This money came as a result of a pay-back contract deal between my
Late husband and a Russian firm in our country's Multi-billion dollar
Ajaokuta Steel plant.
No record whatsoever exists concerning the money traceable by the
Government because, there is no documentation showing that we received
the money from the Russians.

I shall expect you to contact me urgently to enable me introduce my
Family attorney and he can discuss in detail about this transaction.
