Suspicion (2024)

[bunniefuu]

[wind blowing]

[gasping]

[snoring]

[fire crackling]

[man] There are many things

that happen in this life.

Good.

Bad.

[wind howling]

Sometimes, it's more

than a man can handle.

At least, that's

what you might think.

[g*nsh*t]

Until it really happens.

[g*n drops]

What have you done?

[man] And yet, you remain firm.

You still stand.

Are you leaving already?

I didn't want to wake you up.

- Alright.

- Voke, what about the money?

Um...

I will get it today.

Voke, I fly on Friday.

And today is Wednesday.

If you knew you

wouldn't get the money

you should have told me.

I wouldn't have spent

the money I came with.

I will get it today.

At this point, you

have no choice.

Nobody k*lled my parents.

It was an accident!

And you're sure?

Voke.

[sighs]

Voke.

Voke, you know I...

Hey, Som, Som.

[knock on door]

[child] Daddy V.

Lolu.

Hey! Big girl! Come on here.

- Good morning.

- Hi, Lolu.

I cooked for you and Daddy V.

- [Voke] Aww...

- Aww. Thank you so much.

But uh, Lolu, as you can

see, I'm not dressed.

Can you pack it and

bring it for me?

Yes.

- Thank you.

- Okay.

Alright. I'll join you

guys in a bit, yeah?

Okay

Alright. Uhm...

I'll get the money first and

we can sit and talk.

Okay.

You know I'll do

anything for you, right?

[chuckles]

You're lucky I love you.

I love you so much.

[chuckles]

Bye.

[man] Voke, stop.

Let me also eat.

Did Chisom ask about the money?

She was upset.

[clicking tongue]

But there's no problem.

I will get it today.

Bro, I know you don't

like these kind of things.

But, I really appreciate it.

When Lolu fainted, I...

Hey.

I promised you that I

would take care of her.

I carried that girl in my

arms when she was born.

That's my child.

Don't worry about it. Hm?

You're my family.

[subtle music]

Get out of here!

- Later, you'll be acting tough.

- [Rogba laughs]

I know you too well.

[upbeat music]

[man] Think about it.

- [Rogba] You're enjoying it.

- [Voke] It's a school bus.

What school bus?

Alright then, we're done.

If the police arrest

you, don't mention me.

Don't dial my number.

I cannot help you.

You're on your own.

[man] Vovo, my friend.

Vovo.

What's up?

Hey.

Chairman, boss Rogbie.

How are you doing?

- Well done.

- Well done.

- Lolu, let's go.

- How is it going?

I've been looking for you

since. Where have you been?

Any good news?

It all happened exactly

the way you mentioned.

It was the girl who stole the

money. She hid it in her butt.

We were all surprised.

I will meet you both ahead.

Don't you realise

a child is here?

Don't be angry.

Fine girl.

Daddy V.

I'm coming.

Didn't I say it that day?

The guy was looking at me

as if my mouth was smelling.

- Don't mind him.

- Anyway, he is still blinded by love.

I billed him 150,000.

My cut is 50,000. Is that okay?

Today?

I'm going to meet him now.

- That's what's up.

- I got you.

Vovo, my friend.

You don't know what you've

just done for me now.

I'm here for you, Vovo.

Did you hear about

what happened to Wasiu?

Which Wasiu is that?

[chuckles]

Why are you frowning?

I want ice cream.

Wasn't it you who made

breakfast for us this morning?

I didn't want to eat it.

I'll buy ice cream for you.

- Will you buy me ice cream?

- Yes.

[tyres screeching]

[suspenseful music]

[Lolu] Let me go!

[Lolu] Help me, Daddy!

- [g*n c*ck]

- [Lolu] Daddy V!

Leave my child alone.

Leave me alone!

Daddy, please!

I said put down my child!

- [Lolu] Daddy please!

- Put down my child!

Are you mad? I said

put my child down!

Who are you?

[Lolu] Help me, Daddy!

Daddy V!

- Daddy V, help me! Leave me alone!

- Bro.

[Lolu] Daddy V!

Daddy!

Bro!

[man grunts]

[man grunts]

No! Daddy!

So, who is mad now?

[dramatic music]

- No, no, no!

- [Rogba] Let me follow him.

Go.

[men grunting]

[suspenseful music]

[Lolu] Daddy, Daddy!

[Rogba] Lolu!

[Rogba] Lolu!

[Lolu] Daddy!

Help me! Help me!

Daddy! No!

Lolu!

[Lolu] Help me! Somebody

help me. No. Help me.

Somebody help me!

[men grunting]

[bone cracks]

[Rogba grunts]

[man grunts]

[Rogba grunts]

[suspenseful music]

[Rogba screams]

[Rogba breathes heavily]

[g*nsh*t]

[Lolu] Daddy!

- Daddy!

- Lolu!

Lolu!

No.

[breathing heavily]

Where is Lolu? Hey?

Don't worry. This

one will tell us.

[body thuds]

[ominous music]

[g*n c*ck]

Where did you take my child?

Where did you take my child?

You don't learn.

[man laughs]

[man laughs hysterically]

[urinating]

[g*n c*ck]

[ominous music]

Where did you take my child?

[man screams]

Okay.

[man groaning]

[man grunting]

[man] Brother, please. Please!

