Woman Who Brought Down The President (STORY) -- Part 2

Woman Who Brought Down The President (STORY) -- Part 2

This is a story about a new President who allowed his close female associate and Minister of Petroleum, Madam Lambo, to steal Billions belonging to the citizens of Nigeria while covering for her. She uses the managing director of the NNPC and two other money launderers to loot the Nigerian treasury with impunity.

The massive stealing of the Nigerian people’s wealth went on for years until a no-nonsense lady in charge of the anti-corruption agency, Bolanle Rasaki, decided to strike and take down the big looters, irrespective of their connection to Mr. President.

Story continues from Part 1…


SCENE OPENS TO MADAM LAMBO'S LAVISH OFFICE - DAY

Madam Lambo sits behind her imposing desk, unaware of Ogundele and Chinasa's secret plans. 

OGUNDELE
(smirking) Madam Lambo, we've been loyal to you, but we can't help but notice how you've been taking us for granted. You grudgingly give us less than one percent of the Billions we launder for you. This is not a fair deal, Madam Minister.

CHINASA
(confidently) He's right. We've also uncovered evidence of your secret affair with Mr President some years back, as well as the documents you used in blackmailing him over a scholarship. We know everything, ma.

Madam Lambo's expression shifts from confidence to concern.

MADAM LAMBO
(angry) You rats! You dare stand in my presence with the intention of betraying me? Do you two know what you’re getting yourselves into?

OGUNDELE
(mocking) We have tried our best for you Madam Lambo. We are Nigerians like yourself and we deserve our own share of the money you stole from this country.

CHINASA
(threateningly) And if you try anything, we'll expose you to the anti-corruption agency. I'm sure they'd love to hear all about your money laundering activities.

Madam Lambo's face pales as she realizes the power dynamics is about to change.

SCENE SHOWS INTERIOR OF ANTI-CORRUPTION AGENCY HEADQUARTERS - INTERLUDE

A montage shows investigators poring over evidence, connecting the dots, and building a case against Madam Lambo and Banabas, her stooge at the NNPC.

AGENT WILLIAMS
(excitedly) I think we finally have enough evidence to bring down Madam Lambo and dismantle her criminal network. This is a huge breakthrough for our agency.

The team shares a collective sense of accomplishment as they prepare for the impending arrest.

SCENE SHOWS INTERIOR OF A LUXURY APARTMENT - DAY

Ogundele and Chinasa, now living together in a lavish apartment, celebrate their newfound freedom and wealth.

CHINASA
(raising her glass) To us, Ogundele! I’m so happy we’ve taken control of our destinies...

OGUNDELE
(toasting) To a future filled with exploits and more money. At last, we’re free from Madam Lambo.

They clink their glasses together, savoring their victory.

SCENE SHOWS INTERIOR OF ANTI-CORRUPTION AGENCY HEADQUARTERS - INTERLUDE

Agent Williams addresses a room filled with investigators, briefing them on the case against Madam Lambo.

AGENT WILLIAMS
(serious) This operation requires precision and secrecy. We cannot afford any leaks. Madam Lambo is a powerful Minister in this administration, and we need to make sure we have an airtight case against her.

The investigators nod, fully aware of the magnitude of the task ahead.

SCENE SHOWS INTERIOR OF MADAM LAMBO'S LAVISH MANSION - DAY

Madam Lambo stands in the midst of her living room, a mere shell of its former grandeur.

MADAM LAMBO
(whispering to herself) They thought they could bring me down, but they don't know the extent of my influence. I will rise again, and they will pay dearly for their treachery.

She clutches a hidden envelope, containing damning evidence against Ogundele and Chinasa, ready to turn the tables.

FADE OUT.


SCENE OPENS TO BANARBAS' LUXURY LIVING ROOM - DAY

The opulent living room is adorned with expensive artwork and furniture. BANABAS, a man in his 50s, in a tailored suit, is sitting on a plush sofa. BOB LIZZY, an attractive young man, walks in wearing a designer outfit.

BANARBAS
(smiling) Welcome Bob, have a seat. I have a plan that will make us richer than ever before.

BOB LIZZY
(sits next to Banabas, intrigued) Tell me everything, Boo. You know I'm always up for an adventure.

BANARBAS
(explains) My love you see, as the new Managing Director of NNPC, I have access to vast resources. I want us to use that power to our advantage. You need to start moving money abroad for me.

BOB LIZZY
(raising an eyebrow) You’re talking of money laundering? That sounds risky. How do we do it?

BANARBAS
(confidently) We'll start by investing in various company shares. Then you buy some houses in the UK posing as an entertainer. You will also travel to Switzerland to lock down some funds in a tax-free haven.

BOB LIZZY
(impressed) Waoh, that's quite a scheme, Boo. Looks like you’ve been planning this for a long time. But what about the risk of getting caught?

BANARBAS
(smiling cunningly) That's where the tax-free haven comes into play. We'll stash a significant portion of the funds in a place where no one can trace them. We'll live a life of luxury without a worry in the world.

BOB LIZZY
(pensive) Banarbas, you know I love you, but this is dangerous. We could lose everything if this corruption or anti-corruption people find out.

BANARBAS
(grabs Bob Lizzy's hand) Trust me, my love. With my wit and resources, we'll be unstoppable. We'll take every precaution to ensure our success and keep our secret hidden from prying eyes.

BOB LIZZY
(after a pause, determined) Alright, Boo. I trust you. Let's embark on this adventure together and make our dreams come true.

They share a passionate kiss, sealing their pact.

SCENE SHOWS NNPC BOARDROOM - DAY

Banarbas sits at the head of a long table, surrounded by executives. He presents his plan to the NNPC board members, their eyes widening with greed.

BANARBAS
(enthusiastically) Gentlemen, the paper in your hands show that I propose a strategic investment plan that will yield substantial returns for the country within the perimeters of the international waters. We must seize this opportunity now.

EXECUTIVE 1
(astonished) Banarbas, this is an ambitious plan and will require huge capital. How do we ensure success?

BANARBAS
(slyly) I have thoroughly researched the market, and I've identified lucrative companies with strong growth potential. We'll invest in them wisely, bringing in significant profits for the NNPC and by extension Nigeria.

EXECUTIVE 2 
(skeptical) But how can we be certain these proposals won't backfire? One has to be careful this period, especially with the eagle eyes of the anti-corruption agency observing all government officials.

BANARBAS
(confidently) I have experts and financial advisors who will guide us every step of the way. We'll diversify our investments, minimizing risks while maximizing returns. Trust me, gentlemen, this plan will revolutionize the NNPC's financial standing. And I will increase your bonuses. Just sign the necessary papers, I need to leave now.

The board members exchange glances, their greed overpowering any doubts.

FADE OUT 🎬
