Wanted Here – Ch.47 | KT OLLA

IT was another hearing of the pyschomicide case; and Pedro was there to fight back.

It was an early Monday morning. And the early-30 felt more confident that he’d take Cannon down this time.

He’d just got some strong evidence to fight with.

Now Peter Pedro was the first to say hello to the defense counsel, as they walked into the court.

“A beautiful morning to you, Professor.” He met the older man with a wide smile.

No, that gesture didn’t meet the professor kindly. For he stopped in his tracks, looked back and had no words.

He stood there, musing a hundred thoughts.

What is this boy scheming now? Has he got new evidence or what?

Or is he tricking me to believe that he’s on to something?

Well, if that is so he won’t be smiling this way—he’s definitely got some counter-evidence.

That instant D.M.B. Barbar read him through, and he didn’t say hello.

But Peter was determined to flaunt his prospects. So he walked up to the man.

“It’s really a good morning this morning—isn’t it?”

He’d stretched out his hand for a handshake. So Barbar thought to surprise him.

He took his offer and shook hands, then gently patted his back.

“Oh morning, Peter! Well, it’s only good morning when it’s the first moment after morning! Nobody count eggs as chickens these days!”

Peter Pedro was hit and he felt it. It was like an omen of bad news. It was like Barbar jinxed the morning. Like he predicted a heartbreak.

But the younger man knew his former teacher. And he wouldn’t be a prey to his stunts in psychological intimidation.

So he raised his gaze, squared his shoulders and hit back a word.

“I’m afraid, Professor; but it’s a real good morning today!”

And then, he walked away from him, whistling a tune.

Now the hearing began, and the defense hurriedly pushed for the closure of the case.

It was Barbar who pushed the matter, drawing the judge’s attention to the drought of proofs for psychomicide.

He was fast to submit that Carl and June Martinez, the plaintiffs, had no case and had simply been wasting the court’s time.

He did this because he felt pressure, wondering if the couple had got more proofs on them.

If they’d got any, he was ready to deal with it there and then.

Then if they hadn’t got anything, and their lawyer was simply bluffing earlier, he wanted to block their chances of getting back at Cannon.

He wanted to end the case.

But the old man’s fear came up real as Mr. Pedro countered his move, and produced new evidence.

It was something that the defense had never thought existed.

Yes, Marcuz López had willingly supplied the Martinez team with the recording of the murder of Lucius Barnabas, their last witness on the case.

He’d handed them his MP3 stick with the record file. It was after he converted Carl and June Martinez.

So here, the plaintiffs’ lawyer presented the sound device as their new evidence.

Sons of the Flaming Throne 3 – Ch. 30 (FINALE) | KT OLLA

AT Gibeon King Solomon offered a huge sacrifice of a thousand cattle. That great sacrifice stirred up the heart of God, as the soul which offered it pleased Him much. So there in the smoking clouds, God appeared to Solomon—and it was a breathtaking moment to hear Him speak. For He asked a man to make a wish: He asked Solomon to state his need. ‘I have seen your heart and your offering, and I am pleased with you this day. ‘Therefore Son of David, ask of Me anything you please, and I shall give you whatever you say.’ Right there where the mortal man bowed, he knew this was a mighty offer. But his needs weren’t so many to place in a giant offer. He wanted to ask one thing that is mightier than power and riches. He wanted to own one thing that is chief among so many. So He answered, ‘O God of Israel, You have loved David and blessed him in his days. ‘And this grace, You have extended to me his son: You have set me on his throne. ‘Still here I am in the midst of the many people you have mad...

Here’s what God asks us to tell His people in Nigeria | KT OLLA

  Dear Readers, here is what God asks us to tell Nigeria, today the 1st of April, 2022 —  THE PROPHECY  — 1. The Lord said the sins and atrocities of Nigeria He can no longer ignore. He said He will now punish all lawlessness, unless we repent and change our ways. 2. He said it is for this sake that He has withdrawn the showers of rain, and made them really sparse. 3. God said unless Nigerians repent and turn from all lawlessness, there is coming a draught so severe that it will spark up very strange fires. 4. Yet so that God’s people will not suffer or be shaken, He asks us to tell you our readers and everyone who cares to listen, that you store and keep storing up water without a stop. He sternly instructed us all to do this. 5. God also commanded us to assure His people of His promise for this time. He said He will preserve the righteous during these trying times that will go on to try even the world. 6. He said several times over that the righteous will inherit t...

🛡️Safety Call! – KT OLLA

Running into a rock? The times are testing everywhere in the world. Outdoor is the heat of violence and crime; indoors are the worst cases of lack or need. Everything seemed like the end is here, when most people are just starting to live. But whether it is the beginning of the end, or nothing like it at all… well, all of us just wants to survive. We mean, really survive. Like running into a rock till the heat of God’s sun passes. For this too shall pass, we know. But then, a question sometimes bothers us – particularly at this time. And it is this one thing that we often ask: “Isn’t there something we can do to escape these harsh realities? Isn’t there something we can do at the very least?” The whole world had stayed home at a time, till we were all tired of hiding. But home stopped proving to be a good shelter those times. In fact, plagues opened locked doors and stole away our dear ones. We had thereafter fled outside, running from those things that plagued our earth. We hid in roc...
