My US$3000 Challenge

I am in urgent need of US$3000 (three thousand dollars) within 24 hours to pay for house rent for one year.

Presently, due to critical economic crunch and delayed incomes, I don't have any money to pay for house rent and the welfare of my poor dependants of underprivileged children in Nigeria.

Delays in my incomes have been caused by lack of sales of my books on Amazon and other booksellers and delays in the acquisition of the film and TV rights to the movies and series I am marketing for producers and distributors.

I will be grateful for every amount of support I receive within 24 hours before I become homeless tomorrow.

CONTRIBUTION in USD can be sent to my bank account:

Guaranty Trust Bank Plc
365 Akin Adesola Street, Victoria Island, Lagos State, Nigeria.
Beneficiary name- EKENYERENGOZI MICHAEL CHIMA
Account number- 0016426307
Bank identifier/SWIFT CODE- GTBINGLA
SORT Code - 058152353

CONTRIBUTION in Naira should be sent to my Guaranty Trust Bank current account 0016426297 
Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima

Thank you for your support.

Gratefully,

PS:

If I receive more than the US$3000 I need urgently, the remaining money will be used for my charity for the education of underprivileged girls out of school in Nigeria which I have been supporting since 2013 by advocacy for girl education and the celebration of the annual United Nations' International Day of the Girl Child on every October 11.
