Attn: Sir/Madam,
PAYMENT NOTIFICATION OF YOUR FUNDS.
Definately, I know that this letter will be a surprising one to you.Firstly,
I will like to introduce myself formally as Prof. Charles Soludo,The
Executive Governor of The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
You are been officially contacted by me today because your Inheritance Funds
were Re-depositted into the "Federal Suspense Account" of CBN last week,
because you did not forward your Claim as the Right beneficiary.Well known
to all, The Central Bank of Nigeria is the mother Bank of all commercial
Banks here in Nigeria.
Really these men were unexpected by me because their visit was impromptu.I
had to ask them why they came to see me in person and they said that they
were here to Collect the Inheritance Bill Sum of (US$20,000,000) which
rightfully belongs to you, on your behalf.
At this development I asked them who authorized them to come down to Nigeria
for the Collection of this Payment and they told me that you asked them to
come and collect this Funds on your Behalf. Infact this was the biggest
shock that this Bank have ever received so far because your Inheritance
Funds is still in the "Federal Suspense Account" of CBN,yet you sent these
men to come and collect this Funds on your behalf without notifying us.
We in this Bank do not understand why you sent these men to come and Collect
your Funds on your behalf. If actually you want them to help you Collect
your Inheritance Bill Sum, atleast you should have informed me as the
Executive Governor of this Bank.
They actually tendered some Vital Documents which Proved that you actually
sent them for the Collection of this Funds. Honestly, it really baffles me
that you took such decision without my consent. Here are the Document which
they tendered to this Bank today:
1. LETTER OF ADMINISTRATION.
2. HIGH COURT INJUCTION.
3. ORDER TO RELEASE.
Actually, these Documents which they tendered to this Noble Bank is a clear
Proof that you sent them to Collect this Funds for you.
Finally,told them to come back tommorrow morning and they promised to come
back.
As the Governor of this Noble Bank, I was supposed to Release this Funds to
them but I refused to do so because I wanted to hear from you first.
Due to the Nature of my job, I will not want to make any mistake in
Releasing this Funds to anyone except you whom is the Recognised Bonafide
Beneficiary to this Funds.
Kindly clearify us on this issue before we make this Payment to these
foreigners whom came on your behalf.In receipt of this confidential
Letter,you are required to call this Bank immediately you receive this
Confidential Letter.
OFFICIALLY SIGNED.
PROF. CHARLES SOLUDO.
GOVERNOR, CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA.
