THE PLOT OF THE PLAY
Adéjọbí complains about his poor financial status despite being educated and working for the government for over 28 years. His wife, Àdùkẹ́, urges him to take things easy and not rush into trouble. His girlfriend, Sẹ̀gilọlá, tells him to find "ìsújú ọ̀sanyìn" (a charm that will make them invisible while committing robbery). Only twins will be able to see and expose them.
Ifádìran is too principled to give Adéjọbí the charm so he gets it from Bangbade. Sẹ̀gilọlá's spiritualist "polishes" the charm . Adéjọbí finds 3 men (Kàsálí, Àdìgún and Babátúnde), who insist on their all swearing a blood oath to punish betrayers. Adéjọbí and Sẹ̀gilọlá try the charm at a supermarket and it works for them. When Àdùkẹ́ cautions Adéjọbí against keeping late nights, he beats her up. Sẹ̀gilọlá's friends, who are also married women, blame Àdùkẹ́ for being nosy and beg Adéjọbí to forgive her. She then decides to mind her own business.
On the D-day, Adéjọbí wears the charm on his head and goes into the bank's vault naked. The other men stand armed at the bank's entrance while he hands over the money to Sẹ̀gilọlá outside the bank. Suddenly, Èjìrẹ́(a twin) sees Adéjọbí and raises an alarm. The others now see Adéjọbí and get him arrested. The 3 armed men are also arrested after Kàsálí has shot dead the policeman at the entrance. Sẹ̀gilọlá runs home with the whole loot.
While in police custody, Kàsálí mentions Sẹ̀gilọlá's name and address. Sẹ̀gilọlá initially denies her involvement but later bribes the policemen when confronted with indisputable evidence [ (a)the bank notes found in her purse bearing the numbers on the notes stolen from the bank ; (b)Sùnnbọ̀'s testimony about Adéjọbí being Sẹ̀gilọlá's regular visitor and her going out with the 4 detained men on the date of the robbery before returning alone]. The police make Sẹ̀gilọlá the prosecution witness against the 4 men and teach her what to say in court. The men (with Adéjọbí being the only one married) are executed publicly.
Sẹ̀gilọlá does not go scotfree. She sees the four men trying to kill her in her sleep and even when awake. She is forced to confess her involvement in the robbery before her friends and Ifádìran (whose efforts to save her fail). She then faints and dies.
Don't seek money through crooked means.
