Subject: Can I Meet Your Aquaintance!
Dear Sir,
Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they
were meant to be there...to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a
lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never
know who these people may be but when you lock eyes with them, you know
that every moment they will affect your life in some profound way.And
sometimes things happen to you at the time that may seem horrible,
painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without overcoming
those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength,
will power or heart. Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by
chance or by means of good luck. illness, injury, love, lost moments of
true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your
soul. Without these small tests, life would be like a smoothly paved,
straight, flat road to nowhere. Safe and comfortable but dull and
utterly pointless-the people you meet affect your life. The successes and
downfalls that you experience can create who you are, and the bad
experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant
and important ones. So if you're seriously looking for a friend to get
to know,You have found me. I am glad to meet you,You wake up to fresh
mountain air,gaze the green senery,see green veges growing in your little
garden and so much more. Kind of boring right? No, imagine I am with
you in those quite surroundings.well,I leave it to your own imagination.
i am the third child of my parents Dr and MRs Williams Atuka, until now
my late father was the Minister of Lands,Mines and Energy in my country
home of Liberia, who was brutally murdered during the war, he was
killed alonside my dler brothers Benjamin and James Atka, as it is now my
other is my only family whom i leave with in the refugee camp here in
ghana.
what informed my sending you a mail was born out of the fact that, i
believe you have come into my life and will make a difference , for that
reason i want to let you in on some confidntial issue which will be of
benefit to us in the near future.before the death of my late father, he
had this ties in Ghana and was able to secure a security company to get
some funds Starched in a security company here in Ghana, he also has
some investments in Gold that was not to the knowledge of my mother until
the family lawyer Barrister Abdul Kofi brought this to our knowledge.
so far we are just common refugees and we are limited to what we can do,
there for according to the will/document left by my late father, ONLY
a foreign trustee (for obvious reason, safety) should be made to have
access to the funds and should advice on what to do but this has to be
seconded my my mother and i, we only got to know this almost at the
close of last year.
Furthermore, the foreign trustee will have total access to the money
and be transfered to his/her native country for safe keeping after all
documentations have been aggreed upon by the lawyer and both paties
invloved,therefore, i have decided to let you know this, i want you to
please handle this with AUTMOST confidentiality and please i want you to look
at this mail and advice on what we can do get the said funds out from
the security company and get it to be meaningfull as soon as possible.
i will appreciate if you look at this and see how you can help us, i
will appreciate if you can do this for us.
am really sorry to bother you but i want to believe that yo can do this
for us please do not look at this with levity.
i hope to meet you on the chats later, have a splendid day.
love always
Jane Atuka
