Any jungle fever sedate keeps me languid and resting for a considerable length of time and since I needed to go to work I chose to hold tight until Friday to take the medication after work. "I came back from work late Friday evening, had a feast and took the pharmaceutical I got from Dr. Ukah of the Supreme Court Medical Center. By 7.30 pm I was at that point in bed having exchanged off my hand sets. After a short time, my home cleaning specialist thumped on the way to my room. "I reluctantly dragged myself to the entryway. She let me know that a gathering of individuals needed to see me. I advised her to illuminate whoever needed to see me that night that I don't see guests in the night, that they could come to see me in day time. I about-faced to rest. I couldn't tell to what extent later that I heard thumps on the entryway. "I overlooked the thumps however when my home young lady kept thumping on the entryway, I figured out how to get up and opened the entryway. She let me know that a few people said that the President sent them to me. I escaped the space to find that countless some of whom wore confront veils and hand gloves were wherever in the ground floor. I advised my home cleaning specialist to request that the general population meet me in my study adjacent to the room. "They raced into my study; one of them said his name was John. He flashed a card to me and demonstrated to me what he said was a court order. My vision was obscured as an aftereffect of the intestinal sickness and the medication I took. They had drawn firearms. I was startled and I thought they had a more vile mission than a negligible pursuit. "I made to know whether the Chief Justice of Nigeria knew of their central goal. One of them scornfully spat 'Who is Chief Judge of Nigeria?' I drew out my handset to call the Chief Registrar of the Supreme Court, they would not give me a chance to do as such. Or maybe, they gathered my three telephones and another telephone that I had disposed of. I set down on the seat in the parlor first floor while they flipped around everything on the ground floor. "When they completed ground floor, they requested that I ought to demonstrate to them the rooms on the following floor. Again I needed to rests on the seat in the room, while they flipped around everything. I needed to go to another seat when they needed to upturn the seat I involved. One of them saw the entirety of forty thousand naira (N40,000.00) and one thousand naira notes in one of the drawers. He was energized and called their lead who saw the cash and said 'this is not the sort of cash we came to pick.' They exited the N40,000.00. "In the following room, I lay on the bed outside of anyone's ability to see of the closet from which they brought some crates and brief cases and voyaging packs. Every one of the sacks and satchels and voyaging packs aside from one contained just magazines, papers and some old garments. Some were unfilled. One and only little pack was bolted with a latch and this was the main sack that contained cash. They guided me to come over and expel the lock. I recovered the key from the side pocket of the pack and evacuated the latch and came back to my bed. They set up the sacks together by the latrine entryway. They called me again and asked me whether the sacks were my property and I addressed they were my property. "None of the sacks were opened in my nearness nor within the sight of my housemaid who was the main individual in the house with me at all material times. "Some of them remained in the room while I took them to my study. Right now, I turned out to be exceptionally tipsy and I needed to profit to rests for a seat in the parlor and a man with a weapon and a face veil remained over me while I napped. He took after every time I went to the can. Another took after my housemaid every time I approached her for water. There was no chance to get out of the house. "They were at all entryways. Those seeking and those outside the house went into the house through the fundamental entryway, kitchen entryway and indirect accesses. They went all through each room, incorporating the room in which the packs were kept. I snoozed irregularly yet my home young lady was continued sitting on the means and could watch them getting through the kitchen entryway however she couldn't see the individuals who returned from entryways, made the second strides and went all through the rooms on the upper floor. "After numerous hours, they came down to the parlor first floor and let me know they were going to cut down the sacks. "I was astounded when I saw them bringing out enormous packs of various monetary forms from the sacks that had contained just magazine papers and old garments and some were unfilled. Some were contained in multi-hued plastic sacks which they tore and disposed of. They put the cash in various packs and brief cases and after that continued to number a lot of N5, N10, N20 and N50 notes, which were the change I gave back every time I went to shop throughout the years. They kept awakening me to get some information about the little section of naira notes. Nobody got some information about the tremendous aggregates of cash they put in the sacks. "One of them came to where I was resting and requested me to sit up. One of the firearm men, who stood a couple of feet from me, came and remained by me with his weapon drawn. I was requested to sign a paper which they said contained a rundown of what they were taking without end. Faced with the life-undermining circumstance, I settled on a moment mental choice that it was better for me to consent to their requests and remain alive to recount my story instead of get shot and murdered on the affection that I assaulted them or that I attempted to get away. I marked the paper and composed my name as requested. Nobody let me know what offense I was claimed to have conferred. Nobody let me know of any request of or assertion against me. "The main pack that contained cash was the little sack I bolted with a latch which I opened when requested to do as such. The pack contained the aggregate of $25,000, £10 and a chestnut envelope containing the entirety of N710,000 which was a month to month remittance paid to me for September 2016. In the brief case, which I convey to my office every day, I had the total of N300,000 and some spare change. The above are the main entireties of cash brought from me alongside my telephones, papers and other family things. "I don't know how they came to fruition the immense totals of cash I saw without precedent for my parlor on the early hours of Saturday, eighth October, 2016. The different wholes of cash charged to have been recuperated from me were said to be in the web-based social networking in the early hours of Saturday, eighth October, 2016 when the trespassers were yet to finish their inquiry. "They took me away in their vehicle yet before they headed out, they requested my housemaid to get in and bolt the house and not to ever turn out or let anybody into the house. It was the point at which I saw DSS in the premises into which they drove me that I understood my intruders were specialists of a Federal Government Department. Before getting into the premises, I believed that the intruders were even equipped thieves or ruffians, all the more so when I was not addressed by anybody about anything. "At that point I turned out to be a great deal more bothered for myself as well as for the fate of this incredible Nation, Nigeria. I couldn't persuade myself that any office of the Federal Government, in a majority rule setting, could for any undisclosed reason, abuse the privileges of a Nigerian resident, a Judicial Officer and Justice of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, so far as that is concerned with such exemption.
