A young man, Emmanuel Tuloe, who went viral many days for returning the $50,000 he saw on the highway has been in the media since his lovely act.



According to an earlier report, after he had picked the bag containing the money, he soon returned it to the owner following an announcement on the radio.

Many people have since attacked his rare show of honesty, with some saying that that he may never be rich in his life again.


This condemnation came even as the owner of the money rewarded him with the sum of $1500 (N616,350). To crown it all, the young man soon met the president of his country, George Weah.



During the meeting, the Liberian president offered him a scholarship for any university of his choice to the master's level. He was also promised the one of the highest honours in Liberia.
