Nigerian Grandma In The US Returns $36,000 She Found In Couch She Got Online by goldcoinhub(op): 9:15am On Jun 08, 2022
A Nigerian grandma based in California, United States of America who received a couch from a stranger online for free has returned te sum of $36,000 she found inside the couch.

Vicky Umodu, a resident of San Bernardino County, said she was looking through Craigslist to purchase furniture for her new home when she found some pieces that someone was giving away for free.

“I said, ‘Maybe it’s a gimmick.’ I said, ‘Let me call them,'” Umodu said to herself

The woman later learned the family was giving away the furniture due to the recent passing of a loved one, according to the report.

“I just moved in, and I don’t have anything in my house. I was so excited, so we picked it up and brought it in,” Umodu added

Stashed underneath the cushion was $36,000 in cash, Umodu revealed to reporters.

The California woman notified the family, offering to return the sum, who then rewarded her generosity.

The family said they were not sure why so much cash was in the couch and they later discovered hundreds of dollars stashed away in their home, per the report.

Is this not supposed to make headline all over the world that at least there are trust worthy people in Nigeria?...
Assuming it was a scam, BBC, Fox news and other news outlet would have carried it Just to tarnish the image of the country... Look at how this was downplayed.. even their own citizens cannot do what the grandmother did..

Grandma, your integrity is second to none..,. Thank you for showing them that some Nigerians were well raised smiley

Good idea. The money might belong to some drug lord or gangsta.

One good turn deserves another.

She was given the couch for free and she found a huge amount of money stashed in it. But she thought it wise to return it.

Integrity and honesty pay!

Commendable!

With integrity, you can never go wrong in the long run.

Honesty and integrity is still part of us. Thank God for this wonderful news but nobody will take notice. It's Hushpuppi and their like that will dominate international stereotype of a Nigerian.
