I like the effort these men made , but I wonder why the authorities didn't report the matter to the security agencies. Finding such a huge amount is quite questionable....
Bros which one is your own
Did they mention the amount found?

not to belittle what they did but if the owner later returned to report the loss of the bag and investigation carried out by the appropriate authority,it could easily have been caught on cctv cos it happened in the car park and the culprits apprehended

I'm proud of you. And as it's been said:

You would “forever be remembered in the annals of the industry as role models, reference points, shining lights and good ambassadors.

Some others may look at you and tag you stupid, but I want to assure you that by virtue of this act, you have secured seats for yourselves in the comity of those with credibility and integrity.

Nigeria wont get rid of corruption until we start to understand that you can`t pay for good services with money...rather you should give a form of investment, education etc. If these men were given quality education in importing security outfits and gadgets, dont you think they would become security consultants and earn more than the #250,000 given to each of them. An investment in their security company Halogen can also do them well, A clause of giving any family member free education for life. But they feel the #250,000 is enough to buy their honesty...i cry for these men because all their families and friends and even enemies go carry bill come all because of the #250,000 and they cant even deny not having money....so they just gave these men money called OUR MONEY, US MONEY, WE MONEY grin grin grin grin

On a serious note, if am the one that saw that money,i will return it but I must remove and hide some dollars, since the bag is full with dollar's, helping myself with some few dollars will not be a bad idea.

look at it like this ; Airport security , bag abandoned at airport , you can open the bag , find it's full of cash and zoom , take off , though not without concequences or , you can open and boom ! , greed just turned you and god knows many other victims into casualties of a major terrorist attack , OR , you can radio security base about a suspected package while keeping everyone away at a safe distance . The security personnel opted for the latter option as best they could . Bottomline , they are good mem who did their job in a proffesional way , lay off them . You'll wish for these kind the next time you lose valuables .

This is what many failed to realize!

You're not 'being a Nigerian'. You're a criminal with no sense of human decency. And if there's a hell you should burn in it for eternity.

If it makes you feel better, I'll be there to burn with you. As that bag wont be the only reason I'm in hell.

Very funny comments. cheesy grin

I pride myself as having a conscience at least. But even for me, I pray not to fall into this type of temptation. Because in all honesty, the mind will be torn between 'return' and 'keep'. cheesy

I commend them. They did well.

That would apply to a lot of people, what matters is the final decision they take. I've always maintained that what people need to coexist peacefully, is a working conscience. Not religious or cultural dogmas.

Honesty is a mustard seed, I returned an iPhone wedged between a hotel lounge seat 2 years ago.
The owner took my number, and enquired what my business is, which i did, just exactly 26th Nov 2017 I received a call from him, the rest, a roller coaster a contract after contract.

What would have happened if they took the money and flee out of Nigeria? Or have't you heard such stories before? Please do not be pained by the act of these two honest Baifrans


If they fled, for a start, process goes like this:
- investigation initiation
- suspects identification (easy part)
- suspects prelim visitation (info on file)
- suspects monitoring
- guarantors notification, invitation and interrogation (aka arrest on bail)
- suspects profiling
- intelligence gathering
- suspects profile dissemination
- fugitive haunt begins
- suspects caught later (whether at Anambra, Togo or Mozambique, Seychelles or Adelaide etc makes no difference)... simple!

And might take a little while, but they would have been found and arrested later. They knew the drill - steal the bag and go to jail! Only way they could escape it is if their guarantors paid back the equivalent in full, to save themselves of sitting in the dock on behalf of the criminals, and failing to produce them as guaranteed by the guarantors. Plus this is Nigeria, their family would have been found and “roughened up” too. Our Police might be far from perfect, but this case would be a stroll in the park for our finest officers at this stage of the country. I mean this is 2018, not 1972. There are cameras all over ( + other surveillance systems working 24/7). If you don’t believe me, go and steal a bag at the airport lobby, then run away. Let’s see if you will be caught or not. grin

Like I said before: “Honest my foot!”

But we've been hailing such act anytime it happens in the western world , most times doubthng if same can happen in nigeria , so don't they have surveillance cameras in the public places there too ? Can't these men run away with the money ? Please respect their good name as these are not our regular slay queens and drug traffickers et al that we've made it a pastime to bash on nairaland .


See, i’m not a gullible person driven by emotional sentiments. I know how the security system works. Before you’re employed as an airport security personnel, there’s a thorough vetting system in place. Don’t you know it’s a sensitive position? If your airport security is compromised or porous, then that’s BIG trouble for everyone. Any and every prospective asset to be employed, after normal verification, case file is sent to the SCID department for a thorough background check. Only those cleared would be approved. Over the years, our airport security system has exponentially improved. Many things people used to get away with, they can’t do it so easily again, very difficult. That’s why it’s easier now to catch drug traffickers, and they keep catching them like flies in a spiderweb; that’s why it’s easier to catch money launderers; easier to catch contrabands (if they want to catch it) etc! Our airport security is much improved, not like before, and it’s still improving. Gone are the days people (even airport staffers) easily steal within the airport premises and escape. If you try it now and escape, maybe your case was just a minor infraction or misdemeanor (like stealing a pen on the floor or small candy), and so, wasn’t worth pursuing. But go and steal someone’s luggage now and see if you won’t be caught, whether staff or not. In fact, it’s easier to catch an airport staffer than an outsider civilian, because the staff would be identified so quickly by the surveillance system. Presently, our airport (Lagos + Abuja) security system deserves some accolades. Many criminals have been humbled by it grin

You are just being yourself, not being a Nigerian. There is death sentence for corruption in countries like China, yet citizens there still steal and get death sentence.
You, being a thief that you are, has nothing to do with being a Nigerian.

all this people that will be forming one fake loyalty by returning dollars etc, its because most of them are scared of how they are going to change the money and the rest.. So the fastest way to get their share is to return it to the owner and hopefully they might get applauded and given some amount of money... Just an indirect way of collecting their share... Still am not saying we don't have honest and good people, just saying most of this people returning money are not doing it with their church mind. Na for reward..
