Dear friend,

LETTER OF ASSISTANCE
====================
I write this letter of assistance with a great sense
of honour and
responsibility in care of ALHAJI HAMZA AHMED, The decision
to write to you was
arrived at after a critical consideration of its
urgency and the severe
pain/terror my entire family had gone through with the
present Civilian
Government of Nigeria after the death of my husband.

I am Dr. (Mrs.) Mariam Abacha, wife of the late
Nigeria Head of State, General
Sanni Abacha, who died on the 8th of June, 1998, while
still on active duty. I
am contacting you in view of the fact that we will be
of great help to each
other and also develop a cordial business
relationship in the near future.

Since the strange and unfortunate death of my husband
(may God's mercy be upon
him), the government has turned against my family and
myself. At first, I
thought it was a normal interrogation from my
husband's enemies but I was proved
wrong. My eldest son, Mohammed is being detained at
the Kirikiri Maximum
Prison, Lagos and most of our bank accounts known to
the Government have been
frozen to frustrate us. It has dawn on us now that it
is a serious battle
between General Olusegun Obasanjo's Government and my
family. As my husband's
regime put him in jail before he was released, he now
wants to get back at us.
My husband's closest associates have betrayed and
deserted us and I no longer
trust anyone of them. Therefore, I am requesting for
your urgent assistance to
help my family and myself have hope through my nephew
to handle this
transaction.

We are going through severe hardship, my son, Mohammed
is in jail and the
remaining ones and myself are under restricted
movement by the Federal
Government of Nigeria. The new democratic President,
General Olusegun Obasanjo
has seized more than US$700,000,000.00 million Dollars
already including landed
properties and investment in Nigeria. You can find
this out in news watch of
7,8,15,21 of year 2000 on website http://
www.newswatchngr.com or Tell of 24th
july 2000 on website http:// www.tell.com.org.

I very much know that I am under surveillance by the
Federal Government of
Nigeria, so I have been making all my contacts through
my nephew without the
Government agents' knowledge.

I currently have within my reach the sum of Fifty-five
Million United States
Dollars ($55,000,000.00), which I intend to use for
investment, like Real Estate
Development specifically in your country. This money
came as a payback contract
deal between my late husband and a Russian Firm on our
country's multi-billion
Dollars Ajaokuta Steel Plant. The Russian Partners
returned my husband's share
of US$55,000,000.00 before his death and was lodged in
my husband's Security
Company of which I am a Director, the new Civilian
Government have intensified
their probe on my husband's financial and oil company.
In view of these, l
acted fast to withdraw the US$55,000,000.00 from the
Company's vault and
deposited as family treasure in a Security Company in
foregn cuntry for safe
custody. I have since declared my husband's Security
Company bankrupt. No
record ever existed concerning the money traceable by
the government because
there is no documentation showing that we received the
money from the Russian.
Due to the current situation in the country concerning
government attitude
towards my family, it has become quite impossible for
me to make use of this
money within, thus consent I shall expect you to
contact me urgently to enable
us discuss in detail about this transaction.

Bearing in mind that your assistance is needed to
transfer this fund, I proposed
a percentage of 30% of the total sum to you for the
expected service and
assistance, 5% for offsetting minor expenses incurred
in the course of this
transaction and 15% wil be used for investment
probably in your company. Your
urgent response is highly needed as to stop further
contacts.

All correspondences must be by the Telephone and Fax
numbers or e-mail address
above. I must use this opportunity to implore you to
exercise the utmost
indulgence to keep this matter extraordinarily
confidential whatever your
decision while await your prompt response.

May the Almighty Allah bless you.

Best regards,

DR. (MRS.) MARIAM ABACHA
