Ah, yet another "Prof. Charles C. Soludo" scam email... Did you receive an email stating that "Send the above fee through Dr. S. Usman`s personal assistance to enable us perfect the transfer. Send the $220 through the listed Name."? It is a scam. We can't understand why anyone would think this is legitimate.
Unless you are a contractor who has worked in Nigeria and is still owed money from the work, it ought to be apparent that this is plainly a scam. Also see related scams on this page and this page
