But was murdered in cold blood by unknown gun men just a two weeks to the April 19th 2003 election the election that brought this present evil government to power for the second time.
My husband was killed because he wanted thenigerians to live a very happy live.But the bucanneers that has been ruling this beautiful country for over 35years refuse to allow a change,so they decided to kill him in order to have their way.Meanwhile we are fromeleme (an oil rich town) in south south Nigeria.My community produces 5.8% of the total crude oil production in Nigeria and 0.5% of the Dollar value of each barrelis paid to my husband as royalty by the Federal Government since he is from oil rich region.
My husband was also the Chairman of ELEME Special Oil Trust Fund.In his position as the Chairman of the Oil Trust Fund, he made some money which he left for me as the only heir apparent. The money is Twenty Million, Seven Hundred Thousand US Dollars(US$20.7). This Money originated from the accumulated royalties between 1976-1998 Due to poor banking system in Nigeria and political instability as a resultof long stay of Military in Government.He deposited this Money in a Strong Room/VAULTS with an open beneficiary in asecuritycompanypending when he would finish arrangement to transfer it abroad .
He was planning this before they murdered him inside his living room . Just before my husband was murdered, one day he called meand told me this government might kill him if care is not taken due to the differences he had with the government. But he is not worried he says if they kill him since he is fighting the cause of the poor masses.Then he called my attention to the money and charged me to look for a foreigner who would assist me in the transfer/investment of the funds abroad.
So l would be very grateful if you could accept to help me achieve this great objective.I promise to give you 30% of the total funds transferred to your vital bank account as compensation for your assistance. Five percent (5%)has been set aside to take care of all expenses we may incure during the transaction.