What did you say?

Brother, please.

You said please?!

Where did you take my child?

[man grunting]

What?

[man screaming]

[man] Area, area, area!

I don't know where

they took her to!

[man screaming]

If you're not telling me where my

child is, don't tell me anything.

- Do you hear me?

- [man crying]

[man grunting]

I only urinated on three.

[grunting]

[punching]

Calm down, it's enough.

Calm down.

Chill, chill, chill.

Chill

[man grunting]

Voke, what do we do now?

I need to go see my mother.

She can tell us

where Lolu might be.

Are you sure your

mom would agree?

That's the only thing

we can do right now.

Once I find the location...

I will let you know.

- Voke.

- Hey, hey, hey.

We will find Lolu.

Don't worry about it.

Okay? I'll be back.

[man grunts]

[suspenseful music]

[knocking]

Greetings, Mom.

Voke.

How are you?

They will come and sweep it now.

Sweep what?

[vase shatters]

Didn't I tell you

it's going to break?

- Funke!

- [woman] Ma!

Bring something to

clean this mess.

[woman] Okay, Ma.

See how lean you look.

Look at your body,

blood everywhere.

- What's the problem with this child?

- My friend's child.

My goddaughter, that girl.

She was kidnapped.

Oh my!

Oh my!

Funke!

[woman] Ma!

Please bring starch

for my child.

[woman] Okay, Ma.

Banga or Owu Soup?

No, no, no. Please,

let's forget about food.

Let's forget about food for now.

I don't have time, please.

What do you mean

forget about food?

When was the last time

you ate in this house?

- Mama, please.

- What is wrong with you?

- Just help me check.

- If this is the reason that you came

the answer is no. N. O. No!

Mama.

See your father.

Please.

Just help me, it won't take

you more than two minutes.

- Just go to your room and do it.

- Force me inside and make me do it.

Or should I do it myself?

Voke! I'll get upset

with you right now.

I'm warning you.

So, you want them to take

something from you, right?

If they want to take

something, let them take it.

- She's my child.

- She's not your child!

How can you claim someone

else's child as your own, Voke?

Get married! Have

your own child!

Have your own child!

[suspenseful music]

What is it?

Your father is calling you.

[Voke] Father...

the strongest black magic man.

In this family, we are

all born with black magic.

But black magic is complicated.

To access other powers,

an exchange must be made.

And sometimes, it requires

years from your life.

Just like it did from my father,

who used travelling black magic,

to save Mama.

Father.

[ominous music]

Greetings.

[man grunts]

It's been a long time.

How are you doing?

[inaudible language]

I...

I can't hear.

[indistinct language]

I can't hear what you're saying.

He is asking what happened.

They kidnapped my

friend's child.

Lolu.

- I want Mama to help me find her.

- And I told him

we don't do those things here.

Mama, why would you say that?

Imagine if it was me.

You also have a child.

Imagine if it was me.

Imagine it's your child.

You also have a child.

What's wrong with you?

Why did you bring

this matter here?

Can't you see your father, Voke?

If I can't bring it here,

where do you want me to go?

Why did you bring this

kind of problem here?

- [chair rattling]

- [indistinct chatter]

Ede, are you sure?

[indistinct language]

You're lucky your

father is here.

- Thank you, Sir.

- [Mr. Ede grunts]

[phone ringing]

Are you ready?

Did you bring anything

from the girl?

Yes.

[suspenseful music]

[thunder rumbling]

[mystical noise]

Daddy!

[mystical noise]

Why did you stop?

The girl is somewhere

I can't pinpoint.

Why?

Something is blocking my vision.

Something more

powerful than you?

Is that right, Mama?

[Obatere] Voke...

this girl is in

serious trouble...

if you don't find her now.

[drop beat]

Okay, Ma. I'm leaving.

Voke.

You're my only child.

[Obatere] Be careful.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Rogba!

[Rogba] I've been trying to

reach you all day. No luck.

Listen, I can't bear it anymore.

I'm going to the mountains

to clear my head.

I don't know if I can

keep going without Lolu.

And since you're not answering

I fear the worst.

I swear.

[birds chirping]

[ominous music]

Guy.

I've been calling your phone.

What's going on?

Huh?

Hey.

Didn't I tell you

to wait for me?

Give me, give me, give me this.

Give it to me.

Mother couldn't find

the exact location

but I know she's

still in the area.

- We'll find her.

- [g*nsh*t]

[Voke] Rogba!

- [Voke] Rogba!

- [water splashes]

[g*nsh*t]

[g*nsh*t]

- Brother, please, please.

- Who sent you?

- Please.

- Who is the person that sent you?

One guy showed me the picture of

the person and told me to k*ll him.

Which guy? Which man?

Who... who is it?

Brother, please. They just

gave me money to k*ll him.

Please, brother.

Rogba.

[water splashes]

[water splashes]

[Voke] What are your boys doing?

That's not what I said!

Tell them to move!

[man] Please, calm down.

That's not where I said!

He fell down here. Here.

- [phone rings]

- Tell them to move.

Brother, please,

please calm down.

Please calm down.

We, we, we, we will find him.

- [breathing heavily]

- [phone ringing]

Move! [phone rings]

Over there! Over

there! Over there!

