Anini Reloaded - S01 E16

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 16

To make things move as planned, I told the bank manager our mission, and appealed with him to cooperatively handover the 5.2billion Naira that was just brought in, and every other savings in the bank;

BANK MANAGER: Please Sir, we can negotiate and come to an agreement

ME: Agreement you say? Well, we are not here for a negotiation otherwise I would have succumb to your request, we are here strictly base on the cash that was just brought in. So kindly handover the money to us or we will take it, in our own way

BANK MANAGER: Okay, its in our vault

ME: And where is the vault?

BANK MANAGER: The bank’s cabin

PARCY: Your papa yanch, who you dey speak English for? We be like Ajebo thief for your eyes?

(He Loaded the Manager with some slaps)

••The boy like to slap eh••

ME: Well spoken Mr. Manager, can you please lead me to your so called cabin now?

BANK MANAGER: Yes

ME: Good, stand up let’s start going

I pulled him up and asked him to take the lead while I followed from behind, with my gun pointing at him.

He took me to the so called cabin where we carried all the bags containing the money, it was just three big ghana-must-go bag.

I can perceived the joy in Parcys’ and Sharons’ faces, as we unzipped each bag to confirm the contents.

ME: Now I have gotten my primary aim which is the 5.2billion Naira. I’m left with just two aims to accomplish. Do you want to know them?

BANK MANAGER: You can tell me

ME: Don’t be so rude Mr. Manager, its a simple question

PARCY: Anini, abeg make I just give am two loader of slap, so that he go sabi answer question

ME: Go ahead

(Patata went to him and gave him some dirty slaps which were more than the two he promised)

ME: So are you ready to answer the question correctly?

BANK MANAGER: Yes sir, I want to know them

ME: Good Manager. Well the remaining aims are my secondary aim which is to collect more cash from this bank, and my tertiary aim which is to leave this place unhurt.

(I was still talking to him when suddenly, we heard a voice from a very loud public address system)

VOICE: I know you can hear me in there, this is the state CID (criminal investigation department) of the Nigeria Police force. I will advise you all to kindly surrender your weapon’s and all ammunitions with you, because the whole premises has been surrounded with a powerful force of well trained police officers. You will be given 10minutes to comply or end up facing a very tough war from us

I would have been tensed, but because of the confidence in my Co-Lions, I wasn’t shaken with the threat from the State CID;

ME: No lele, na me be Anini. I dey fear death but na once man dey die, abi how una see am?

SHARON: Na so he just be, we can’t be shaken. We must succeed

PARCY: Dem write am for bible according to Matthew Chapter Luke Verse Psalm (Matt. Luke:Psalm) Say “If you never see anything, you no go fit see anything” Today I go make police see real war-start, nor be say dem shoot bird mama fly

ME: Watin i know be say, we come with nothing and we must go with something….

Since it has gotten to this, I decided to change my plan for the mission.

I made the Bank manager to bring out some of the cash in the bank possession, which was roughly over 58million Naira.

They were neatly arranged in two brief cases, and according to him the cash was to be sent as loan to some business client. He explained to me that the bank don’t keep money in their possession. Rather, they send all huge amount to the chest branch, and leave 10% for ATM refill and withdrawals for the next day.

Now we got live cash in our hands, the next move is to leave the bank peacefully without being hurt.

I unveiled my new plan which shocked the Bank manager and all those in the bank;

ME: You all heard the threat that was just imposed on us by the Police men. Their threat has made me have a rethink, and came to a conclusion that you all are no longer witnesses of this incident, but presently our hostages. We were given 10minutes to summit ourselves to them, and I believe we don’t even have up to 5minutes left. So I will give them a message through any one of you, that if they try to give us tough time all of you will die. Do you want to die?

HOSTAGES: No sir

ME: Good, now you stand up

pointing at a young girl who stood up immediately

I’ll allow you to go out there and drop the message. In addition tell them that, we need a bullet proof Hummer Jeep to be parked at the front of the bank for us, in the next 30minutes. Failure to do this will result to one soul down in every 2minutes that passes. Is the message clear?

GIRL: Yes Sir

ME: You can go…. Wait….. Manager write your number in a piece of paper for her to give to them in case they need to talk directly with us

The manager wrote his number on a sheet of paper and hand it over to the girl.

After about 2minutes of the girl’s departure, I received a call from Great-kali;

GREAT-KALI: Mhen, what is happening in there? A girl Just came out in tears and was talking to some top officers of the police force

ME: I allowed her out to drop a message, which makes her to be lucky. How is the surrounding out there?

GREAT-KALI: I won’t lie to you oo, its very tight out here as more forces are still coming. Two shoppers containing some airforce men just dropped some of the men, and presently flying round the bank building, while ten van of NSCDC (Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps) just arrive, acting so prepared for us.

ME: Those are just normal show body, if they nor bring the Hummer jeep come then we go see who be who

GREAT-KALI: Una don collect the money?

ME: We don collect am, and even take extra 58million naira

GREAT-KALI: I believe you Anini. Eh God! my Ferrari and my mansion don come finally. Its like I go start to release my groundnuts out here to distract them oo

ME: Never open fire, they got 30minutes left

GREAT-KALI: Okay bro

ME: I’ll get back to you.

call hanged

AFTER 25MINUTES

We were busy checking our wristwatch and spying outside to see if our Hummer jeep has been brought in, but still there was none of such.

I pulled out a man from the about 120 hostages. Asked him to run out and shot him on his back twice as he approaches the police. He screamed aloud and collapsed on the ground, with his blood flowing like a stream on the spot.

Everyone inside the bank was cold, as they confirmed my words to be real and not a mere threat.

Actually, I used the man as a message to the police that we are serious. Not just serious but very very serious…
