God Bless You
I am AISHA MARY MUHID,a Christain widow from Libya.
I am married to Late Mallam ABDULFATAH MUHID of blessed memory who was an oil explorer in Libya for Thirteen years before he died in the year 2001.We were married for twelve years without a child.
He died after a protracted brief illness that lasted for only four days Before his death we were both devoted Muslims.And I found out Christ is the only way I become a bornagain Christain. Since his death I too have been battling with both esophageal Cancer and fibroid problems which has defiled all forms of medical treatment. When my late Husband was alive he deposited the sum of $5.5million (Five Million, Five Hundred thousand U.S Dollars) with a Bank in Africa .
Recently,my doctor told me that I have only few months to live due to the cancer problem because it has defiled all forms of medical treatment Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a Christain organization or devoted Born again individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want this Christain organization or individual to use this money in all sincerity to fund Churches, orphanages, widows,charity organizations and also propagating the word of Our Lord JEsus Christ and to ensure that the society upholds the views and belief of the Holy Bible. The Holy Bible emphasizes so much on Christ'S benevolence and this has encouraged me to take this bold step.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money,and my husband relatives are all Muslims and I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an Unholy manner. These are my reasons for taking this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with Jesus Chris the most beneficient and the most merciful. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health, and because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development.
I know with God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply and your willingness to claim the money, and you agree to utilize the money as I have instructed herein,I will use your name and swear an affidavit of WILL in the high court of Libya authorising that you have been willed to claim the money,and I will send to you copies of the sworn affidavit,and also the Deposit Certificate. I will instruct our family lawyer in Nigeria who is with all the documents for the claim including the SECRET PIN CODE NUMBER and the deposit certificate of the consignment to send them to you for the claim. I will also issue a letter of authority to the bank authorizing them that the said fund have been WIILED to you and a copy of such authorization will be forwarded to you.
I want you and the Christain community where you reside to always pray for me because my health is getting terribly bad. My happiness is that I lived a true devoted Christain life worthy of emulation and now that God is about taking my life,I want him to be merciful to me.I have decided to give out this money as I want this to be one of the last Good deeds I do on earth. Please always be prayerful all through your life.
God Bless You.
AISHA Mary MUHID
