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. http://saharareporters.com/2018/08/23/i-was-mocked-and-tagged-stupid-says-airport-security-who-returned-bag-containing-huge 33 Likes 5 Shares |

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! 57 Likes 6 Shares

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. 41 Likes 3 Shares |

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? 14 Likes |

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?

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 keep enjoying your suffering with your 10k salary while it lasts. Foolish man poverty kill you there. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

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! 9 Likes 1 Share |
