have kept this secretly since them to enable us execute the transfer of the
fund in case none of the decease relation came up for the claim. We have
been planning for the completion of this project ever since and the proper
time for us to execute the transfer is now.

approval will be issue and payment made into your nominated bank account. Be
rest assured that their is no risk involved as I have perfected and made the
necessary arrangements to back you up in claiming the fund but you have to
maintain the high secrecy which this transaction demands as the bank does
