The office of the presidency is not happy about this development and they have contacted the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Police to speed action immediately to arrest those criminals immediately as they are the bad eggs damaging the image of this great country. So for your information, you are advice to stop any further communication or corresponding with them as they don't have anything to do with your payment. Your payment will only be released to you via the Federal Government of Nigeria Authorized Off-Shore payment offices in Germany. The details information of the office is:-
DIBA BANK GERMANY

Finally, if this office finds out that you are still contacting those offices both here and outside, we will put a stop to that payment immediately without your notice and be informed that the Economic Commission for Africa have been notified about this development as well. A word is enough for a wise.
