Arinola makes a face like she doesn’t really know, then she says she thinks he’s involved with Ntse.

He says he's surprised she was able to raise it part of the 50 million.
Ntse is not surprised that she could raise some money, she says Arinola is a politician so she will have god-fathers sorting her out.
Tokunboh says there’s a caveat to getting the money though; Arin wants him to leave town.
Ntse is furious, she threatens to go and warn Arinola but Tokunboh tells her to calm down.

Billz says Adze is his best friend.
Benson is not happy to hear that at all. He warns Billz to stay away from Adze.
He points out the fact that Adze’s father didn’t pledge him but Folahan Majekodunmi did so there are some things going on amongst all 3 and he doesn’t want Billz getting caught up in it.

Oye says they haven't touched any money from the account.
He tells her he's seeing something different on his system so she should come down to the bank.
