Sule Lamido and his sons were put on trail in 2015 for embezzling state funds by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (I assume of Nigeria).   I wonder what their business investment proposal is, do they need latex salespeople?   They would have better luck contacting George Costanza.

Sounds legit to me.  Wonder if I can get in on this great deal.
