dividends of democracy for the masses from the president.

of the bill but was later signed and the fund for the Execution was
released to me. The fund amount up to the tune of $30million dollars (thirty
million united state dollar)there was no specific firm that could come
forward for The claiming of the cash I have to withdraw the
aforementioned fund with the aid of my personal assistant and have the
cash deposited in a security and Finance company that operate vault
