutally having your way with her" Okenwa said calmly, his hands still in his pocket.


"Aisha?" Ambler asked, fear visibly seen in his eyes.


"No, Halima" Joel sneered angrily.


"You have killed three other persons too" the detective told him. "I have an arrest warrant for you" he added, flashing a piece of paper at him.


"So, do you have an evidence?" Ambler asked letting out a breath.


"When we get to the station, you will see the evidence. you are under arrest, Barrister, and you have the right to re...." The detective was saying when Joel cut him short.


"Detective, arrest this man already, he doesn't need the sermon" Joel hissed.


The detective chuckled and cuffed Ambler's hands behind him. They entered the car and drove out, few meters away from the gate, the car stopped and Okenwa came down, locked the gate and re-entered the car while they drove away.











The joy on Joel's face that morning could easily be noticed, he sang along to "Jerusalem by Master KG" blasting from the speaker in his car. Even though it was a South African song sang in a South African language, he still murmured to the beat as he drove to the police station. It was the morning scheduled for the killing of Ezenwa, and Joel had tossed around in bed waiting for sunrise.


By the time he got to the police station, the detective was there already with Okenwa and even Chidiebube, Joel wondered if they slept in their homes at all. He parked his car and got down, walking towards the others.


"Hey Captain, you are here" The detective said with a smile.


"Yes, and where is the psycho? i hope you have not killed him yet because i have another plan for him" he said shaking hands with Chidiebube and Okenwa.


"What other plans do you have for my brother?" Okenwa asked with a sad tone.


"I want to mutilate his sex organ first, before electrocuting him finally" he replied and placed his hand on Okenwa's shoulder and then added "That idiot is not your brother, he is a rapist and should be punished accordingly" he squeezed his shoulder a little.


"He is lucky because the detective insisted on taking him to court, if not, we were trained on killing instantly once you are found guilty and his crimes are major crimes in Nigeria, he would have been shot right at that farm house" Chidiebube added with a shrug.


"To the execution room then" the detective said leading the way while the others followed. They ed through the backyard and walked towards the labour area. The detective turned towards his right and entered a long corridor, it was so dark that they had to make use of their phone torch light for illumination. Walking down the corridor, the detective stopped in front of the last room, brought out a bunch of keys and unlocked the door, they all trooped in and the door was closed.


Joel looked around the room, different apparatus were laying, hung and kept on the only table in the room. Guns, ropes of different sizes, plyers, big nails and Teasers of different kinds filled up the room. Ezenwa sat on the electrocuting chair, his hands cuffed to the hand of the chair, his ankles chained to the leg of the chair, his head Bent forward as though he was sleeping.


"Is he sleeping or what?" Chidiebube asked.


"He shouldn't bother sleeping because he will soon go to sleep forever without waking up" Joel scorned.


The detective took Ezenwa's face up, his eyes were red, maybe he had cried through out the night. "Do you have anything to say before we finally kill you?" the detective asked him still holding his head.


"Amb...ler, led me to this, arrest him too, he has rap..ed and killed ev..en before i started mine" he stuttered.


"We already had him arrested, what else do you want to say?" Joel asked.


"Okenwa, you must be happy right now but am not sorry for everything i have done to you and i will never be, if you thought i was going to apologise to you, then you must be a fool" he chuckled briefly and coughed.


"Okay, that is it, Captain, over to you" the detective said walking away from Ezenwa. Joel brought a packet of razor blade out from his pocket, the people around him chuckled. He took one out from the packet and walked towards Ezenwa, he Bent down and tore his tro with the razor, his boxers followed leaving him naked from the waist below.


"Plyer, please" Joel said to no one in particular but stretched his right hand ready to collect it. The plyer was placed in his hand, he held it with both hands and kept it firmly on Ezenwa's ball, he clipped it and dragged, Ezenwa screamed and groaned in pain. Joel stopped and asked "Is it painful?, now do you know how those ladies felt when you raped them?" he dragged it again much longer than before, Ezenwa continued to scream in pain.


"It's a good thing this room is far from the main building, prisoners would have been wondering by now" Chidiebube said.


"Not at all, the room is sound proof, nobody hears anything from outside" the detective said with a nod of the head.


"Teaser" Joel said again. Okenwa handed it over to him. He placed it on Ezenwa's rooster and turned it on, Ezenwa screamed as the pain burned his shaft. Joel took the razor again and finally cut Ezenwa's shaft deeply with it, blood gushed out.


"You can connect the electrocuting chair to the wall socket now, but leave it at the lowest degree, i want his death to be slow and painful" Joel said, stood up and took back the tools to their original position.


The electrocuting chair got connected to the wall socket, the detective pressed "01"
on the chair, Waves of electric shock started shaking Ezenwa together with the Chair, with his bleeding rooster and the electric shock, they watched him silently as he gave up the ghost. Okenwa ran out of the room, his eyes burned as the tears gathered.


The stalker's body was finally released from the Chair and taken to the police cemetery where he would be thrown into an already dug grave.


"And the Barrister?" Chidiebube asked.


"He will face the same fate as this" the detective replied him with a shrug.