- Move!

- [phone ringing]

You move now, move, move!

Brother...

it hasn't been

long since he fell.

He fell just now.

It was here. He fell here.

Let them search

that area, please.

Well done.

- Over there! Over there! Over there!

- [phone ringing]

Hello?

Gbenga.

I just received

some information.

They found a young girl's body at the

morgue, who was wearing a uniform.

It seems like it's Lolu.

Are they sure she's the one?

You have to come quickly.

You know these

mortuary attendants.

They can dispose of the body

if you don't come and confirm.

[Gbenga] Please hurry.

They still haven't found him?

They're still searching for him.

Just help me put your number.

Once you find him, carry

him to the nearest hospital.

Okay.

I will call you.

Please manage this.

- Okay.

- Well done.

Okay, thank you.

[cars honking]

[Gbenga] They found

a young girl's body

at the morgue who was

wearing a uniform.

[Voke] Are they

sure she's the one?

[ominous music]

[deep breath]

Take it easy.

Her eyes.

What happened to them?

[man] That's how they

brought her here.

[ominous music]

Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah. Im...

I'm fine.

[gasps]

[ominous music]

I had forgotten. I saw Chisom.

She gave me this

message to give you.

- Take it easy, please.

- [phone rings]

[Gbenga] Hello?

[Chisom] Voke

my heart breaks knowing

the pain I'm causing you.

I can't bear to stay.

Please know that my love

for you remains unchanged.

But I must go.

Brother, we have

searched everywhere.

We have searched everywhere.

We didn't find

any traces of him.

But he fell into this lake.

Hey?

Are you sure you

searched very well?

Hey?

Or could the currents take

people somewhere else?

Uhm.

It is possible.

- There's a place over there...

- It's true.

Yes, that side.

I see.

Please, let's keep searching.

He is inside this lake.

I'm very sure of that.

[melancholic music]

[melancholic music]

Mama.

[melancholic music]

When I touched her body...

I felt it.

I felt it in my hand.

It rushed into my body.

I saw it.

I saw the weapon.

Do you still have

your other powers?

Yes.

Voke.

I have never seen anybody that

has more than two powers before.

But you.

You have three.

I'll be fine.

[Voke] This is the knife.

This is the knife...

they used to k*ll Lolu.

Voke.

Leave this matter.

The people behind

this are too strong.

Even me.

I tried to use my power.

But they were

blocking my vision.

- Voke.

- [sobbing]

Please.

Mother...

this is my fight.

[Voke] Don't worry.

But I promise you...

I will be careful.

- Voke.

- [sobbing]

[sobbing]

[Edere] Obatere...

I warned you before.

But you didnt listen.

I know that I've put

him in danger, Edere.

The boy is okay.

For now.

You would know if

he wasn't okay.

[upbeat music]

[phone vibrating]

[man] Vovo, what's

up? Are you around?

Okay, I can hear the music.

Alright, you will see a staircase there.

Just make a turn, and come that way.

You're pretending like you don't

want to come, but you like money.

My friend,

I know there is booty

everywhere, but stay focused.

Have you climbed the staircase?

Okay, just keep moving forward.

You will see a door

when you get upstairs.

Bro, respond to me a bit. It

feels like I'm talking to myself.

There's a door by that staircase,

just keep walking straight ahead.

Don't pay attention to

the women. We are inside.

[call dies]

[woman] Mr?

Voke, but you can call him Vovo.

So...

who's stealing from me?

No one.

Boss, I told you. I told you

no one is stealing from you.

[man] I said it.

But they're making

money from you.

Explain.

The gist is...

when your supply of

alcohol gets here

half the bottles are

swapped with fake ones.

But you pay the official price.

[Voke] You're not

losing any money.

As you still sell the fake bottles,

at the price of the original.

So, technically, no one

is stealing from you.

[woman] Smart.

So, who's doing this?

Boss, I'm not stealing from you.

You know me.

- [man] I've never stolen from you.

- Right.

[club music in distance]

Mr. Voke.

That's still stealing from me.

Hmph.

Tell Peter to pay

them on their way out.

Thank you very much, madam.

My friend, how much

is X.O in this club?

400k.

Ah.

And for the fake one?

Are you joking?

Peter, stop. Stop there.

Stop what?

What's going on?

No money for you.

Dude! Don't touch me.

Don't touch me.

- No money.

- Are you kidding me?

No money for you.

What does that mean?

No money.

Nothing for you.

So you think you

can come to my spot

and mess me up here.

I'm not here for that.

Give me my money, let me leave!

- [g*n c*ck]

- You came to my club to challenge me.

I will k*ll you here,

and nothing will happen.

That g*n isn't going to help.

Nothing will happen here.

[dramatic music]

[crowd wailing]

[body thudding]

[neck cracking]

[grunting]

- [bone breaking]

- [man screaming]

[Gbenga] Nice one, Voke.

[g*nsh*t]

[g*nsh*t]

- [bone cracking]

- [man screaming]

Rest in peace.

Look at you.

Look at your face.

You dare lay your hands on me?

My friend, I'm so proud of you.

Let me shower you

with this money.

Okay, take.

Never bring me to this

sort of place again.

Are you going crazy?

Vovo?

[Lolu] Be careful.

