Then the chairman signed the form that after 13 months I should come and collect 230, ooo naira both my capital and profits. 100, 000 naira my capital and 130, 000 naira is the profits. I shouldn't collect until on fixed signed date and amount fixed in the form at the beginning. They wouldn't charge me for any loss or accident when happens during the transaction because they have registered in insurance company, the insurance company will handle any losses.
