SCENE 1
FADE IN:
INT. PAPA NDUBISI's modest sitting room - AFTERNOON
The room is dimly lit by sunlight filtering through old curtains. PAPA NDUBISI (70s), a frail Igbo man in worn traditional attire, hunches over an ancient laptop. The camera slowly ZOOMS IN on the screen revealing a Google search bar with the words "how to do yahoo" typed in.
Papa Ndubisi squints at the screen, adjusting his glasses.
PAPA NDUBISI
(muttering to himself)
These young people... always talking about this yahoo thing. Maybe I should learn…
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
The sound echoes through the small room. Papa Ndubisi looks up, startled.
PAPA NDUBISI
(sighing heavily)
Yess... who is there?
He shuffles slowly toward the door, his slippers making soft scraping sounds against the concrete floor.
CUT TO:
EXT. PAPA NDUBISI's compound - CONTINUOUS
Papa Ndubisi opens the weathered wooden door to reveal five EFCC OFFICERS in crisp uniforms, their badges gleaming. The letters "EFCC" are etched boldly across their bulletproof vests.
OFFICER EMEKA (Man 1)
Are you Mr. Ndubisi Kalu Princewill Okorie Chinedu Gbamishe?
PAPA NDUBISI
(confused)
Yes, I am... what is it? What have I done?
OFFICER TUNDE (Man 2)
(checking his watch)
Exactly five seconds ago, you searched "how to do yahoo" on Google. After everything yahoo boys don do us, you no wan learn abi?
Papa Ndubisi's eyes widen in bewilderment.
OFFICER KEMI (Man 3)
You are under arrest!
OFFICER BELLO (Man 4)
(pulling out a worn notebook, reading dramatically)
On the 15th of May 1965, a yahoo boy robbed Professor Michelle Timothy. On the 12th of February 2011, two yahoo boys stole from the Commissioner of Police. On the 15th of June 2014, the wife of the Minister of Finance ran away with a yahoo boy…
He pauses for breath, flipping the page.
On the 19th of May 2015, a snake swallowed 15 million naira. On the 29th of March 2016, a monkey carried 65 million naira…
His voice becomes increasingly emotional.
Yesterday, my wife left me for a small yahoo boy! On Tuesday, one of those yahoo boys carried my partner's daughter to Paris!
OFFICER CHIOMA (Man 5)
(stepping forward dramatically)
You are under arrest for ALL these charges!
OFFICER KEMI
(grinning wickedly)
Shey you wan do yahoo abi? We have caught our first scapegoat!
Papa Ndubisi stands frozen in the doorway, his mouth agape. From somewhere off-screen, LAUGHTER echoes through the compound - perhaps from neighbors watching the absurd scene unfold.
PAPA NDUBISI
(weakly)
But... but I was only trying to understand what my grandson was talking about…
The officers exchange glances and burst into laughter themselves.
FADE TO BLACK.
END SCENE
The laughter continues over the black screen as credits begin to roll.
