The Nigerian

Debare Balogun has been getting away with theft for years, skimming off the top of his so-called diamond business while flying under the radar of the Nigerian authorities.

Or at least that’s what he thought...

Meanwhile, MI6  has been tracking him and has enough evidence to put him behind bars forever in Nigeria's most notorious prison, Kirikiri. But, they want him as a spy for a mission that could use his conning tactics.

Supposedly, the Russians have dug a Cullinan diamond and they need the Nigerian infiltrate to verify its claims.

With his charm and amateurish experience, it shouldn't be hard to find out whose actually pulling the strings or would it?
