Journey to nomansland episode 4
We were all taken to the station and separated into different cells…..I heard the police saying they followed a robbery and murder to the house they caught us……….I was put in the cell with some other guys…How do I explain this or notify my people at home of my ordeal…is this how everything will end? What if we were taken to court and sentence to death, who will even know that this is what I passed through…………This life na wah…………….
Very early the following morning on Sunday, they called out the other guys in the same cell with me (those that we came together)…..one hour, two hours to five hours they didn’t come back, it was later someone told me they have been released…..i asked one of the police officer that came to check on us about the other guys in the other cell and he said they have been released too……So, am the only one remaining here? I explained my ordeal to the some guys that have been in the cell before I came, it was all pity and some of them said I should take it as my faith and pray to my God to see me through……This was when I realized I need to be closer to God………………I requested from one of the police if I can get a phone to call my people at home and he declined that there was no credit on any of there phone except if I can buy recharge card on it…..Where will I even get money to buy card, I pleaded but all enters deaf ear………………
Our police cell is nothing to write home about but it was like people I met there are use to that life, they share their experiences with me and most of them regretted being in that situation…….like play like play, I spent another night in the cell. Around 4pm on Monday, a police officer came to call my name and asked me to come outside…in my mind “WHAT NEXT”…I cant even phantom what will happened next to me…I was taken to the DPO’s office where I met a fair, slim young lady discussing with the DPO…….from the tone of their discussion, I realized the lady came for me, but I don’t even know her from Adam… Who is this?what does she want again? Na wah oooooo but all the questions doesn’t matter to me as what I wanted that moment is to get out of the police station as its not even the best place to be.
Babe: Thanks so much darling
DPO: U know I will do anything for u
Babe:Do we need to fill any bail
DPO:bail bond ke? U don’t need that baby….
Babe:Thanks so much dear
DPO:Just tell your brother to be careful of friend he roll with
I was surprised…”brother ke?”…..i hope am safe again
Babe:Don’t worry dear, he was just at the wrong place at the wrong time ni and I guess this wont happen again………..she moved closer to the DPO and k-ssed him.
The DPO called one of the officer to bring my cloth for me and it was a surprise too when they told him I don’t even have any cloth whatsoever….so, I have to leave this place with my short soaked in dried blood……….we stepped outside and I was still wondering what to do, either to run away from the girl or what but if I run, I cant go to Lagos like this and I cant even walk on the street like this as people will see me as a mad person ………We stepped outside the station and here I saw a clean red Toyota muzzle parked outside with a lady by the passenger side……..she opened the back door for me and asked me to enter with “sorry” sorry….sorry at every interval………………..(Where are they taking me to again)
After driving for about 10mins, she parked in front of a pharmacy and the lady in from got down, went in,side and came back after 10mins…then she continue driving but this time around she introduce herself……
Babe: Am Shade and this is Tolu
Me:Am snakie
Shade:We already know your name…….so sorry for what you have been going through since Saturday
Me:You know all have been going through?
Shade:If we don’t then how do we come and bail you
Me:Thanks for coming over
Shade:Uwc
Me:But who told you about my ordeal and how did you know I was there
Shade:Don’t worry about that for now, all your questions will be answered but the most important thing is for you to be okay and strong, then we will talk
Me:But where are you taking me to
Shade:Somewhere safe…you ask too many questions…don’t worry yourself, you will be alright and you are in a safe hand now……
She drove to an estate, guess its big man estate cos it was quiet and clean…The estate is definitely for tush people (Ajebo)…………She opened the door and ushered me into the house…Waoh,the in,side is as beautiful as outside…….Immediately we entered, she ushered me to a room upstairs and requested I wait for her…………………she came back 5mins later and she already dressed down putting on normal house wear….she showed me to the transparent bathroom and instructed me to drop my short in,side a bin…I was shy in the first place to do all this as she didn’t step out of the room for me but I summon up courage and was fully unclad in,side the bathroom and I can see her starring at me from outside……..even the towel I will use was on the bed or which kind of person is this? Atleast she will excuse me for privacy sake as I don’t want fall into another trouble again………….I finish taken my bath and came outside, I made up my mind to assume there was nobody in the room……I clean myself with the towel…”so, what will I put on?” atleast I cant be unclad in the house…..she brought out a boxer and two white BYC top for me to put on saying she will go out later in the evening to get me a better cloth…she asked for my trouser size and all sort which I told her……………..
She led be back downstairs where Tolu was waiting…..she brought out yam and egg to the dinning table, we finish eating and I we all went to the sitting room where Tolu brought out all she got from the pharmacy and some injection…..i decline in using them but she assured me Tolu was a trained Dr and even show me evidence from her ID card and other stuff to convince me…..after so many drama, I accepted for tolu to administer the drugs and injections on me after which I also use the drugs..i felt weak afterwards and dozed off………..
