I lived in Nigeria for 5 years. They are well known for their scams. Forget it.

Hey, this isn't April Fool's Day. Or is it? Wait, it may be for real.
Is it $35,000,000 in cash? That's the usual number.

A scientist bringing back a suitcase full of cash to the US from
Nigeria. Sounds legit to me.
Terminate the contract.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Anyone had problems with Ahmadu Bellow University in
Nigerian
All:
WSU has been working with ABU (Ahmadu Bellow University) in Nigeria on a
World Bank flow-through funded contract. ABU is not willing to transfer
funding by account transfer or warrant (as required by the contract) but
instead, wants our PI to bring Nigerian cash back with him to the US.
Have any of you had similar experiences with ABU? If so, how did you
resolve this? Your input is appreciated. Thanks, Brenda
