Meanwhile, Ekene was given hospital bill of N10,000 to be paid before treatment could commenced on his dad, indicating that that's the hospital motto: "PAY BEFORE SERVICE" can you imagine?

However, he was thinking whether to adhere to Poison proposal. Thus, as he was thinking about this so called proposal, the advise of Chinedu flashed his mind; "I will advice you to wait for God's Time". But I have been waiting endlessly for God's Time, but seems abortive, Ekene thought.

He then re-reason the proposal of Poison; "Omo na risk, besides great men are known for the risk they take" he voiced out, 'I will not be alive and see my dad die and the same time lose my admission his year, it also equivalent to the risk, if I eventually lose my admission this year again I will just die so it better i join the troop of gang to make ends meet'.