[Rogba] Voke will

go to his house

and it will eventually be just

you and I left in this house.

Pity him a little.

Give him a little hug.

Aww.

He is pretending. Come back.

[laughing]

[melancholic music]

[Gbenga] McAnthony.

How are you doing?

Mad man...

you don't sleep at home?

My friend, Vovo.

Answer me.

I've been thinking about our

job at the club yesterday.

It was like an action movie.

You really messed them up.

Did you not see the kind of

nonsense job you took me to?

Didn't I say not to involve

me in these lousy jobs again?

It's an occupational hazard,

it happens from time to time.

You understand?

I'm thinking that we

should resume work.

You understand? It

will help you...

compatne... compartmenta

What am I trying to say?

It will help you forget

and focus. You understand?

- Healthy distraction.

- If the job is a good job.

- I'm with you.

- Have I ever disappointed you?

What you did

yesterday, what was it?

Vovo!

Leave me alone.

Volcano!

[cars honking]

[TV presenter] Join us as we work

towards a sustainable tomorrow...

Boss P.

Ah!

Gbengus! I'm fine.

- How are you?

- Hello, pretty girl.

How are you?

Boss P, this is the guy.

Good Morning, sir.

[Pius] Good morning.

How are you?

Very well.

The boss is busy at the moment,

but you guys should take a

seat over there until he comes.

[indistinct chatter]

[Chisom] You are so

lucky I love you.

I love you so much.

Who's the lady that

just walked past?

Who? I didn't see.

Is that Chisom?

Oh, Chisom, that's

the head of HR.

Was the man k*lled here?

Absolutely.

Kayode died inside his office.

Let me see the office.

Boss P, please don't be upset.

He has his own

method and process.

Pius, that place has

already been cleaned.

There's nothing to see there.

It doesn't matter.

Brother, calm down, relax.

Pretty girl.

So, Pius, please ensure that you guys

are done before the boss comes back.

Please be careful, please.

No problem.

Don't worry, thank you, hey?

- Gbengus.

- Enter.

Be fast.

How can someone come to a place

like this and commit m*rder?

That's what we want to find out.

[playing xylophone]

[door opens]

The boss is around.

Voke, let's go, please.

Wait, wait.

Wait? Are you joking?

Bro, let's go, please.

[Tony] Pius.

This is the man

I told you about.

He said he wanted to see

where Mr. Kayode was m*rder*d.

Everybody, out of here!

Sorry.

My name is Voke.

Security!

You want to hear me out first.

There's black magic here.

And I'm sure you know

what I'm talking about.

[Voke] As time passed,

I mastered my powers.

I could sense black

magic by touch.

I could see what happened.

But for ordinary eyes...

I would use the obsidian rock

to show them what

they couldnt see.

A sacrifice was made here.

Something was definitely

taken from Mr. Kayode's body.

I'm not sure what was taken,

maybe a finger, a tooth, an eye.

[Voke] I would have

to see the body.

Nobody knew something was

taken from that body...

except me.

- Pius.

- Boss?

Take this man straight

to where the body is.

Voke, right?

Correct.

You speak to only me.

No one else.

[sinister sounds]

[sinister sounds]

Thank you.

What did you see?

I need to talk to your boss.

What are you doing here?

Don't worry, I'm

not here for you.

[door opening]

Sit down.

So?

Have you done anything

I should know?

What do you mean?

f*ck with things you're

not supposed to f*ck with.

I don't believe in nonsense.

I just need you to find out

who is trying to f*ck with me.

Let me f*ck them up,

big time, in return.

Like I said before...

there's black magic here.

An organ was taken.

A sacrifice was made.

Five person target.

One down.

Four to go.

Now, is there anyone

who you think is trying

to mess with you?

No.

I cannot think of anyone...

that is still alive.

Very well.

I want to talk with everyone

that was here that night.

Do what you have to do.

Find the person.

Whoever is responsible for this.

If it's about money...

money is not a problem.

[door opens]

[door closes]

There was a late board meeting.

With who in it?

Chisom.

Who else was there?

Mr. Tony.

Mr. Kayode.

Owen Ugbe.

Diana Ikeji.

Mr. Edere Boloko.

Where did you go from there?

We all went to a restaurant.

With Tony and his wife, Chisom.

Have you heard of Silver Fox?

Chisom is married to Mr. Tony?

Yes.

Alright.

If there's anything else

I'll let you know.

[suspenseful music]

[interviewer] So why were

you dropped off the board?

[Laken] Dropped?

That's not true, man.

I left to focus on my music.

[interviewer] I have information

saying that they voted

and dropped you off the

board of Thompson Group.

Discharge, man.

Yo, I just told you, man.

Are you crazy? Hey?

Are you crazy?

[woman] Hello?

My name is Jimmi Lawson.

And I...

I work with BBC Africa.

I would like to

interview Dasuki.

[woman] Did you say BBC?

I think we did an interview...

[Voke] No, no, no, no.

I said PET.

[woman] Okay.

We're having an

event in three days.

Let's do it then. I will

send you the address.

[upbeat music]

[Lola] I'm Lola. Jimmi from PET?

- Yes.

- Okay, great. Come with me.

Yeah, so he's here.

Jimmi from PET.

Leke.

- PET?

- Yeah, Jimmi Lawson.

