Don't! Look Closer - Episode 19
8 Months Ago
Kike sat beside a graphic designer as he tried to alter Chief George’s she snapped after convincing him to take a picture of him holding a fake statue in his hand to advertise to a doubting client’s. Chief obliged her and that made it easy for her to use the same picture to trick Bayode. He was a nuisance to the world of scam because no one could really catch him in any act and when they did, the team members were never always together, making his release easy.
Idowu recruited her help to catch him . Being a victim too, she had ensured she used everything she could to bring him down. So, as the graphic designer dabbled with the images, she could feel satisfaction already.
“Put the image of that money in the background and change that statue to the original”, she instructed.
The graphics designer manipulated the images and turned towards her. “Like this?”
She smiled. “Good! Now, send it to me”.
The copy with her would be the bait. By this time, Idowu was already working with the team underground. He hated the fact that EFCC focused on only scams that were glaring. Bayode had trained his team to be always well-dressed and presentable.

. Every one of them had their perfect national ID cards.
Kike dialed Idowu’s phone number and talked excitedly. “I just sent the picture to the forum!”
A noise erupted in the background. “I think he has seen it. He is calling a meeting. We have the notorious biggest con artist. Bayode and his crew!
“Remember, patience…” She said as she remembered the words of her father.
“Yes. A wise dog knows when to snatch the biggest bone. I’ll wait”, he replied.
“And remember to cut your hair again today”.
“Yes madam”.
She smiled. Her idea about changing his look had worked for Idowu. Despite not seeing his face before, Bayode and his team couldn’t get a picture of his skinned head in any database.
