AUWAL Ahmed Dankode, an employee of Nigeria Aviation Handling Company (NAHCO) with station at Malam Aminu Kano International Airport in Kano, reportedly discovered Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) – approximately Sixteen Million Naira (N16,000,000.00) – while cleaning an aircraft.
Upon discovering the money, Auwal immediately reported it to the airline company’s manager to initiate the search for the rightful owner.
Zagazola Makama, a user on the X platform (formerly Twitter), shared the information on Wednesday that after Dankode found the cash, he immediately reported it to the airline company’s manager, initiating a search for the rightful owner. His prompt action has earned him widespread praise and admiration.
Auwal, originally from Kode in Kano State, is known for his strong fear of God and honesty.
Meanwhile, the National Orientation Agency (NOA) has said that such act of unwavering integrity and selflessness highlights the importance of honesty and accountability in the workplace — qualities, the organisation say, define the true Nigerian spirit.
“The National Orientation Agency is proud to recognize Auwal Ahmed Dankode as the “Nigerian of the Week!”, the organisation posted on its Facebook platform.
