ATTENTION : THE PRESIDENT/C.E.O
RE: URGENT & CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL
Dear Sir,
I am DR. Mekudi Waziri (JP) Member Contract Award Committee of the above
Department
Terms of Reference
My term of reference involves the award of contracts to multinational companies.
My office is saddled with the responsibility of contract award, screening,
categorization and prioritization of projects embarked upon by Department of
Petroleum Resources (DPR) as well as feasibility studies for selected projects
and supervising the project consultants involved. A breakdown of the fiscal
expenditure by this office as at the end of last fiscal quarter of 2000
indicates that DPR paid out a whooping sum of US$736M(Seven Hundred And Thirty
Six Million, United States Dollars) to successful contract beneficiaries. The
DPR is now compiling beneficiaries to be paid for the fourth Quarter of 2001.
The crux of this letter is that the finance/contract department of the DPR
deliberately over ?invoiced the contract value of the various contracts
awarded.
In the course of disbursements, this department has been able to accumulate the
sum of US$38.2M(Thirty-eight Million, two hundred Thousand U.S Dollars) as the
over-invoiced sum. This money is currently in a suspense account of the DPR
account with the Debt Reconciliation Committee (DRC). We now seek to process
the
transfer of this fund officially as contract payment to you as a foreign
contractor, who will be fronting for us as the beneficiary of the fund. In this
way we can facilitate these funds into your nominated account for possible
investment abroad. We are not allowed as a matter of government policy to
operate any foreign account to transfer this fund into.
However, for your involvement in assisting us with this transfer into your
nominated account we have evolved a sharing formula as follows:
(1) 20% for you as the foreign partner
(2) 75% for I and my colleagues
(3) 5% will be set aside to defray all incidental expenses both Locally and
Internationally during the course of this transaction.
We shall be relying on your advice as regard investment of our share in any
business in your country. Be informed that this business is genuine and 100%
safe considering the high-power government officials involved. Send your
private
fax/telephone numbers. Upon your response we shall provide you with further
information on the procedures. Feel free to send response by Fax: 234-1-7590904
/
TEL: 234-1-7591519 expecting your response urgently. All enquiries should be
directed to the undersigned by FAX ,E-MAIL OR PHONE.
Looking forward to a good business relationship with you.
Sincerely,
DR. Mekudi Waziri (JP)
