We cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines, unfortunately, no family member nor relative has ever appeared to claim the said fund. Upon this discovery, we now seek your permission to have you stand as next of kin to the deceased so that the funds (US$3,500,000.00) can be released and paid into your account as the beneficiary's next of kin otherwise the fund will be returned to treasury as unclaimed funds which will subsequently be donated to the trust fund for arms and ammunition to further enhance the course of war in the Africa.
