Dear Beneficiary,
 
I am Dr. Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi, Special Adviser to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria on Economic Matters.
 
The Attention of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has been drawn to complaints and petitions from numerous foreign payment beneficiaries and contractors about the non-payment of their foreign payments(Inheritance payment, Contract payment and Lotter payment). The President is embarrassed by this disclosure and is very sorry for the inconveniences you might have experienced with the non-payment of your foreign payment.
 
I have been instructed by the President to verify and release all verified foreign payments to their beneficiaries. The Federal Government of Nigeria has entered a debt buyback agreement with the Central Bank and the Local banks to enable you get your payment without delay. Your payment will be released to you directly from the Excess Crude Account of the Federal Government of Nigeria while the bank withholding your foreign payment will refund the Federal Government.
 
It has been established that you are yet to receive your payment. I therefore urge you that you contact me immediately for the immediate release of your payment to you.
 
Contact me with your:
1. Full names
2. Address
2. Telephone and fax numbers
 
It has also come to our notice that fees, rates and charges for services rendered by the Central Bank of Nigeria and local banks for the release of your payments are duplicitously inflated by desk and scheduled officer to facilitate the release of your foreign payment. Even after the payment of these bogus and rudiculous fees, your foreign payment is not released to you.
 
A judicial/administrative panel of enquiry has been setup to investigate all these allegations. Members of this panel are The National Security Adviser, the Attorney General of the Federation, The state Security Services (SSS), the Inspector General of the Police, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Federal Minister of Finance. The panel has been mandated to get to the bottom of these allegations. Any local bank or official found wanting, culpable or liable will be dealt with according to the law.
 
This government is hinged on the rule of law and due process. No responsible government will fold its arms while the reputation and image of the country is tarnished by unscrupulous element.
 
Yours faithfully,
Dr. Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi.
Special Adviser to the President on Economic Matters.
