Dear,
Please do not mind my written or spoken English, I’ still learning. Do not feel bothered; rather see it in your heart to read my letter.
Sudan is the largest country by area in Africa and the largest Arab country by area. It is bordered by Egypt to the north, the Red Sea to the northeast, Eritrea and Ethiopia to the east, Kenya and Uganda to the southeast, Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Central African Republic to the southwest, Chad to the west, and Libya to the northwest. It is the tenth largest country in the world by area.
The geology of Sudan indicates one of the richest countries in mineral resources. The following mineral ores have been discovered all over the country: iron, cooper, chrome, manganese, gold, silicon, in addition to lime stone, marble, gypsum, mica, talk, natural gas. Over and above, the country is endowed natural resources and a lot of training institutions which assist in developing these resources.
I have dedicated my life and recently family fortune to the Lost Boys of Sudan, a group of young orphaned refugees forced from their villages by war to trek hundreds of miles through African wilderness. Thousands died along the way — they drowned, were eaten by wild animals, shot by military forces or overcome by hunger, dehydration or fatigue. Thousands of others survived to tell the story. It is a story about the courage of these young refugees and the kindness of those who have helped us. However, it also is a story about all refugees who travel through unimaginable conditions and survive against all odds.
Right now, am in the refugee camp in Chad , in Africa . Before the war start in my country, where I lost my parents, my father, a gold merchant, informed me on his business activities in Spain . Thank God for diary, I had access to my father’s diary where he recorded all his transactions in Spain and I discovered that he deposited some reasonable cash with a security company in Spain . I want to use this fund to help my young men and women of my country who are in this refugee camp with me.
I am incapacitated at this moment to travel to Spain ; I don’t have a passport to travel; so my purpose of writing to you to handle this with the security company. Immediately the fund gets to your possession, I will not direct you on what to do. The most important thing is trust. You can visit me here in Camp so that we can talk quietly; I just need your guidance and assistance. I wait for your response.
God bless you as you respond back to me.
James Dioup
