[SCENE START]
**INT. MAMA IFE'S HUT - NIGHT**
SOUND of crickets chirping
MAMA IFE sits alone, cradling a photograph of her late husband. IFE and KOLA sleep on a mat nearby. The hut is sparsely furnished but clean.
MAMA IFE (to the photograph): It’s been six months, my love. Six months since they took you from me. Six months since the…accident. They say it was an accident. But I know the truth.
A knock at the door. Mama Ife cautiously opens it to reveal MADAM SADE.
MADAM SADE: Mama Ife? Are you alright?
MAMA IFE: Sade… Thank you for coming.
MADAM SADE: Don’t mention it. I heard… whispers. About Chief Okafor. About the Governor.
MAMA IFE: They’re vultures, Sade. Picking at the bones of my husband’s legacy. They want my land. They want everything.
MADAM SADE: But the police… Detective Bode?
MAMA IFE: He’s trying, but they’re powerful men. Very powerful.
**INT. CHIEF OKAFOR'S MANSION - NIGHT**
CHIEF OKAFOR sits at his large desk, Governor ADISA across from him. A half-empty bottle of expensive whiskey sits between them.
GOVERNOR ADISA: The widow is proving troublesome. She’s asking too many questions.
CHIEF OKAFOR: She’s a woman. She’ll eventually give in. We’ll offer her a settlement. A generous one. Enough to keep her quiet.
GOVERNOR ADISA: And if she doesn’t accept?
CHIEF OKAFOR: Then… we’ll find another way to persuade her.
**INT. DETECTIVE BODE'S OFFICE - DAY**
DETECTIVE BODE pores over files, MR. DAPO sits opposite him.
MR. DAPO: I believe the Governor and Chief Okafor are involved in something far more sinister than a simple land grab. I have evidence suggesting they were responsible for the death of Mama Ife’s husband.
DETECTIVE BODE: Evidence? What kind of evidence?
MR. DAPO: Financial records, witness testimonies… It’s all there. But I need your help to bring them to justice.
DETECTIVE BODE: This is dangerous, Mr. Dapo. These men are powerful. But I’ll look into it.
**INT. MAMA IFE'S HUT - NIGHT**
Mama Ife is packing a small bag. Ife and Kola watch her anxiously.
IFE: Mama, where are we going?
MAMA IFE: We’re going to fight for what’s rightfully ours. We’re going to fight for justice.
**EXT. TOWN SQUARE - DAY**
A large crowd has gathered. Mama Ife, supported by Madam Sade, Mr. Dapo, and Detective Bode, stands before Governor Adisa and Chief Okafor. The children watch from the sidelines.
MAMA IFE: (Shouting) I will not be silenced! I will not be intimidated! You will pay for what you have done!
Detective Bode steps forward, presenting evidence to the crowd. The crowd erupts in anger.
