I am his only surviving son and as a matter of fact i am presently with my mother at the refugee camp in Accra Ghana due to the harsh treatment imposed on us by the government of Sudan. My Mother and I were forced to the refugee camp in Accra Ghana to suffer and it was like we were been exiled from our land, i must confess to you that we have not be doing fine ever since the demise of my late father.
I was forcefully made to stop my schooling due to this and i have no hope again of going back to my studies till the very day my mother opened up a secret to me.
My Mother told me that my late father during his active days in government deposited the huge sum of $33.2M USD (Thirty Three Million and Two Hundred thousand United States Dollars) with Bank of Ghana, and i need someone who can help me in getting this funds out of the bank to his country where I can also relocate to and complete my studies. I was meant to realize that my father has made the deposit for investment purposes and needs a foreign partner to invest the money with before he met his untimely death. Please, if you can help me to achieve this so that i and my mother will not die of hunger, and that i can also continue my education in your country, i will really appreciate it.
I will also need your encouragement and wisdom in utilizing the funds well into a very good investment in your country that you think will benefit both of us. I am ready to sign an agreement with you and i promise to give you %20 percent of the total funds for your inconveniences.
Dear friend, I hope all what i am asking is not too much for you
to carry and please find it in your heart to assist me in my endeavor so that i can once again stand and regain my status among people.
I look forward to your reply and wish to help me.
Thanks and God bless you and your family
Chol Francis Garang.
