TARASHA
EPISODE 39A
from the house where he was killed the next
day. It took seeing Greg’s dead body for James
to remember that they were on a mission to a
particular address before the wanted lady
attacked them.
James led a group back to the location on Gravl
estate that day and they entered into the
compound, finding Robin’s body laying lifeless
on the floor behind the ambulance. They
searched round the compound and even broke
into the house but found nothing else
implicating, except for some bullets and the
blood stained doctor’s coat found in the
ambulance.
The bullets and coat were sent to the forensics
team immediately for scrutinization while
Robin’s body was driven back to the
headquarters.
Still that morning, James and Sandra visited Dr
Hammed who had met in 2030 with Samantha
Osman in Derl Pharmacy to ask for a
confirmation if Aisha Bello was the same as
Samantha Osman.
‘They are not the same person’ Dr Hammed
replied their question in an angry manner. He
was tired of replying questions already, he had
had enough from the EFCC and his lawyer. His
plan was to rest and prepare for his court
hearing the next week.
‘Just take a proper look at it first’ James
insisted.
‘Am I a baby who doesn’t know his left from the
right? I said they are not the same’ the man
replied back stubbornly.
‘Sir’ James tried to calm the situation. ‘I don’t
mean to infuriate you. Well, maybe I should
show you one of her recent pictures, that one is
old and dated back to 2023’
James moved closer to the man with his tablet
and displayed some pictures for the man to
see. ‘These are her recent pictures on
Instagram and Facebook’ he said as he swiped
through different photos.
‘There’s no iota of resemblance between this
girl and Samantha Osman’ Dr Hammed stood on
his point. ‘Samantha looks more like a black
American and has a kind of mixed accent, she’s
certainly not the same as this’
++++++
Aisha’s eyes opened to see Benny pointing a
gun at her, her body which was previously stiff
immediately began to vibrate in fright.
‘Benny, what are you doing?’ she struggled to
mutter under her breath. She looked over his
shoulder and saw Tarasha and Cole standing at
the back, close to the entrance of the lab. Cole
hid his face immediately, after her eyes met
his.
Benny cocked the gun.

**Maitaima, Abuja**
‘Nice to have you here, Mr Henry’ Sylvester
shook hands with Henry as he welcomed him to
their head office in Abuja.
‘Thank you sir’ Henry smiled, receiving the
handshake. ‘I’m happy to be here to work with
you sir’
‘Come in please’ the stout man adjusted his suit
trousers belt as he ushered Henry into an
office.
Mr Sylvester, the official in charge of the
security cameras system of whole nation had
been recently embattled with series of breaks
and attacks on their operations which always
resulted in assassinations.
The first time it happened was in November
2030. The security cameras all stopped
transmitting at the same time and for the same
duration of a minister’s assassination. Others
had happened after that, the latest was just one
week ago and it involved the death of United
States special officer, Robin Kahn and his team.
After fruitless struggles by all the software
engineers and officers to fix the loophole, Mr
Sylvester was forced to invite Henry George, a
young Internet technician, software and
computer engineer and transmission expert to
come to their aid.
Henry George, aged 26, was a renowned ethical
hacker who had saved the nation on a previous
attack by enemies on their security official
websites. Henry saved his country four years
ago when he was serving as a youth corper in
Maiduguri. His breaking of the limit brought him
fame and money as he was well sought for by
several organizations after his service. He
decided to settle in Lagos with his parents,
occupying a good position in a well respected
computer security firm.
‘Please have your seat, sir’ Sylvester motioned
him to the visitor’s seat.
'Thank you sir' Henry replied as he sat comfortably into the seat.
'I believe you've heard all the recent security breaches we've had in our systems' Sylvester began before sitting down.
'Yes, as a matter of fact, I've been trying to work on it already' Henry leaned forward, placing his hands on the table.
'But you know there's a limit to what I can do without having permission from you to use your data'.
'Yes' Sylvester smiled. 'We'll give you everything you need to work with. We need to fix the problem as soon as possible to avoid more blames from the police'
'I'll work with the best of my abilities as long as you provide every necessary data for me' Henry licked his lips as he replied, he felt uneasy. He wasn't being honest. In fact, he wasn't so sure if there's any more data to get from them as he had already hacked into their system to derive information for his personal investigation'
