Previously on Why?
WEMIMO
Indulge me, Ann, she entered the bedroom with him, climbed into his bed and at the very last minute, she tells him no, am I getting the story right?
ANN
Where are you going with this?
WEMIMO
She has already given him consent by climbing his bed with him, hell she gave consent by obliging his calls
ANN
I don’t give a fuck what kind of consent she gave him at first, the moment she told him no, he should have stopped
WEMIMO
That is if she is telling the truth, she could be lying
EPISODE 136
Sell them
INT. KINGS- MORNING
Wemimo goes through some document in his office when
the door opens and Tolani come in
TOLANI
Good morning, Wemimo
Without
looking up, he responds
WEMIMO
Morning
Tolani
steps into his office fully
TOLANI
I heard you wanted to see me
WEMIMO
Yes
He looks through the pile of files on his table and
brings out a file. He hands it to her
TOLANI
What is this?
He continues looking through the document in his hand
already
WEMIMO
Please sell that for me
Tolani
opens the file and looks through, then opens her mouth in shock the next minute
TOLANI
You want me to sell these for you?
WEMIMO
Yes
TOLANI
These are your shares in The Company
WEMIMO
I know
TOLANI
And you want me to sell them?
WEMIMO
I am pretty sure that is what I said
TOLANI
(Raises her voice) This is your inheritance, Wemimo,
you can’t just sell them
He
looks up from his work
WEMIMO
And why is that?
TOLANI
Because this is your inheritance, your stake in The
Company
WEMIMO
And what will having stakes in The Company do for me?
TOLANI
You get to call some shot, have a say in what happens
here
WEMIMO
I am pretty content with calling the shot here in
KINGS
TOLANI
Why do you even want to sell it?
WEMIMO
We need money to build the factory
TOLANI
There has to be another way
WEMIMO
I have racked my brain and this is the only way I can
get it
TOLANI
You have obviously forgotten investors, what about getting investors?
WEMIMO
I don’t want investors
TOLANI
This your one-man show is not going to work, you are
going to need investors one day
WEMIMO
Well, until then I am going to keep them out as much
as I can
Tolani
breathes in and out heavily
TOLANI
If I sell this, it might get into the wrong hands and
it might be bad for father
WEMIMO
Which is why you are going to sell it to whoever is
willing to pay the highest price between Banjo and Leke
TOLANI
You are crazy, Wemimo. You are going to cause a fight
between them
WEMIMO
I am not causing a fight, Father is. We all know that
the next person to pick up the baton after father is Banjo. I don’t know why
Father is letting Leke entertain the thought that he will be the next CEO of
The Company. Father should have shut him down a long time ago
TOLANI
Yes, Father has made a mistake but you should not be
fueling the fight between them. Those two might kill each other trying to get
your shares when they find out that you are selling
WEMIMO
That fight is going to bring me money… I know where
you are coming from sister but I need that money for KINGS and KINGS is much
more important than the brotherly love that might have once existed between
Banjo and Leke
The
door suddenly opens and Bintu and Ann comes in a haste
ANN
We need to talk to you, Wemimo
TOLANI
Please can you excuse us, we are in a meeting
WEMIMO
We are done
TOLANI
Wemimo, you can’t do this
He
stretches his hands to her
WEMIMO
Give it back to me, if you can’t sell it. I will find
another person to sell it to
Tolani
holds unto the file tightly
TOLANI
There has to be something I can do to change your mind
WEMIMO
I am sorry but there is nothing you can say
Tolani looks unhappy as she leaves the office with the
document in her hand
ANN
What is that all about?
WEMIMO
Nothing important, what is wrong?
BINTU
Wemimo, you need to call Aperry
WEMIMO
What? Is something wrong with him?
Bintu starts to pace up and down with worries. Wemimo
looks surprised at her behaviour
WEMIMO
Okay, what is wrong?
BINTU
(Agitated) Please call him
ANN
Bintu, calm down, he is going to be okay
WEMIMO
I am not calling him until you tell me what is wrong
ANN
Do you remember the lady I told you about?
WEMIMO
What lady?
ANN
The lady that was raped by a minister
WEMIMO
The prostitute?
BINTU
(Snaps) Her name is Ore, Oreoluwa, don’t call her a
prostitute
Wemimo
looks more surprised at Bintu’s behaviour
WEMIMO
Okay but what
does that have to do with Aperry?
ANN
She is Aperry’s sister
Wemimo
opens his mouth in shock
WEMIMO
What?
ANN
Yeah, my reaction too
WEMIMO
Aperry has a sister?
ANN
Well, had a sister, she committed suicide yesterday
WEMIMO
(Looking more shocked) What? Why?
BINTU
Well, you just called her a prostitute, imagine what
other people called her. She was raped and nobody believed her. Not even her
fucking brother
WEMIMO
Oh my God!
BINTU
No lawyer was willing to take her case, it was like
the asshole paid everyone. Nobody listened and when she killed herself, it
finally dawned on Aperry that she was telling the truth all along. Wemimo, you
have to do something, I think he is going to kill the Minister
WEMIMO
He can’t get to a minister
BINTU
Exactly, if he proceeds with this, he is either going
to get killed or arrested?
WEMIMO
Did you know she was Aperry’s sister?
ANN
No
BINTU
I just told her, I introduced her to Oreoluwa as a
friend who could help her
ANN
And I didn’t
Wemimo
picks up his phone and calls
WEMIMO
He is not picking up, I will call Last Bobo
ANN
Last Born won’t pick up, he is too scared of Aperry
WEMIMO
Then I will try Komo
ANN
Komo will just lie through his teeth
WEMIMO
Toronto, it is
He
dials Toronto and he picks
WEMIMO
Hello Toronto, is Aperry here with you?
There
was no response
BINTU
(Whispers) He is here with him
WEMIMO
Toronto, pick me on loud speaker… Aperry, I know you
can hear, please listen to me. I heard what happened to your sister and I am
very sorry for your loss. Believe me when I say I understand what you are going
through. I heard about what you are going to do and I am not going to stop you.
Infact, I am going to help you but we need to meet. Please, Aperry, please meet
me
After
a few seconds of a deafening silence
APERRY
Come to Alington Hotel
WEMIMO
Thank you, I will be here soon
He
drops the call
BINTU
What do you mean you are going to help him kill the
minister?
WEMIMO
How about you let me do my thing
BINTU
Please stop him from doing anything stupid
WEMIMO
I know I am suppose to ask you why you are so
concerned about him all of a sudden but now is not the time
He
picks his bag up and moves to towards the door
BINTU
Wemimo!
He
turns to her
BINTU
Thank you for helping Aperry
WEMIMO
Even without you asking, I won’t let him get into
trouble. Aperry is family and I take care of my family. So, there is no need
for you to thank me
BINTU
Still… thank you
WEMIMO
Ann, please let go
The
trio leaves the office together
WEMIMO
Tell Aunty Bebii to take it to her
TOLANI
Aunty Bebii is busy, you are going to have to go to
her yourself
WEMIMO
Then we wait until Aunty Bebii is less busy
TOLANI
This has to be done today and while you are at it, get
her resignation letter as the CEO
