Subject: COULD YOU BE OF HELP?

Dear Anticipated Partner,

Let me start by introducing myself as Mujahid Dokunbo Asari, The armed
leader of the Niger-Delta people volunteer force in the South-South part
of Nigeria.

This group has been fighting the Government, hijacking oil vessels in
the high sea etc. for some time now because of marginalization of our area
by the government. This group is highly aggrieved because the Niger-Delta
of Nigeria which will represent comprising mainly Bayelsa, Rivers, and Delta
State. Account for about 95% of the income of the Nigeria government and
these States whose inhabitant are of Ijaw ethnic Nationality are one of
the least develop state in Nigeria especially Bayelsa State. According to
a World Bank Report of 1995, the cases of water-borne diseases and poor
transportation infrastructure in Bayelsa are the worst in the Country. The
exploitative policies of the government make living precarious.

With all the revenues generated from these area, the Niger-Delta area
remains pervasively poor and underdeveloped, lacking virtually all forms
of social amenities infrastructure. The area now has a regrettable legacy
of hunger, unemployment, communal conflict and all forms of social insecurity.


Effort by our past leaders to correct these anomalies (past activist like
Adaka Boro, Dennis Fiberesima and Ken Saro-wiwa) has led to establishment
of Niger-Delta development Board, NDDB in 1961, Niger-Delta River Basin
Development Authority, NDBDA 1976, Oil Minerals Producing Area Development
Commission, OMPADEC in1992, and Niger-Delta development commission NDDC
in 2000 all these without positive results, because of ingenuiness and insincerity
in the establishment of all these board and commissions. Some of these past
leaders were killed by government like Ken Saro-wiwa was killed by hanging
by the then military head of state, General Sanni Abacha. That is why the
onus is on us to solve these problems once and for all.

Recently we had meeting with president and some state governors from our
area. All the government want is a cease-fire which they have achieved and
what the group on the other hand have achieved from the government is to
allow us and provide us with the political space and enabling environment
to operate, to campaign and agitate the fundamental issues of self-determination,
resource control and above all you development. The federal government and
the state governors have taken a bold step in the right direction for once
by making available some amount of money for this course.

The money voted for us as a body to develop the youth and forestall youth
restiveness by establishing Ultra-Modern Youth Centre that will cater for
the unending needs of the youths, by the Federal and state government was
donated as follows Federal government - $ 5.5 million, Delta State-$1.5
million, Bayelsa State - $2.5 million and Rivers State - $ 2.0 million.
The whole money amounted to $11.5 million. This money is lodged in a designated
account in Central Bank of Nigeria.

You might be wondering how this concerns you. This is where your assistance
is needed.

1. To help transfer this funds into your nominated account abroad because
our government is not trustworthy.

2. To act as a credible foreign partner in establishing this Youth development
centre in the Niger-Delta area of Nigeria.

3. To genuinely assist to the end until the implementation of these projects.


For your effort you will be given 15% of the total amount and 5% is set
aside for any expenses you might incur during the process of this transfer.


If you feel comfortable with this proposal, kindly act fact by sending
your full names, Tel/Fax Number to me and our Attorney, Barrister Akinade
Moredayo (SAN) (barrakinadefirms@yahoo.co.uk), who will act on our behalf
throughout the process of these transactions.

Please do not reply if you are not competent in handling this project
and comfortable with this proposal.

Thanking you in anticipation of your earliest cooperation.

M. D. Asari

Leader of NDPVF