- How are you doing?

- Very well, thank you. Nice to meet you.

- Likewise, man.

- I hope this won't take too long.

Well, we can make it fast.

You're an entrepreneur.

With all that you do,

what happened with the

board at Thompson Group?

[clicks tongue]

[Dasuki] I left.

I wanted to focus on my music.

The information I have

says you were voted out.

[clicks tongue]

Leke.

Leke!

They kicked me

out of my company!

- My father's sweat, right?

- [woman] Leke.

We'll see who laughs at the end.

Leke!

They will find out.

Please, nothing about the company

should go into the interview.

Yeah, nothing will go in.

Thank you.

[recorder drops]

Uhm, you don't have to worry.

I can find my way from here.

[upbeat music]

[door closes]

Who are you?

Reporter. With PET.

I came to get an

interview with Dasuki.

Lola!

Do you know this man?

And what are you

still doing here?

My recorder, I forgot it.

Make sure he leaves.

Move.

[door closes]

Bro, your knife is really sharp.

Of course, it is.

[gate closes]

[gate opens]

[Chisom] I can't bear to stay.

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

That's none of your business.

Can you just stop?

Stop what?

Why do you think I'm even here?

Since you left, I

have been angry.

And I'm still trying

to deal with it.

I deserve to know what happened.

Don't you think so?

Okay.

But not here.

I'll follow you.

[cars honking]

[Voke] You haven't changed.

- You're still streetwise.

- [Chisom laughs]

Of course.

Remember, you brought

me here frequently.

[chuckles]

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

I can't use my hand.

[savouring]

You're enjoying it, right?

I've really missed it.

So...

you got married.

He's a nice guy.

Is he a nice guy, or is he rich?

Voke...

love is never enough.

But I was working hard.

And I appreciate it.

I was hustling.

Voke...

that time was a very

crazy period for me.

I had just lost my father,

my mother, my sister...

the only family I had.

I was lost.

And on top of that...

my uncles were fighting

me over my father's money.

[sighs]

I needed help.

So, Tony helped you.

Is that why you married him?

Voke, what would you have done?

What would you have done

for me at that time?

The little money I had

you were taking from me.

You saw me working.

I was hustling.

Just...

Just...

We were...

both from different worlds.

It wouldn't have worked then.

What about now?

Voke...

Things are complicated now.

Very...

complicated.

[melancholic music]

[phone vibrating]

Hello.

[Pius] Someone else

has been k*lled.

I mean, someone else has died.

Who?

[Pius] Edere Boloko is dead.

Where was he k*lled?

[Pius] In his house.

People are wicked.

[woman sobbing]

That's the boy I

was talking about.

Voke.

Come here.

Who is responsible for this?

I think I know who.

But first, I want

to see the body.

He wants to see the body.

Sort it out.

Yes, Sir.

This way.

When you're done,

we all need to talk.

Sorry for your loss, Ma.

Stop.

- Sorry, who are you?

- It's alright.

Let him check.

[sinister sound]

Let's go.

Mr. Tony...

did you k*ll Lanre Thompson?

Watch your tone, boy.

What does that have

to do with this?

[Chisom] Lekan...

just take the money.

[Dasuki] Are you kidding me?

Are you serious?

They kicked me off the board.

Now they want me to sell my

shares from my father's company.

Come on, man.

Make it make sense.

Then I found out Tony

had k*lled my father.

He doesn't know I'm aware.

What happened to

Kayode is small.

What I would do to them...

Unless I'm not Leke Thompson.

They will all see.

[Chisom] What do you mean

by, what happened to Kayode?

Did he do that thing?

Someone who works for him did.

[Voke] Laide Folarin.

Are you sure he did it?

From the bodies I've looked at

a certain weapon with

black magic was used.

When I was there days ago

he placed the same weapon on me.

How is that black magic?

What are you doing?

- Wait!

- Hey!

Let me try.

[stabs]

Ah!

Sir?

That small boy.

Raheem, go catch this boy!

Voke, you will follow them.

You're the only one

that can handle this.

Get that Laide boy here, now.

f*ck! Chisom is

already on her way.

- Get there before she does.

- Okay, Sir.

Go on!

Raheem.

Yes, Sir

[whispers] k*ll

every one of them.

You hear?

Yes, Sir.

Voke.

What's going on?

Dasuki is the k*ller.

My God.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm very sure.

I need to go in and

talk to him first.

You can't go in there.

- I need to talk to him.

- No, you can't.

Let's go!

Stay calm. I'll be right back.

Go on.

Two of you, stay with her.

[suspenseful music]

[dialler ringing]

[police officer] Yes, Sir.

Send everyone.

[police officer] Okay, Sir.

Immediately.

[screams]

[dramatic music]

[g*n c*ck]

Help.

What happened?

Leke... his room.

Stop!

Stand up!

[sigh]

[g*nsh*t]

[knife swooshes]

[body thuds]

[sigh]

[grunts]

[choking]

[grunting]

[struggling breath]

Hey!

Stop there.

You move, and I'll sh**t you.

I said stop there.

[g*n shots]

[stabs and body thudding]

[screaming]

[screaming]

[sirens]

[sirens]

Voke, Voke, Voke.

Take me... take me home.

No, I can't take you home.

