Secret Lifestyle of The Barons (STORY) -- Part 5

This is a story about the underworld operation of the rich and powerful of society, importing and distributing drugs codedly across cities, offices, hotels and nightclubs. As the story unfolds, we see how an ambitious cartel boss used money from drugs to buy his way to become a governor in one of the states in Nigeria and used his immunity as cover for his agents to expand the distribution of drugs to Abuja, Port Harcourt and Lagos.

The governor recruits smooth operators who move drugs into Nigeria for him, using the Abuja airport as their favorite entry point due to poor security. But things took a different turn when a big member of the drug network died suddenly.
