d'ivoire and the children of late Mr. and Mrs. Norbert Ajayi. Our late
parents was killed by the rebels in our residence town of Bouake the second
Economic Capital of Cote d'ivoire during the recent political Crisis /war of
19th september 2002. Our father was a wealthy Cocoa Merchant and president
of BCC(bourse de cafe and cacao bouake chapter) before he was killed
together with our mother by the rebels.
Our parents death was due to the BCC.CI's financial support to the
government to fight rebels who attacked our country on this fate of 19 sept
2002.as what the govt. called here (éffort de paix). Our parents was
kidnapped and took away but we only met our father in a terrible condition
with the red cross officials to whom he was handed half alive. Talking of
our mother, our dad confirmed that she could not bear her bullets for only
15 minutes and she gave up. Our father, was hospitalized for some days
before his death in a private hospital in yammoussokro , But before his
death,he secretly disclosed to me as his son, his transfer budget of US$8.5
million dollars which he deposited in one of the well known holding company
in Europe on behalf of his foreign business partner for foreign investments
and directed me where this fund was deposited and concerning the conditions
of the deposit he made the beneficiary anonymous.
Our father also disclose to me before he gave the ghost that he wanted to
invest his fortune abroad. This is why we are honourably seeking your
assistance to help us and stand as the beneficiary and foreign partner of
our late father and help us in the claim of this fund and invest the money
for us. We will also like you to make arrangement for us to further our
Education in your country. We agreed to offer you 30% of the total money as
