Subject: Don't we deserve to live?
Dear Good one,
I am Jumai Aishat Abacha, the second wife of late Gen. Sani Abacha, the de
facto President of Nigeria from 1993 to 1998. My husband General Abacha
died, allegedly of a heart attack, in June 1998 while at the presidential
villa in Abuja.
Ever since his death, my family has known no peace hence; we have continued
to receive molestations and embarrassments from the government and his
unfriendly friends. The Government has taken over virtually everything that
my late husband labored for leaving us destitute. Our estates, refineries,
cash and properties, which were in Millions of US Dollars, were confiscated
by the Government. In fact, we have been physically and morally tortured to
the extent that frustration set in and I have to run to United Kingdom to
save my life but my problem is yet unsolved because my children are still
under intensive surveillance and as one in asylum, I lack the potentials and
financial resources to get them out of the country.
Please I need your urgent help before my children perishes. As ALLAH may
have it, one of the deposits of US$22,000,000.00 we have in a commercial
bank in one of the West African countries wasn't traced by the Government.
No one knows about it except our family lawyer who is fighting relentlessly
to get my children out of the country. This sum is our last hope to save our
souls. I am pleading for your humanity and assistance to work with our
lawyer to get this fund in your custody. I will be most delighted to
relocate and make investment in your country as soon as the fund is secured
by you.
I know this is going to take your time but please help to save our soul. We
have undergone a great deal of inhumanity and punishment but at least, we
deserve to live. I am relying increasingly upon you to bring life to my
family once again. You can read from this site to have clear understanding
of our situation for well over 9 years now.

May ALLAH Bless you and your family always.
Yours Sincerely,
Mrs. Jumai Aishat Abacha
