This letter is written to inform you the reason behind your delay payment. I am Rev. Ashii Ashii the Director, International Remittance Department of this Bank,my Formal Boss,Mr.Jacobs M.Ajekigbe,the Managing
Director/CEO of this bank is now on compulsory leave and all power have been vested on me to make all international payments. Also,due to reported cases of corrupt practices in other Nigeria Banks including the
Central Bank of Nigeria, the Federal Government has revoked/canceled all power vested on those banks and has appointed our bank (First Bank of Nigeria) to make all foreign payments.
Be informed that the Federal Government have approved the release of part-payment of $7.5M (Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) out of your total funds,which has been in this bank for
many years unclaimed because Mr. Jacobs Ajekigbe, Collaborated with the Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)and have refused to tell you the truth on how to claim your fund this is because he has been
using the interest accumulated funds.
After the transfer,you will confirm the fund in your bank account within 5 hours the same day. No Cost of Transfer (COT) and no stoppage from any Government departments as the transfer will be done within the
bank alone and it is very safe.The method which was introduced to you before is the Telegraphic Transfer (TT) for which confirmation was 48hrs because of the time factor petitions could come from various
organizations stopping your payment and asking you to pay huge fee which would be difficult for you to pay so that they can benefit from the huge interest your fund generates while still in the Bank.
This method is not safe for you because it is not done within the bank alone as information of the payment would be sent to the Central Control Unit (CCU) of the Federal Ministry of Finance and office of the
Accountant General of the Federation. As a good Christian, I have nothing to gain by keeping your fund, I want to assist you receive your fund Before it accumulate Dumurrage.You have to follow up and work
