An employee of the Nigeria Aviation Handling Company, Auwal Dankode, has been commended for his honesty after returning $10,000 found in a plane.
Dankode, a worker at Malam Aminu Kano International Airport in Kano, was said to have discovered $10,000, about N16m while cleaning the aircraft.
A security analyst and counter-insurgency expert, Zagazola Makaman, said in a post on the X platform on Wednesday that Dankode, after discovering the cash, promptly reported the incident to the airline company’s manager, initiating a search for the rightful owner.
His immediate action, according to Zagazola, has earned him widespread praise and admiration.
Zagazola said Dankode, a native of Kode in Kano State, is renowned for his strong fear of God and unwavering integrity.
His selfless act, he said, has highlighted the importance of honesty and accountability in the workplace.
The airport authorities are still searching for the owner of the money as at the time of this report
