Chapter 20 Court Hearing

• Chapter 20
• Court hearing
• The weather at the court looked different, likely changeable. The wind sent wetness across ears, really working hard to lessen the innumerable murmuring of the crowd. Opula stood by the boot of her cab, watching the arrival of the judge, before the grand jury and then a black Range Rover SUV. Nku was the first to alight from the SUV. He was neatly dressed in Armani Track top and then Sen. Madu and his voluptuous wife amidst security lit up fire in their French suit. The journalists she thought weren’t around, quickly sprang up from no-whereand came at them with their recorders and flashes of camera. The security personnel wedged them back while the three of them hurriedly walked into the hall. She started gathering her files and outfit in the cab. She held her heart, wishing it could stop pumping up pools of anxiety.
