Many commend the actions of an employee of the Nigeria Aviation Handling Company, who returned the staggering amount of money he found while cleaning a plane.
The employee named, Awul Dankode, a worker at Malam Aminu Kano International Airport in Kano, was cleaning one of the aircraft when he stumbled on $10,000.
Instead of keeping the money to himself, the honest worker decided to report what he had found to the company’s manager, so that the rightful owner could be found and the money returned.
A security analyst and counter-insurgency expert, Zagazola Makaman, posted about the incident on X (Twitter). He mentioned that an investigation was ongoing to find the rightful owner.
