wiser investing in real estates and also agreed to open a fresh account after informing you that 25% will be giving to you people while 5% must be mapped out 4 expenses that will be incurred in transfer processes while 70% must be kept for my family investment anywhere you deemed wise like real estates.
My concern has centered on how I could transfer my fathers money amounting to US$20 Million (Twenty Million United States Dollars) out of South Africa for a better investment abroad. I am GARY SMITH MADIBA, the son of NELSON MANDELA MADIBA. My father was the former President of South Africa who brought peace between the whites and blacks by serving 27 years in Prison, to cancel apartheid in the country so that every body will dwell in peace in this
country.
The time he became the President of my country (South Africa) he deposited a Vault Consignment Cash Money with a private Security Company on my behalf and I am the one that signed the documents should in case of what death might cause in future. Nevertheless, my father is still alive and right now I want to start investing outside the country with this very fund that is lying with a private Security Company. My father didnt want to use his name because he was the president, as of that time and also he do not want anything that will jeopardize his political courier as the president and his reputation.
Base on the fact, he gave me the fund, which is lying with a private Security Company as my own inheritance from him and warned me seriously not
