My husband left me with our only little baby girl, The present Government of Kenya has sized all my husbands property and frozen all his account both national and International after his death, in the name of Recovering Government Funds, which they said my husband Embezzled from the Government of Kenya during his regime as the Vice President. Just last year, during the one-year remembrance of my Husband’s Death, I was then allowed to go into his Personal Bedroom as the Tradition of Our Community demands. I was going through some files in His (My Husband) Bedroom when I came across this file that stated a business transaction of Diamond and Gold, which my Husband had with a company in South Africa worth US$28,800,000.00 {Twenty Eight Million, Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollar). This fund is Presently Under the Custody of Finance Company fully documented under my name { YVONNE WAMALWA}.
The finance company has contacted me to come for the claims of the funds. But my purpose of contacting is that I do not want the funds to be sent to Kenya, based on the fact that it will be confiscated by the Kenyan Government as they have taken all liquid cash and properties my husband left for the family . I want you to stand as Family Partner to receive this fund into your account for investment purpose, I wish to leave Kenya as soon as the fund comes into your account. I will come over to meet you with my little daughter to invest this money with you as my business partner. We shall sign an investment agreement as soon as I meet with you in your country. I will give you more details/next step as soon as I get your favorable response, hope to read from you as soon as possible. Awaiting your urgent reply via email address: (y_wamalwa@yahoo.com)
Regards,
Mrs. Yvonne Wamalwa.
