When my father was alive I used to move funds, in cash, running into millions of United States dollars to Brazil, Lebanon and other parts of the world, for safe keeping on behal However, on the eve of my fathers death in June 8, 1998, he gave me the sum of US$40.3(FORTY MILLION THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS)in cash to move to Lebanon as usual, but immediately my father died I had to move the fund to EUROPE through a diplomatic courier service to a trust security company in EUROPE.
The funds have been in the security company in EUROPE since July 1998.However, because of the many restrictions placed on my family by the present Nigerian Government, I simply cannot travel to EUROPE to secure the funds from the security company in EUROPE.
