in Johannesburg South Africa.
You may need to know how this fund originated. The sum was inherited from my
late husband who was assassinated by Robert Mugabe's aides in view of
acquiring his land and property. I got to know of this fund when our family
lawyer, approached me few months ago with some documents that my late
husband had filed with him in the file, I realized that my late husband
(blessed memory) has written a "will" which he specifically pointed my
attention and I quote.
My darling wife, I wish to draw your attention to the sum of
US$11,500.000.00 (Eleven million five hundred thousand united state dollars)
which I deposited with a security company in South Africa. All documents
concerning the fund are filed with our family lawyer and you can make lay
claim to the fund in case of my absence on earth only by death. I made an
agreement with the Security Company that my foreign partner will stand as a
beneficiary to lay claim of the money. The beneficiary will come forward to
make claim of the consignment.
Dr.(chief) Daniel Mutambara, my late husband advised me through my lawyer
that incase if he dies that I should look for a foreigner who will stand as
the beneficiary of the fund so that the fund will be transfer to his or her
account for partnership investment. From the above you can understand that
