Too late, they have landed bang in the middle of the dreaded 'Oro' procession. The women are struck dead and their bodies spirited away. Unknown to the Oro, the crime is witnessed by another young lady, Shalewa, hiding nearby. She inadvertently attracts the attention of the lead masquerade who quickly discovers where she is hiding, raises his staff to strike her dead but inexplicably turns away. Next morning the SSCU's Kelechi and Danny are on the scene. The Oro is widely feared and witnesses are reluctant to come forward. Kelechi finds Shalewa, but her father Kamoru refuses to allow her to testify, afraid of an Oro backlash. After difficult negotiations with the local chiefs, an agreement is reached for the Oro and its lead masquerade to come in for questioning - and eventually court - in ceremonial masks. Their lawyer argues that the masquerades are spirits and cannot be tried as mere mortals. Kelechi however is convinced she knows the masquerade's true identity. The judge pronounces them innocent, and as they triumphantly proceed out of the courtroom, Kelechi defiantly calls out his name. He is Kamoru, Shalewa's father. See less
