I got your contact during a desperate search here in Dakar Senegal for a possible investment transaction. My (late) father HON DR.KEBBA KHEWAL, who was the former ministre of finance and economy in Sudan before he was assinated by the rebels in the capital city of Khartoon 2003.

All the vital documents are with my mum here and will be fax to you as our foreign partner for investment. Meanwhile,we are saddled with the problem of securing a trust worthy foriegn personality to help us transfer the money and invest it in his country and into his possession pending our arrival to meet with him.
