This was the subject we discussed on air recently, in Port Harcourt South South Nigeria.

Here is yet another story of an airport staff who returned huge amount of money she found in the toilet
Meet the airport staff cleaner who earns  N7,500, discovered $27,000 (N5.4m) and returned it

Presented above is an extremely genuine lady, Josephine Agwu, who works as a cleaner at the Murtala  Muhammed International Airport in Lagos where while cleaning one of the toilets at the airplane terminal on January 23rd, found a pack containing $27,000 which is 5.4 million in Naira. Josephine took the sack to the security post at the airport terminal for a declaration to be made about the owner.


 The lady  earns only N7,800 as her monthly stipend for a 12-hours normal employment. Josephine, who is from Enugu state addressed us concerning why she took the choice to give back the cash. Read her story after the cut...

"I am from Enugu State, from Obonkpa in Nsukka Local Government. I stay at Agbotukunyo in Agege. The episode happened on the 23rd of January 2015. I was on morning duty, So as I was clearing around 6:30pm, I saw the pack on the ground and there were a few travellers there so I believed that the sack could have a place with one of them. Yet, as I shut down at 7:20pm, my relieve came at  that time. I was heading off to the latrine once more, I saw the same pack there. At that point I told the travellers staying there that they ought to  check  the pack if it belongs to them, because if they board their flight, they may overlook it. They answered that the pack did not belong to them. Three of the travellers left, so I  picked the sack and took it to the FAAN security  men. Initially, they put the pack on the screening machine, before they opened the sack and found that it contained  cash in various currencies, including dollars. As they were counting it, I saw an NDLEA lady joined by one man and the two  of them were coming towards us. They said that the man could be the owner of the pack. So when they came in, they met the man and the man specified the measure of cash and the shade of the sack. Before then, they had checked the cash and it was precisely the sum that the man said. At that point they  gave the money to the man to confirm the amount. After that,  they inquired as to whether the cash was complete, he said yes and they snapped him picture. They got some information about three times and they told the man that, 'take a look at the lady that picked the sack, and the man  took a  look at me. His name is Mr. Obinna Samuel. They let him know that he ought to thank his God that if it were someone else, that individual would have fled with the sack yet this lady didn't do that. So I  was exited and the man took the cash and put inside the sack and left. At that point FAAN security personnel got back to me, and they took my number On-Duty-Card (ODC) and my name. That was how it happened. Individuals are commending me, FAAN said that they are going to give me  a higher  job however I have not got notification from them till now. Individuals ought to acknowledge what they have. Individuals do a considerable measure of terrible things since they are not content with what they have. With the little I earn, I attempt to use it well. If  that I can't deal with that little

money I earn, even if I earn    N1 million, I will even not know how to be satisfied with it. Along these lines, I am advising each Nige­rian to be glad in any circumstance they find themselves. Try not to be speedier than your shadow since such a variety of things will turn out badly. In some cases things get terrible on the grounds that individuals need to do like others. All fin­gers are not equal. Beyond any doubt God guaranteed the individuals who serve him wealth, yet individuals ought to be watchful how they go about it. I am advising individuals to be pa­tient. It is on the grounds that individuals need speedy cash that is the reason a few people become criminals.

With respect to my administration, in reality they are glad, every one of my chiefs. In short they are doing great things for me, even they are treating me like an  egg, even my MD. They have added cash to my pay. To put it plainly, my director, Madam Eunice has been doing numerous things for me since the occurrence, commending me. She said that she realizes that she can believe me, and that I can't see anything that does not belong to  me and I take it away" she said

Josephine says for demonstrating such an exceptional choice, her organization has chosen to expand her pay from N7,800 to N15,000 monthly.  Furthermore the administration of FAAN has guaranteed to make her a permanent staff.

"FAAN (Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria) said that they are going to give me programmed vocation, yet I have not got notification from them till now. With respect to my administration, they are upbeat, every one of my administrators. So, they are doing great things for me. Presently, they carry me like  an egg,
