In Truth, We Still Have Some Good Nigerians Around. by EmmyDe25(m): 6:01pm On Jan 15, 2016 |
Amidst the numerous challenges that bedeviled this nation. I find it rather surprising that some people still chose to be nice. This might look like a non-story to some people though, but I was somewhat blown apart by this unexpected act of good gesture by a good Samaritan; such that i was moved to share. So, I left my office for home yesterday sometimes around 7pm (earliest I’ve closed in 2 weeks), entered a keke from GRA to Ikeja, and then to Ogba. Got to Ogba bus stop, and discovered the traffic was hellish so I decided to take a bike down home. Got home, hopped off the bike and brought out the N100 I had in my pocket to pay the bike man as i entered my gate. Meanwhile, One of my neighborhood friends was just coming back from work and decided to call in; asking that I give him N50 to pay off the bike man because he wasn’t having change. I dashed into the bedroom to pick up my wallet but the wallet dramatically turned to our missing budget . Ransacked the entire house but still couldn’t find it. Eventually the bikeman had to leave. My friend stayed back for a while and decided to take his leave when he realized I was restive; as I was fixated in finding the missing wallet, couldn’t even see him off. I continued the search till around 11pm until I heard my phone ring. Picked up the phone reluctantly, and it was a man who asked if I was “Mr Emmanuel” I answered hurriedly and what followed afterward was “I found your wallet somewhere in Ogba but I’m at home now in Abule-Egba”. Let me know where I can meet you tomorrow morning so I can hand over the wallet to you. To cut the long story short, the man called at about 6:10am today, came to my street to return my Perry Ellis wallet UNTOUCHED! Offered him money as compensation for the stress but he declined. I was marveled! Didn’t know we still have some good Nigerians around…especially in Lagos! Mind you, I have close to N10,000 in the wallet, my access card to the office , 3 ATM cards, one for my salary account and other valuables. I just felt I should relay this in a public forum like this that indeed, there are still some good Nigerians around who are ready to go a million mile for their fellow countrymen at no cost. Big Sean was right after all, “One man can change the world” Cc: lalasticlala, mynd44 |
