FROM :BARRISTER ISNANTO PARKA:
Dear,
I am Barrister M.J Isnanto a true and lawful family attorney to the family
of late Mr. Bola Ige who was the former minister for justice
federal republic of Nigeria and was assasinated on the 23rd December, 2001.
Before his death, deposited consignment containing $35 Million United Sates
Dollars with a security company which is presently under their custody.
I contacted you because I am asked by Mrs. Amina Ige (the second wife of
late Mr. Bola Ige) to find a foreigner whom we will move this consignment
under his/her custody. She is serious of transferring this consignment out
of this country for offshore delivery because of some facts and family
problems
that presently exist over her,the first wife of the deceased (Late. Mr Bola
Ige) and their relatives.
These facts are:
1. She is not from the same tribe with them.
2. Her refusal to learn and speak their tribal language and address
like other women from their tribe.
3. Her refusal to accept their religion
4. Because she has only one child, a male child.
5. Because she was specially loved and favored by her late husband.
She is absolutely tired of all these threats from her late husband?s first
wife, which started after the death of her husband. The recent development
started after a long family Court actions over sharing of the properties
of their late husband's (Mr. Bola Ige). She was totally marginalized in
the sharing due to she was not from their tribe. She is no longer in their
family house.Every legal document the security company may request from
you before they could release this consignment under your custody is
presently
with me.
Be informed that this transfer is 100% risk free. I would not involve myself
in any illegal transfer.I will appreciate to receive your quick reply
towards
this letter (Offer) so that we shall proceed immediately while you include
your telephone number on your letter to me. Let us join hands together and
assist Mrs. Amina Ige.
Best regards.
Isnanto parka (ESQ)