I have to take you to hospital.

There are things you

don't know about me.

If you don't want me to die,

- take me home now.

- Okay, fine. Let me take you home.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

[Voke grunting]

Sorry.

Okay, so what do I do now?

The cupboard.

From the drawer...

What am I getting

from the drawer?

A small black bag.

Oh, I see, I've seen it.

Here.

What next?

- Okay.

- [Voke grunting]

The black stone?

[Voke] Yes.

Is that all?

Eggs from the kitchen.

- Eggs from the kitchen.

- Yes

Hurry!

[Chisom] Im coming!

[Chisom] Here.

[suspenseful music]

Here. I have the eggs.

What do I do?

Carefully crack the egg

using the stone.

Add it to the powder in the bag.

- Mix it with the powder.

- [Voke grunts]

And a drop of my blood.

Okay.

And from the egg,

add just the yoke.

Okay.

First, you have to get this off.

Okay

- Chisom.

- Yeah.

Just the yoke.

Just the yoke.

Okay, okay.

Are you ready?

At the count of three.

One.

- Two. Three.

- Now!

[groans]

- Sorry.

- [Chisom breathing fast]

Sorry, sorry.

Voke, Voke, are you okay?

[knife drops]

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Sorry, sorry.

[breathes shakily]

[egg cracks]

Ah!

[breathes shakily]

Sorry.

Oh, no!

Voke.

Voke?

Voke, Voke, Voke.

Voke!

Chisom, Chisom!

Chisom, calm down.

Calm down.

[breathing heavily]

Break it gently.

[panting]

- [swooshing]

- [knife thuds]

[panting]

Voke, Voke, Voke?

[panting]

[crying]

Chisom.

Chisom.

Chisom.

Voke.

[Chisom sobbing]

[coughs]

[screams]

Voke.

[calm music]

Chisom.

Yes?

[Voke grunts]

Sorry, sorry.

You did well.

[chuckles]

Don't say anything.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Are you okay, though?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

That guy went straight for you.

I'm good.

I'm fine.

[calm music]

Take.

Everything made sense.

But I was wrong.

I almost got you k*lled.

You saved me.

You need to find

out who this guy is.

And I trust you will.

[romantic music]

You alright?

[Chisom moans]

[Voke grunts]

[phone vibrating]

[gasps]

[phone continues vibrating]

[Chisom] No, no, no.

I'm... I'm leaving now.

Yeah, I'm coming.

Alright, no problem.

What's up?

What's up?

That was Tony. He's angry.

I need to leave now.

Leave to where?

Home.

He's getting protection.

Protection?

Did you see what the

guy did to the police?

It's not the police.

I'm coming with you.

- No.

- I want to protect you.

Voke.

You're literally the last person

Tony wants to see right now.

Focus on finding

out who that guy is.

I know someone who can help.

Who?

My mother.

I just need to take

the knife with me.

She'll have info on the guy.

Voke.

Voke.

You should have told me

about this black magic.

I know.

You know?

That kind of thing isn't

easy to tell someone.

Chisom, I did not think

you would accept me.

Do I look like someone

who won't accept you?

Am I?

Chisom, I'm sorry.

Let me come with you.

No.

You go to your mom.

Find out who this guy is.

I'll be home.

And I'll be safe for now.

Okay?

Wait.

Um...

My other phone is about

to run out of battery.

Let me give you this number.

Just text me.

Chisom.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[alarm chirping]

[indistinct chatter]

[knocking]

[Tony] Did you bring it?

Well done.

If not, my wife would k*ll me.

[door closes]

I told you the shaman is around.

I've prepared everything,

Everywhere is protected,

nothing is going to happen.

I'm impenetrable.

Please tell the police

to be on standby.

Okay?

Mhm.

[gate rattles]

- Hey, check what's happening over there.

- [g*n c*ck]

[gasps]

- [knife stabbing]

- [man grunts]

What's going on?

Is he here?

Mike.

Mike, where are you?

Call Baba.

[security] Call Baba!

You. Go now.

[indistinct g*nshots]

[bones cracking]

Baby, don't worry. Nothing

is going to happen.

Don't stress yourself.

- Are you sure?

- They will handle it!

What's wrong with you?

He is in the house!

I'm here. I'm in control.

sh**t! sh**t!

[g*n shots]

sh**t!

The Shaman is around.

- Where are you going?

- [footsteps receding]

[phone ringing]

Hello, Chisom.

Voke, he's here.

What?

I think he's in the house.

What about Tony's men?

I don't know, they are

trying to stop him.

[tyres screeching]

I'm on my way.

[tyres screeching]

Voke, where are you?

About an hour away.

Okay, okay.

Boss! Boss!

I think we need

to leave here now.

- Is he inside?

- Yes, sure, sure.

Hey!

[Chisom breathes shakily]

He's here.

He's in the room.

- I'm in the closet.

- Stay on the line.

[horns blaring]

Mother.

I know what you want to ask.

The person I really

care about in this life

is about to be m*rder*d.

I need Papa's black

magic for travelling.

And I need it now.

Voke, it's this same thing that

put your father in his

current predicament.

Papa knew it would cost him.

But he still did what he had to.

He saved you.

Voke, I cannot.

You're my only child.

The only one left.

