HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! 

Cheerful sounds of laughter echoed inside the Xstacy club which is known to be one of the most exclusive and the most ᙭- rated clubs in Abuja.

Here inside the club, Rich pot bellied men and handsome playboys enjoy themselves as they lavish and squander bundles of cash both in naira, dollars and pounds on strippers that dance n--kedly before them. While some of them were busy focusing on strippers, some were busy playing cards, while some were busy discussing shady business deals and some were discussing top government secrets. 

Here in the VIP lounge, Commissioner Badmus and some politicians discuss and argue amongst themsleves about a current government project that didn't sit well with either of them ; Badmus who was more disturbed showed his resentment towards the project. 

Badmus  "This is madness!!! Can you imagine? This is genocide. I won't be a part of this. 

Alhaji Gambo" Wallahi! When I was presented with the project, I was terrified. What has this world come to? 

Chief Okafor " Look! Let's not forget that this project is being handled by the Nigerian secret service.  

Prince Adejumo" You mean the * Prime X force*? 

Badmus " Shhh! Quiet prince. You don't say that name out loud. Have you forgotten the organization is meant to be a secret? 

Chief Okafor " Mbanu!! (No) Listen here gentlemen, we're not even supposed to be talking about this in a public gathering like this. 

Alhaji Gambo" The chief is right. The world isn't as it used to be, Technology is so advanced and there is surveillance everywhere. A man can shit in house privately anymore. 

Badmus " Alhaji!! I think you're starting to watch so many movies. Soon you'll say our conversation are being recorded. 

Alhaji Gambo" Is it not fossible? Have you forgotten what happened in 2013? 

Prince Adejumo  "What happened in 2013? 

Alhaji Gambo " Snowden exposed the CIA for secretly spying on people through mobile phones and other electronic device. We shouldn't take this as a joke. I still have wife and kids to take care of. 

Chief Okafor  " Stop acting like a responsible family man, we all know that you spend every Thursday evening with lovely women in your secret love nest. 

Badmus " Not to mention his b-stard kids from different women as well. 

Alhaji Gambo " Keep Quiet! At least I'm not the one doing this things. 

Prince Adejumo "Okay, okay, let's get serious here. What do we do about this project? It's madness. 

Alhaji Gambo" I agree. But we should not be talking about this. 

Chief Okafor  "Relax Alhaji, We're in a club with loud music and so many distractions. Nobody will know what we're discussing. 

Badmus" Okafor is right. Nobody will suspect us here. In fact they won't even guess what we're doing so relax. 

Alhaji Gambo " I won't relax and if you all insist on keeping up this conversation, I'm leaving. 

Badmus" You're a coward Gambo. Don't forget that we're men of influence. We can do and undo things. 

Alhaji Gambo " Don't forget which country you're in. It doesn't matter which position you hold, you can be replaced at anytime. I've had enough of this, I'm going home to my wife.  

Chief Okafor" Hausa people!? All talk but no action. 

Alhaji Gambo " At least we have more sense than some people. 

Chief Okafor" ARE YOU TALKING TO ME ? Gambo watch your mouth o. 

Badmus "Enough! Enough! Let's not quarrel here.  

In that moment as the men were talking between themselves, a handsome young man appears out nowhere and stands before them.

After sensing the presence of the young man, the men all turned their attention him and began to stare at the young man awkwardly ; after a brief moment, the stranger introduced himself. 

Diamond "Good evening gentlemen.

Badmus" Who are you? 

Chief Okafor " How do you think you are young man? Can't you see we're having a private conversation. 

Diamond" Sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable, my name is Diamond.  

Prince Adejumo " Diamond? What kind is name is that? 

Alhaji Gambo" (chuckles) Maybe it's Diamond Rush. 

Badmus " Alright Diamond, what are you doing here? This section is reserved VIPs only. 

Diamond" I know that. I'm actually here to meet all four of you. I was sent by the agency. 

Badmus " What agency? 

Prince Adejumo" Maybe it's a fashion agency for expensive suits (laughs) 

The joke Adejumo made everyone to laugh except Diamond, whose face was calm as a gentle sunny sky. After the men were done cracking their ribs, Diamond brought out a card from his breast pocket and gently placed on the table for everyone to see ; as soon as the men saw the fine print on the card they all dropped their mouths in shock. 

Badmus " It-It can't be... You're... 

Alhaji Gambo" Why are you here? 

Diamond " I'm here for something very important 

Chief Okafor " Which is? 

Right before their very eyes, Diamond brought out a black file and placed it on the table, he then brought out an office pen and placed it near the file which he opened afterwards. 

As the men saw the file, They each took turns in checking it out and after they were done, they looked at the gentle young man before them in utter shock. 

Badmus  "What's this ? 

Diamond " I believe you know what it is. All I want is your signatures, every last one of you. 

.. 

Alhaji Gambo " ALLAH YA SAUWAKE! I WILL NOT SIGN THIS. 

Diamond" Calm down sir, there's no need for you to get tense. 

Prince Adejumo " You expect us to sign this? Are you mad? 

Chief Okafor" This is insane, I will not be a part of this. 

Badmus " Neither will I. 

Diamond" I see, so you all won't sign this? 

Alhaji Gambo " WE WON'T. 

Diamond " Okay then.. I'll be taking my leave gentlemen.. Have a nice night. 

Just as he came neatly, Diamond left the men quietly and calmly, taking the file and pen with him. Immediately he was gone, Badmus and his friends were disarrayed and terrified. 

Alhaji Gambo " OH GOD! What are we going to do? I don't like this one bit. 

Prince Adejumo" How the hell did he know we were here? This place was supposed to be out private hangout. 

Chief Okafor  "It doesn't matter now. We need to go public with this. 

Badmus " I agree.. Let's all go home and talk about this in the morning. 

Alhaji Gambo " Good idea. Good night everyone. (Leaves) 

Chief Okafor" I think I'll be going to. See you all in the morning. 

Prince Adejumo ➡ I think I'll stay here for a while, I need someone to warm my bed tonight. 

Badmus" Well You stay, I'll be going as well. Good night. 

Prince Adejumo " Good night.
