Be careful of those you call your friend

I CAN’T STOP CRYING

The man pleaded that the bandits should give him N100,000 out of the money he was handing over to them as his ransom.

The gang asked him why.

“I promised my friend that I’ll give him one hundred thousand out of my retirement benefits to start a business.”

The bandits looked at each other and asked him who that friend was.

He told them.

They looked at each other again in amazement and broke the news to him.

It was the same friend who gave them information that he, their current victim, was expecting his retirement benefits.

Later, they brought the rogue friend before them and handed the man a gun. They ordered him to pull the trigger.
The man refused to kill his friend. They gave his so called friend the gun to shoot the man, he did not even think twice to pull the trigger but alas, it was without a bullet in the chamber.

They laughed and collected the gun and shot the friend point blank. They then handed over to the man his bag of money.
Go home, they said.
