“From his agitation, I reasoned that he may get another agency to mishandle the matter and deal ruthlessly with the innocent Chief Accountant. Therefore, I played along.”
Now, they listened attentively to him, and at the end of his narration, Mr. Warfield asked, “How much are we talking about, please, Mr. Jobs?”
“I wish I knew. I asked him to pick the money because what he did was a financial crime.”
“Did he pick it?” Mr. Kennedy and Bar. Brim asked anxiously at the same time.
“No, he didn't, but I brought it along with me. I will ask my orderly to bring it if I have my phone.”
At once, Silas went for the phone and Mr. Warfield continued, “That is patriotic of you, Mr. Jobs. You have earned my respect.”
Then, Bar. Fuller, who had been silent, spoke, “Thank you, Mr. Jobs, for redeeming the image of the EFCC in particular and the country at large. I don't have these details, but you displayed maturity in handling the matter.”
