Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am Evangelist
Lindy Mike, The duaghter of Late Sherrif Kindimbu from Weste Africa Nigeria.
I am 34years old,my mother is From England,while my father is from Nigeria,I
am an half cast (White Girl) I married to Late John from England, I am now
a new christian convert,suffering from long time liver problem.
>From all indications, my condition is serious and according to my doctor it
is quite obvious that I may not survive the sickness,although as a
christain,I beleive God and I know that I will not die,I will leave to
declare the glory of God. My late Husband Late Mr.John Mike is From
England,he and my only son was killed by his family members,because he does
not agree with them, I am presently leaving alone.Our Lord Jesus Christ is
my comforter.
After the death of my husband,I made up my mind to travel abroad to leave
the rest of my life and continue to do the work of God as a missionary.I
called our lawyer and I instructed him to sell all my Husband properties and
shares to enable me raise some money to conitue my mission.
The lawyer sold the Shares and some of the properties and he was able raise
the sum of ($15,500,000.00(Fifteen Million Five Hundred Thousand US
Dollars)The fund is in cash,for the safety of the fund till am able to
travel out,he packaged the fund in consignments deposited it with UNITED
BANK FOR AFRICA UBA PLC.
Presently,all the documents concerning the FUND are with me, Now that my
sickness has gone to this stage,I am scared and I want the fund to be used
for the work of God all over the world. I have prayed and I told God to
direct me to an honest christain who will receive this fund and utilise it
for things that will glorify the name of God After my
prayers,I searched the christian site in the internet,I found your email
address and contacted you.
Please if you are interested in using this Fund for the work of God,please
send to me your private phone and fax number full names and address to

for immediate arrangement with the UNITED BANK FOR AFRICA on how the Fund
