Government official before he died during this past war in my country
Liberia. But before the war started he took all his money away and
lodged with a Security company in Accra Ghana,the money was put inside two
metallic trunk boxes.The actual content of the boxes was not disclosed
to anyone.It was deposited as family valuables.Unfortunately the war
started and my father was killed, now that my father is dead I, the son
lakayana kamokia inherited the money and other properties.

sign the change of ownership form, as one of my business associates

investigation of money and property I know that my father's name will
appear and they will probe me for the money and other property.
