Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Enetonbra Alamieyeseigha, I am the son of the embattled
Governor of the oil rich bayelsa state in the niger delta area of
nigeria and my father is a member of the ruling party in my country. At
this moment my father is being investigated for money laundry and also
has been impeached due to the dramatic return to the country, following his arrest over money laundering charges and gross misconduct. He has been investigated by the Economic and financial crime commission
(EFCC).
Most of his properties and his personal accounts both within and
outside the country have been frozen. The total value of the properties
seized in London alone is well over 381 million pounds. The Government
has also tightened the noose around his neck, slamming a 19-count
charge against him at the code of conduct tribunal. The Government has accused my dad of making false declaration of his asset, and
maintaining and operating foreign bank accounts which it said
constituted an abuse of office that contravenesprovisions of the code
of conduct act.
This practice is a standard practice in my country even the president
and his cronnies have foreign accounts. My father problem started when
he decided to peach his political tent with the incumbent Vice
President thereby putting him against the incumbent president. The
President and his vice has been at logger heads since the 2003
presidential election in my country. My father was even given a life
line by the presidency, which he refused. He was told to denounce the
Vice President and return back to the camp of the president. If he does
that, all charges will be dropped, but ofcourse he refused. This, the
president saw as a total disregard to him and he office. I need not say
much, go to google search, type the name(GovernorD.S.P Alamieyeseigha) and click search, you will get all the information you need.
As I said earlier all accounts has been frozen thereby making assess to
cash impossible. I havn't seen my father since he was arrested .
Because of this,we do not have the machinery to carry out one or two
things we want to do. I am using this medium to solicit for your
assistance in transferring all that is left of my father's wealth he
starched away both in Europe and some other banks in my country that
are yet to be discovered. Based on this you are to assist in ansferring
the funds to your own personal accounts or as you wish. After
transferring the money, you will be given a percentage of the
total sum transferred. The percentage is negotiable.
From the whole story, you obviously see that there should be some
secrecy in this transaction in protection of all parties involved, you
inclusive. We assume that most of our phone and fax lines will be
tapped so, if you are willing to assist you are to list your phone and
fax numbers so I can contact you. This is important as we will have to
talk about the modalities of the transfer. Time is of great essence in
this matter thank you for your assistance.
Waiting to hear from you.
Yours truly,
Enetonbra Alamieyeseigha.
