the late Gen. Sani Abacha and Gen.Abdulsalami Abubakar
military regime, who was facing trial with Mohammed Abacha

other senior Military officials, my husband through our
family lawyer have just advised me to seek for a foreigner
who will assist securing the sum of US$20.5M which was
deposited in a security company oversea (Europe) By my husband
before he was arrested in October 1999 by the Federal
Government, this was one of the last moneyhe made while in
the office, which some of it has being seized by the new
government.
How ever, some information received through our lawyer
that the Federal Government are making efforts to discover
this fund, and due to the recent harassment we have been
receiving from some government officials, our lawyer

whose account the fund will be moved into from the
security company oversea, in this regard, I started making
enquiries on how to get a reliable person, before you were
recommended to me,I am therefore asking for your kind
understanding and assistance by nominating an account into
which this fund could be transferred, hence, our traveling

Government pending the outcome of my husband's trial, as
this is the last and only hope for me and our family
(children) for if this money is discovered, the future of
our family will be in jeopardy. Please consider this my
plea on humanitarian ground and assist me.
