Kojo is being manipulated in EastEnders spoilers

Trusting Kojo has no idea that his home is being used by Okie and his gang to store drugs. But next week the flat becomes the main station for the operation after the police raid Ravi’s other base. Harry is horrified when Ravi announces they’re moving everything over to Kojo’s flat. He’s desperate to protect his friend, but is forced to follow the boss’s orders.

The next day is Kojo’s birthday and Harry is instructed to keep him out of the flat all day. Oblivious to what’s going on, Kojo heads to The Vic with brother George and the rest of the Knights to celebrate. As the family enjoy a drink, Kojo is thrilled to learn George has plans to take him out.

Unfortunately those plans don’t materialise because George gets sidetracked. Disappointed, Kojo decides to head home but the mechanic gets an unwanted surprise when he discovers Okie and his cronies have taken over the whole flat.

Drugged Kojo gets arrested

The invasion of his personal space causes Kojo to become dysregulated so Okie offers him a pill, promising it’ll calm his anxiety. Kojo takes it and when George arrives at the flat he finds his brother in a dreadful state. It doesn’t take George long to realise Kojo is under the influence of something.

Acting quickly, George manages to get Kojo over to Phil’s. However Jack isn’t far behind. The cop takes one look at Kojo and can see he’s taken drugs. Jack then tells George he needs to follow procedure and place Kojo under arrest.
