Plot synopsis
Journalist Moses Mobele return to work at Bengali Bugle for the first time in long while with hot news: the disgraced former president Lubanga has saved the life of president Luaga's son and is then arrested. After growing pressure on president Luaga, a court sets Lubanga free. A short time later the newspaper reveal that president Luaga has kept Lubanga locked up in a secret prison in the jungle for many years, without any formal charges or sentence. After mounting political pressure, Luaga announces that he will step down as Bengali's president.
Somewhere in the jungle Lubanga's The Voice of God has a camp where the rules are very strict and armed guards stop disciples from escaping. Disciples who attempt to escape are tied up and fed to crocodiles. The Phantom is keeping watch on the camp and discover that it for no apparent reason includes a chemical laboratory. The camp guards capture The Phantom and bring him before their commander, a brainwashed Sarah Cartwright, who tells him that the purpose of the camp is to make soldiers out of the most dedicated disciples and the laboratory manufacture chemical weapons for the upcoming crusade to cleanse the world from infidels. She also decides to have him gassed to death. With the help of the disciple Boto and a gas mask, the Phantom survive. The guards dump what they believe is his dead body in lake to be eaten by crocodiles.
Later Lubanga arrive to the camp, declaring that he intends to start a campaign of terror all over Bengali and in the ensuing chaos he will step forward and announce himself to be candidate for the presidency.