Mom, has Dad ever told you

that he regrets what he did?

Has he ever told you that

he regrets what he did?

[Chisom] He's in the

room, I'm in the closet.

I have money.

I have money.

Please, please.

I'm begging you, please.

- I'm begging you.

- [stabs]

[gasp]

- [stabs]

- [Tony grunts]

[gasps]

Tony is dead.

[Edere] Let him make his choice.

I don't regret at all that

I gave up my years for you.

I would do it again,

given another chance.

But he is my only child.

- [sobbing]

- My only child, Ede. He's my only child.

- [Voke] What did you say, Mom?

- I cannot.

- Mom, please!

- He's done with Tony, Voke.

Voke, it will take

years from your life.

Let it take them.

Please.

No.

[Edere] It's his

own years to give.

Let him make the choice himself.

Ede, I hear you. I hear you.

But he's my only child

that's still alive.

Okay, okay.

[tyres screeching]

[Obatere] Voke.

[horns blaring]

What's this nonsense?

[Obatere] Clear your head.

The picture of the person

you want to travel to

imagine it in your head.

- Imagine it in your mind.

- [horns blaring]

[Chisom] You're

lucky I love you.

[Voke] You know I'll do

anything for you, right?

[Voke] I love you so much.

[sigh]

[gasping]

[dramatic entrance]

[screaming]

Voke, how did you get here?

That's not important.

Oh, he's awake. He's

awake. Oh, my God.

- [Chisom screaming]

- Stop, stop, stop!

[Chisom] It's not working.

It won't work, it won't work!

Why is it not

working? It's a g*n!

[Voke] It cannot get into

his body. Stop it, just go.

[Chisom] Why? It's a g*n.

He's coming.

- Oh, sh*t.

- [Voke] Hes coming.

[man sighs]

He's coming.

He's coming, he's

coming, he's coming.

Hide, hide somewhere,

hide somewhere.

Just find somewhere

and hide now!

I'll face him.

Wait, Voke. How can I help?

Just hide somewhere.

How can I help? What

can I do to help?

You know what?

If you want the b*ll*ts

to penetrate his skin,

- take them out and urinate on them.

- Urinate on b*ll*ts?

If you want the b*ll*ts to

enter his body, urinate on them.

- Urinate on b*ll*ts?

- Bring out the b*ll*ts! Urinate on them!

Out! Go now!

- Just go.

- [elevator dings]

[punches]

[Voke gasping]

[Voke gasping]

[door slams open]

[knife drops]

[glass shattering]

[glass shattering]

[glass shattering]

[Voke gasping]

[Voke choking]

[man sighs]

[Voke choking]

Rogba.

Rogba.

Stop, stop!

Rogba.

[Voke] Lolu.

Lolu, my goddaughter.

Rogba.

[Voke choking]

[g*nsh*t]

[body thuds]

[g*n drops]

You shouldn't have!

He was trying to k*ll you.

This is Rogba!

Rogba.

Voke.

Are you okay?

You look older.

It's the travelling black magic.

But that's not the point.

He was trying to k*ll you.

You k*lled Rogba

when he was trying

to say something.

Voke, I just saved you.

Don't touch me!

Don't touch me.

Don't touch me.

[sirens wailing]

[solemn music]

Chisom.

Voke.

I'm sorry.

You actually saved my life.

I understand how you felt.

He k*lled Tony,

right in front of me.

We have both lost.

Voke.

You're the only one I have left.

I couldn't bear losing you too.

I couldn't.

Thank you.

I need to go clear my head.

After all of this, I...

I just need to

gather my thoughts.

Voke.

Promise me you'll be back soon.

I will.

I promise.

He was the one that

was wearing the mask.

All this time.

He was alive.

And yet he didn't remember me.

I find myself lost again.

[g*nsh*t]

I have lost my best friend,

the same way I lost him before.

I don't know what

to believe anymore.

[water splashing]

[sinister noises]

[sinister noises]

[sinister noises]

[grunts]

[grunts]

Onajite!

[grunts]

[cracklings]

[door shuts]

[gate opens]

[curses]

- [Edojah] Onajite!

- Are you not afraid?

[Edojah] Onajite!

You will see what I

will do with your eyes.

[Edojah] Onajite!

[Edojah] Onajite!

Come here.

[Edojah] Come here.

[Edojah] Onajite!

Get inside.

Shut up your mouth.

I said go inside.

You're angrily waving a knife.

Do you want to stab him?

Come.

Come here.

I know you.

I know your mother

and your father.

- My father?

- Mhm.

What exactly is going on?

Why did she attack me?

Onajite?

You k*lled the father

of her unborn child.

Rogba.

Was that his name?

Did you two know

each other well?

He was like my brother.

Hmm.

Sir, what is going on?

I know this is what

brought you here.

You want to know what happened?

And you will.

Do you have the courage to

handle what you want to hear?

There's nothing I haven't seen.

Okay.

Come inside.

[Voke] There is something

deeper to this family.

I've always sensed that

there were others like us.

But this is my first encounter.

Elder...

don't be upset, but

I just want to know

what happened to

my friend, Rogba?

We will start from

the beginning.

Onajite.

You brought him to this house.

Tell him how it happened.

Tell him.

They said they found his

body by the waterside.

