For one corner of Lagos, e get one man wey everybody dey respect. Dem dey call am Baba Jide. Baba Jide na very quiet man, e no dey too talk or waka anyhow. Every morning, you go see am dey greet everybody for street, dey go him small kiosk wey e dey sell provisions. E get wife and two pikin, and them dey live peacefully. But my people, wetin dem no know be say Baba Jide get another life wey nobody sabi.
One day, as Mama Titi dey come back from market, she see police van full for front of Baba Jide house. E shock everybody because Baba Jide no be person wey dey cause wahala. As dem begin gather, police carry Baba Jide come out in handcuffs. People begin shout, dey ask wetin happen. One police officer talk say dem don dey monitor Baba Jide for long time. E be like say Baba Jide na oga for one big gang wey dey do money ritual. E shock you? E shock everybody!
Police talk say Baba Jide dey use him kiosk cover up for the bad things wey him dey do. Dem talk say na there him dey plan all him evil work, dey use innocent face deceive everybody. Mama Titi talk say she no fit believe am, say Baba Jide dey always help her carry load enter house. But wetin person go do? The heart of man na deep ocean.
No be only for Lagos wey this kain thing dey happen. For Aba, e get one woman wey dem dey call Aunty Gloria. She be fine woman, always dey dress well, dey smile with everybody. She get one small salon where she dey make hair. Everybody for the area like her because she dey do hair well and her price no dey too high. But nobody know say Aunty Gloria dey run another business for night.
One night, as John, one young man wey dey work for security company, dey waka go him house, he notice say light still dey shine for Aunty Gloria salon. He decide say he go check wetin dey happen. As he reach there, he hear some kind noise wey no pure. E peep inside, wetin he see shock am. Aunty Gloria dey run prostitution business for inside the salon. Girls full everywhere, men dey pay money dey enter one room. John run go call police, na so dem bust the place. Aunty Gloria dey form innocent for day, but na real hustler for night.
The one wey happen near me for here no even funny at all. oga Benson, na elder for one church. E dey always preach say make people dey live holy life. But e get one small boy, Daniel, wey dey live with Mr. Benson. People dey always see say Daniel no dey too waka outside. Na him Mama Ijeoma notice say the boy dey look sick sick. She call Daniel one day ask am wetin dey happen. After much persuasion, the boy talk say oga Ben dey abuse am. My people, shey e go better for wicked people like this!
Mama Ijeoma carry the matter go church, but dem talk say make she no talk am outside. She no gree, she report to police. Na so dem arrest oga Benson o. The church people begin cry, say dem no believe say their elder fit do that kind thing. But evidence full ground.
