EastEnders’ Kojo Asare returns to Walford next week – but not before Harry Mitchell tries to warn his friend away! Harry’s kidnap ordeal is getting increasingly desperate, but will Kojo’s involvement make things better or worse?

Kojo recently left the Square with Okie, under the guise of a car show in Wales, but it was clear that there were more sinister plans in the pipeline for him.

Meanwhile, Ravi and Okie took Harry hostage until he revealed the truth about the hidden camera in the flat. But while Harry disclosed the information, Okie refused to let him go and is currently attempting to cruelly steal Gina from him.

When George grows increasingly concerned about his brother’s whereabouts next week, Okie demands that Harry call Kojo and order him back to Walford.

But once he gets on the phone, Harry takes advantage of the opportunity and tries to save his friend by urging him to flee.

As Okie fumes at Harry, the drug boss demands that his hostage fix what he’s done and tell Kojo to return to the handlers he has been working with. But when defiant Harry refuses, Okie frightens him with a chilling threat…

“Kojo has been away on drug jobs for Okie, so has no idea about the escalating situation with Harry,” our Albert Square source reminds us. “The idea of him returning to the flat and discovering the horror of his best mate’s situation doesn’t bear thinking about.”
