HELLO SIR ,
i am barrister frank usman a registered lawyer in my country. I have a
client whose husband
was killed by unknown assassinators .The Wife of Engr. Funsho Williams
the Governor aspirant of Lagos state . This woman came to my office
last
week requesting for my assistance. She pleaded me to search for a
renowned trustworthy foreigner who will standing on behalf of the
family
to secure some money the husband deposited with a security company in
Europe before, he met his untimely death .I promised the woman to come
back on a later day tomorrow or nest by then I might have confirmed
from you if
you will be interested /willing to assist the family in securing the
fund from the security company .According to the woman she said the
husband deposited the money with security company for his political
ambition for the forth coming election 2007,and you have to understand
that the security company did not know the content of the fun.because
it was deposited as a raw material ,and know that this must be secrit ,
How ever, I confirmed from the widow of late Engr. Funsho William that
the husband deposited $100M .Infact, when the woman mentioned the
amount, fear griped me but I had courage because I knew the family in
Nigeria as a rich family and I am also their family Barrister.
Due to my trust in the family, I decided to highlight of this business
at hand
if you will keen to stand on behalf of the family.
I tried to get more words from the woman , she promise to let go 20% to
the foreigner .Their intention for seeking for an assistance of a
foreigner , is to avoid the wind of the fund not to reach the Present
Government ,that killed the husband.
Kindly, give me an immediate attention to the woman request as to
enable know what to tell her tomorrow.and i hope you are somone i can
