mercial bank of ghana, and they show me all legal documents, because my late father chief M.K.O abiola made me the next of kin to this fund. but it can not be released to me because it was deposited for unward transfer. i was also asked to produce a beneficiary whom this said fund can be transferred to in the next 96 hours, because they are auditing thier annual report. sir, all i want you to do is to stand for me as a beneficiary, and tell the bank to transfered this fund to you right in your country. sir i am ready to map out 20% of this fund to you, and 10% for expenses, so that when this fund is transferred i can come over and with your wise advise i can invest in your country.