He was badly injured,

but he was lucky.

He was rescued and

taken to the hospital.

He almost died

from his injuries.

He lost his memory.

People said maybe he was insane.

But I didn't see it that way.

I just liked him.

There was a way he

would smile at me.

He would say, "Aunty Jiji".

"Is there anything

nice in the okra soup?"

I would reply, "You're

crazy. Who's your aunty?"

Then he would laugh.

That's how we became close.

After a while, the

hospital complained.

It's odd no one

came to claim him.

He was discharged

from the hospital.

He had nowhere to go.

So I told him to come stay here.

Are you satisfied?

No man has ever loved

me the way he did.

No man has ever loved me...

Onajite, it's enough.

Go inside... go inside.

[Edojah] Go inside.

Get some rest.

Get some rest.

Well done.

But I searched for him.

I sent divers to search

for him in the river.

We couldn't find his body.

Don't blame yourself.

So, why was he k*lling people?

When he first came here...

I liked him.

My daughter Jite, got pregnant.

I noticed he doesn't

sleep at night.

Every night, he has nightmares.

[Lolu] Daddy.

He starts sweating profusely.

[Lolu] Help me.

I felt no one should

live this way.

[Lolu] Daddy!

Every night?

I decided to

investigate further.

Hmm.

What my eyes saw, my

mouth cannot speak of.

The situation saddened me.

The girl haunting his

dreams is his child.

They sacrificed the child.

They removed five

of her body parts.

And gave them to an evil entity.

Her eyes.

Her heart.

Her tongue.

Her liver and her lungs.

Just because of money.

But a father and daughters

connection is too strong.

Even though they are

feeding on her spirit,

the girl keeps

begging to be saved.

The evil entity takes

five years to feed

on anything sacrificed to it.

When it is finished

it will ask for another.

When this happens

the child's spirit

will suffer forever.

Seriously, she will suffer.

And this is not

their first time.

They've been doing

this for a long time.

So Rogba was trying

to stop them?

Not really.

So, what exactly?

Listen.

If he collects back the organs

from the same people

who took it from the child

and offers it back

to the evil entity

he will save the girls spirit.

To leave his child's

spirit to suffer forever

or k*ll those that

k*lled his daughter.

He was trying to save Lolu.

Now, the child's spirit

will suffer forever.

The suit and mask I gave him

for protection has deteriorated.

I will do it.

There's one person left.

That person ate

the girl's heart.

[Chisom] Voke.

Chisom?

[Edojah] As it is now

it's been too long.

Time is running out.

If it's not done by sunrise

the girl's spirit

will suffer forever.

That's if they haven't

made a new sacrifice.

Thank you.

Well done.

Bye.

[Voke] All this time

Chisom was behind Lolu's death.

[coughs]

[g*nsh*t]

Wait, wait, wait.

Voke, Voke, Voke.

Voke, wait.

Voke, Voke.

Voke, please.

Voke, please.

For what?

For what?

Voke, Voke, Please.

For what?

Rogba.

Lolu.

How many people?

I only sacrificed Lolu.

Why?

Why?!

Listen to me, Voke, please.

I'm listening!

My father did this to me.

Everything we had.

Mr. Tony.

Dasuki's father.

They started this whole thing.

With that monster.

I don't know how long

they've been doing it.

But five years ago...

that monster wanted my mother.

My father couldn't do it.

My father couldn't k*ll my mom.

He tried to run away

with her and my sister

and it k*lled them.

My father's obligation

had fallen on me.

It was my turn to deliver.

If I didn't...

the monster was

going to k*ll me.

Why?

Why did you choose Lolu?

I didn't choose Lolu.

It chose Lolu.

I don't know why it did.

Why didn't you tell me?

I couldn't look you in the face.

So I left.

Are you still there?!

Are you still there?!

Voke.

Now that I know that

you can do these things.

Voke.

Help me.

Let's k*ll her.

What about Lolu?

Voke.

I'm sorry, but she's gone.

You know that I love you.

This is the only way we

can be together, Voke.

[Voke] You know I'll do

anything for you, right?

I love you so much.

We can finally be together.

[Voke] I promised you I

would take care of her.

I carried her when she was born.

She's my daughter.

[Edojah] If nothing

happens by sunrise

the girl's spirit

will suffer forever.

[Chisom gasps]

[groaning]

Voke.

I can't do it.

I can't do it.

I wanted us to be together.

I don't want to die.

Voke.

[Chisom breathes out]

[Voke grunts]

[bones cracking]

[heart beating]

[thunder roaring]

[lightning cracking]

[thunder roaring]

Who are you?

[thunder cracking]

Who do you think I am?

So it is you?

Yes.

I'm the one.

I didn't think you

would k*ll the girl.

That's the difference

between you and your father.

It means you have

saved the little girl.

Lolu.

Mhm.

Why did you help me?

[demonic voice]

It's not for free.

When I need you,

I'll call you.

[rain falling]

[Voke] In my search

for the truth

I lost my best friend.

I lost the love of my life.

Even though I saved Lolu.

There are things you'd think

a man can't handle.

But I'm still here.

Strong.

I still stand.

[man] Someone showed me his

picture. He told me to k*ll him.

[man] We've searched everywhere

but we can't find him.

[music playing]
