As top civil servants we are not authorized to operate foreign bank account and this is why we have contacted you, to stand as the contractor so that we will use your bank account to transfer this money outside Ghana.
We have accepted you as our foreign partner and will now regularize the approvals to you as the trust beneficiary and the contractor.
As soon we receive your acceptance, we shall inform you of the necessary requirement from you to facilitate the transfer.
