Achi Daniel, a junior security guard at Halogen Securities Limited who returned a bag containing dollars, jewellery, wristwatches and other documents that he found at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, on Saturday, has revealed that some of his friends mocked him for his honesty.
Speaking with journalists in Lagos on Thursday during a ceremony held to honour him and his supervisor, Francis Emepueaku, Achi said it was not his first time returning lost money in the course of discharging his duty.
The security company also rewarded the duo: Daniel and Francis with education scholarships and the sum of N250,000.
He explained that he was never overwhelmed by the contents of the bag and vowed to do same if he finds himself in a similar situation in future.
He also told journalists that he was not discouraged by those who mocked him, stating that his Christian background aided his character.
He said: “If the money was in multi-millions of foreign currencies, I would still have returned it.
He urged other Nigerians to emulate his character, insisting that it pays to be good.

Imagine how corrupt the mind of an average Nigerian Lazy youth is! So, somebody stole the money as some people claim and then keeping it would make the guy 'blessed'? What a mindset!

Blessed are you, who people persecute, and call all sorts of name for my sake, for yours is the inheritance of the kingdom.

Its the same Bible we read, but few act on the word.

its not easy what they did in this present Nigerian economy they should be applauded. it really takes a lot to return that kind of money

well, u did the right thing, but am not sure that I would have done what you did

Before nko? Dey romance poverty for there, sharp men go don do the needful.

This is Nigeria: where doing the right thing is called stupid.
This is why continuing with this mentality might make us remain a third world country.

These same people would calling him stupid would come up and say they want to be leaders here in Nigeria, we've missed here in this country.
I don't know this security guy but he has earned my respect.

Some matter person no suppose talk

Hi

Bless your soul. Do unto others as you ........

But he's actually stupid

Even the money might have been a proceed of syphoned currencies

One thing i know for sure is that it is very difficult to see a very successful individual who didnt compromise on some moral codes, there are always prices to pay for fame and wealth.

Whether stealing that Money was the right move for them to be wealthy and successful, i dont know or was it for the fear of being caught later on that made them return the funds, its God that would decide that.

But all in all, we appraise honesty when others do it, but even in minute things in our lives, are we honest?

The man is not only stupid but a fool. If I were the wife, I will stab him while he is asleep.

How can a man let a golden opportunity to escape penury and poverty slip away just like that?

Even Buhari, Tinubu, Saraki , Obasanjo and Co won't let such money escape them .

Security job and morality kee you dia

Who is the owner of that bag?
Is he presently being investigated for money laundering?
Where is EFCC?

You will know the implication of your action very soon

The reward of goodness is goodness.

omor if na me....

I'll just shout WHO HAS THIS BAG

if nobody answer I'll just resign and go and enjoy me retirement

I can't coman kill maself for honesty and integrity

he did the right thing, to the guy above God doesn't give people opportunity to steal, from comments here its appalling the level of dishonesty in this country, someone did something right people called him stupid, if he had taken the money and was caught its still this people that will call him thief, love of money, greediness and selfishness is inborn in most people. I fear the people of this world

MYND44ISANIDIOT:
That is because you are stupid. The most foolish and idiotic stupid.

God gave you an opportunity to change your life. But poverty does not want to leave you alone.

Foolish man continue in your poverty.

Even as you returned the bag, heaven is not still sure for you.

Mr integrity, i hope you enjoy your suffering while it lasts.

Na person talk like this

I can only imagine how those two little voices were fighting themselves when he saw the bag #WorldWar3. Kudos guy, it was not an easy something.

That's most Nigerian's mindset for you!

The irony part of it all is that they'd be accusing politicians of being corrupt but many of them will do worse than the present politicians if they find themselves in that position!



Mr Daniel, don't mind them, you've done the right thing, it's because of your type that we still have hope in this country!

keep doing good, it doesn't give you money but it pays, and that is REST OF MIND....the illegal people we have in this country are always restless and fcked up



so you won

People like you which I believe constitute 80% of Nigeria citizens are the reason why Nigeria will never move forward from its current state. You are no different from the corrupt politicians we have today.
I pity for our future. So sad.

Journalists: What do you have to say about that guy?
Ghetto Honourable: I think he didn't return all the money in the bag he found, he kept some for TP to work.
