My father was required to give the 15 digit code number to his next of kin so that if
he dies or something happens his next of kin will present the code to the bank for
claims.
I cannot successfully claim it myself as the government searchlight is
still on my immediate family hence I crave your assistance. You will in
addition to bank and assist me in investing as a front until the situation becomes more favorable for us to now meet and discuss the way forward.
