The news this Wednesday morning reported the abduction of the prominent businessman Alhaji Sadi Kokino (not a kid's drink). According to circulating reports, Alhaji Sadi Kokino was taken in the night of yesterday, Tuesday, at the airport of the capital city. What is most perplexing about this incident is the manner in which the person who abducted him managed to do so. Many people who boarded the same flight as Alhaji Sadi Kokino confirmed to the public that he had arrived safe and sound, even greeting some few individuals who had come to welcome him. Additionally, there were two journalists present at the airport who took both photos and brief videos of him. Everyone witnessed Alhaji Sadi, in apparent good health, entering a car opened for him by one of his aides, and then his trusted driver drove the car in front of everyone. However, when the cars reached the compound of his house, after the door was opened for him to exit, he stated, “You all should take me to where you left me.” In short, Alhaji Sadi Kokino went missing on the route between the airport and his residence. As of now, security officials have spread out in all directions to search for him, eagerly listening and watching for any information from the mouth of this abductor, whose means of carrying out Alhaji Kokino’s kidnapping remains unknown.

While those close to the situation continue to discuss this perplexing story, the common folks also have their say. No matter which social media platform you visit, you would think a discussion is ongoing. While some are lamenting the incident, others are eagerly providing commentary; on another front, some directly refute the incident, claiming that it might be propaganda from a powerful nation, suggesting that he is relaxing at home in good health. From those refuting it to those who believe it, everyone has their reasoning, as per the Commissioner’s account, it is indeed astonishing, particularly when considering the presence of security personnel and CCTV cameras surrounding the airport, with lighting that resembles daylight from every angle. How exactly the incident happened will eventually be revealed.

He lay in the back of the car with closed eyes, almost like he was asleep, occasionally letting out a short sigh and breathing out hot air through his mouth. Despite being a brave man and a diligent worker in his field, from just one glance at him now, you could see the immense fatigue and burden he was carrying. The car came to a stop, and the opening of the door forced him to slightly open his heavy-lidded eyes while slowly raising his hand to glance at the watch on his wrist; he grimaced for a moment, releasing a gentle breath before lowering his hand and redirecting his gaze toward the opened car door.
As if he wouldn’t move, he then slowly exerted himself to adjust his black jacket, which was bunched up at his side, stepping out of the car. Quickly, the person standing in front of him—presumably the one to open the door—hurried to retrieve the jacket, attempting to fold it properly in respect. He shook his head in refusal, not accepting the jacket, squinting slightly due to the pain he was experiencing, he exhaled before completely stepping out, pressing a small firearm into the pocket of his pants.
His tired eyes then met those of two young men, who quickly rushed forward to greet him. With his right hand curled into a fist, he proceeded forward without exchanging any pleasantries. The two of them followed closely behind, not expressing any discomfort over his actions.
In his calmed steadiness, he reached the place where they needed him. Upon observing the ambiance of the room, you could tell it was a secluded area for security personnel to discuss a case or engage in conversations, especially regarding security matters. Without speaking to anyone, he found a place to sit, and the other individuals who had entered with him also settled down. The room became silent; you could barely hear anything except for the humming of the air conditioning that released air and the faintest of movements within. The person standing by the wall, near some artwork, raised their face with an extremely frowning expression, watching them.
