Arike’s POV
“Dayo has refused to talk to anyone even his lawyer. His silence is beginning to stir an uproar that he is really guilty of the crimes.” He said.
“Close to four count charges..” I repeated.
“It might be more..”
“What is the..sentence for..the ones charged against him?” I asked shakily.
“Maybe a life sentence or serving his jail terms for each count charge against him.” Bamidele replied.
“No..no..Adedayo can’t go to jail. We have to do something, Bamidele.” My voice pleaded.
“Arike, calm down..there is nothing I can do because I am not his lawyer.” Bamidele said.
“Bamidele..can I ask you to take up his case? Even if he is guilty, there must be a reason..please you have to help me.” I pleaded tearfully.
“Arike, I am not sure Adedayo would want me to defend him.”
