Na so Tejiri mama dey smile all through. That day if Dem nor spray her money, he reach 500k. At last suffer don end for the family.

Na so everything dey go fine for them. Tejiri dey come area once once just to dey come relax base on old time. The boy nor forget area one day.

Na so Tejiri call him friends say him mama dey lost. Within few minutes, the social media don cast. Every body don dey pray make God protect am. How full woman go commot without telling anybody. Tejiri Face just dey full with tears anytime visitors come check on am on the lastest update. For one full week, no better news. People just conclude say she fit don die or get accident somewhere wey people nor know.

Na so we break ourselves into groups dey go from hospital to hospital, even Mortuary round warri, Effurun, agbarho and even Ughelli but no result. Tejiri dey always provide money for the movement.

He get one afternoon like that when we dey the compound, when we see about two police Hilux drive enter the compound. We even feel say na Tejiri nie decide to involve the police to handle the case.

This one wey we dey talk so, Dem don surround the compound. As Dem enter, them ask who be Tejiri and he stand up. The officer say Dem come search the house base on information wey Dem get. We just feel say na normal police matter wey Dem dey come raid boys collect money as usual.

Everything wey Tejiri do to bribe them with money, Dem nor gree. Dem say Dem won still search the house. Na so Dem select two persons to join them while the rest go stay outside the compound and nobody go leave.

Na so all of us go out with only Aforke, jude and Kevwe join them Dem. He nor reach 30 minutes wey we hear heavy shout from inside the house. Wetin happen na.

Before we Look Tejiri carry One calabash come outside and the next thing we see inside na him mama head and money inside her mouth.

I remember say the sight of that thing alone make Mine wey stand near me faint once. So Tejiri don use him mama for ritual.

My heart cold once. Whick kind wickedness be this? Na so police carry am commot to go show Dem them her body.

As news enter town, nor be small shi shi shi. That S.U president kill him mama. We nor go fit forget. Mainwhile police decide to parade am as suspect to confess wetin really happen and why him do am. That day he nor get the tv station wey nor go. Police station full jam.

Na the DPO nie first talk. he say Dem act on a tip off by one of Dem Tejiri neighbors wey dey stay the other compound. she say she see Tejiri mama enter the compound for afternoon but nor know when she commot. But she notice say for like 1 hour after Tejiri mama enter the compound, He start to Dey play loud music and na wetin the boy never do one since he pack come.

How him mama go pour am water for nite as he dey sleep unless he go join Aforke hustle. He say na with shame and humiliation he take enter street. He beg him mama to give am time to do legit work but him mama greed for money force am to choose this way of wife.

He say when the native doctor ask am who him like use for ritual to sustain him money, he nor think twice to choose the woman wey force am Into this evil way.
