Found this inspiring story of this Nigerian
police officer, Edward Eze Onoriode who
returned a woman’s purse with ATM cards
containing N200m and a necklace worth
N1.8 million.
Read the amazing story as shared by him on
his Facebook wall below…
“I was at Ikeja shopping mall two days ago on
duty where I recovered a missing purse at
the parking lot. The purse contained; some
cash both local and foreign currencies,
recharge cards worth about N2000, nine ATM
cards, complementary cards, valuable
documents, international passport,
international and local drivers license,
national ID card, voters card and a gold
necklace.
I took the missing purse to the security office
where all lost but found items are being kept
for the owners to claim should in case the
owners lodge a formal complaint that their
items at the mall went missing for possibly
claim after identification. At the security
office where we went through all the items
inside the purse for record purpose, one of
the security men told me point blank that if
he’s the one that recovered the missing
purse, he’d remove the money, gold necklace
and recharge card before bringing the purse
to the office for record purpose.
I wasn’t disappointed with his misguided
speech because that’s the normal character
of most Nigerians when they recover a
missing item. Somehow, I decide to trace the
owner of the purse via her complimentary
card and put a call across to her. Open
receiving the call, she screamed at the
background jubilating that her missing purse
has been recovered. She drove straight to
the mall, tracing me through my mobile
number I used in calling her.
When we met, she didn’t mind we were in
public, she gave me a warm hug and
thanked me and prayed for me. I took her to
the office where the purse was kept. She
checked her purse and discovered that
nothing was missing. She was astonished.
She asked me again if I was the one that saw
the item and I said yes. She told me that she
was already in the bank filling forms to block
her ATM cards. She said in those ATM cards,
she have over N200m in there and the
necklace in the purse is valued at N1.8m.
She also said, I just removed a heavy burden
from her neck because life would have been
miserable for her missing her international
passport, international and local drivers
licence including other documents. She kept
thanking me and almost knelling down. She
was awed and she told me that she least
expected a Police officer to recover a missing
item containing cash and still return that
missing item intact without removing a dime
out of it mostly in this harsh economy. She
kept staring at me like am a God.
To cut the long story short, she gave me
some cash which I rejected. I told her am
doing my job and taking money from her for
recovering her missing purse is wrong on my
part. I also made her to understand that we
can become friends and maybe in the future
she can appreciate my nice gesture to her
but I won’t take anything from her for doing
my job at the moment. She became
speechless and asked me which church am i
attending?
I smiled and told her “am irreligious. In fact,
am a freethinker” that’s the exact words I
told her. She stood their for minutes without
knowing the next word to say. Anyway, we
are now friends and she just introduced me
to her husband this morning on phone. Her
husband was so excited and has invited me
and my family to join them on a dinner in any
of my off days. Is good to do the right thing
not because of any reward that comes with it
but because its the right thing to do. Good
Evening
