1. In the second year of the reigns of high king Jagaban over the kingdom of Wazobia, Yahaya the son of Bello flee from the face of the law.
2. And it came to pass that after his reigns as governor over the province of Kogi, his books of records were opened by the EFCC and he was found wanting.
3. For unto him it was accounted to have defrauded the province of Kogi with four score and two billion shekels. Many other inequities also were recorded unto him against the people.
4. And the chief scribe at the EFCC by the name Olukoyede sent a messenger unto him saying, behold thy reign is over as governor and thou hast been weighed on a scale and found wanting.
5. Now that thy immunity hast been taken away from thee, thy iniquity hast found thee out.
6. Lo, present thyself this day that thou mayest answer some questions partaining to thy stewardship as governor over the province of Kogi.
7. But the son of Bello was greatly terrified by these words. For he knew in his heart that he dealeth treacherously with the people and with the treasury entrusted unto him during his reigns.
8. Then his wisemen counseled him in this manner saying, tarry hither that the chief scribe mayest come unto thee. Then, thou shalt bribe him with the proceed of thy loot in gold, and in silver and in bronze.
9.And if thou observe according to this thing, it shall come to pass that the memory of all thy transgressions shall be blotted out of his heart eternally.
10. Then he replied the messenger saying, tell thy master according to these words saying, if he purposed in his heart that he mayest inquire of my stewardship, let him come unto me, even in mine house and I shall gratify his heart desires.
11. But these words enraged the son of Olukoyede that he spake in grave rage saying, how shall this thing be? And he made a vowed saying, I shall not have peace until the son of bello is broughtto justice.
12. And when the the former governor heard these words, he was greatly terrified and fled unto a secrete place and hid himself.
13. Then the Chief Scribe of EFCC brought this matter before the Magistrate. And the Chief magistrate sent for the son of Bello that he mayest present himself before judgement but he harkened not.
14. And it came to pass that news got to EFCC that the son of Bello hath sneaked into the city of the great king even Abuja in the dark of the night.
15. Then they sent watchmen to encompass his tent roundabout that he findeth no way to escape. And they saith one man to the other, this day we shall grab him by the throat and bring him to justice.
16. But the son of Bello secretly sent a messenger unto Governor Ododo who he planted to reign after him saying: save me this day brother, I beseech thee lest my adversaries bind me hands and feet and cast me into prison.
17. And Governor Ododo was moved with compassion and he entered into the house of king Bello in his chariot of iron and with his aura of immunity. And he secretly hid him therein that he escaped on that day.
18. But this thing marvelled the inhabitants of Kogi and the entire nation of Wazobia. And they spake according to these words saying, is not governor Bello the dreadful white lion?
19. And they yet spake according to these words saying: O ‘White lion’, where is thy boldness? Where is thy courage that thou fleest like a roe before a fowler?
20. And the chief scribe of the EFCC declared unto the people saying, be thou still, for as the Lord liveth and as I live, I shall not break bread nor drink of a cup until the son of Bello is brought before judgement.
