Subject: DEAR FRIEND!!!!!!
Dear Friend,
I am Engr. Beniah Elemchukwu Ojum, the Executive Director,
Projects,to the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
This commission was inaugurated to eleviate the suffering of the Niger
Delta indigenes through constructions of Roads,Rural Electrification,
portable waters etc.
The Niger Delta indigenes of Nigeria are the Oil producing area of the
country that has been neglected by successive government,untill this
commission was inaugurated to map out a master plan for the
development of the region,and i think we have done well so far.
Only recently,we were able to complete the construction of a solar
powered water Scheme in Rivers State of Nigeria to the tune of
$148.5m.This project was sponsored by Chevron Oil and other Multi
National oil companies in the region in Collaboration with the Federal
government.
During the award of the contract,i and the Managing Director of the
commission, Mr. Timi Alaibe was able to inflate the contract value
with $28.5m.
So far the original contractor has been paid and the over inflated
fund is still in the suspence account of the commission awaiting
payment.
It is on this reason that i am writting you to assist us receive the
money into your custody
since we need a foreigner whom we will present as one of the
contractors to the commission.
All details of the transaction will be clearly spelt out to you as
soon as i confirm your readiness to assist.
You should also indicate your commission for accepting to assist us
bearing in mind that such commission will be negotiated among us.
