Josephine Agwu who returned N12million to the owner at the Muritala
Mohammed Int Airport, Lagos in 2015 has lamented on television after
being neglected.
Josephine, an airport cleaner, found the huge sum in the toilet and
instead of her to run away with the money, she decided to pass it over
to the airport management.
This turn of event made Josephine gain popularity in Nigeria.
Back in 2014, Ms. Josephine Agwu found N12 million inside the
airport toilet and returned it. She was praised and received cash gifts
for the commendable act. Subsequently, she also found N10 million, N8
million, and N7 million forgotten by travellers in the airport, and each
time, she returned the suitcase containing the money over to the
authorities.
In a recent interview with Legit TV, Ms Agwu complained about the
level of poverty in Nigeria. She also pointed out that in other
countries, she would have been better rewarded for what she did, but
that isn’t the case in Nigeria.
She said:
"As you see me, I’m a person people know the whole world today. But see.
Nobody in Nigeria do what I did.
I return money four times in Nigeria. I’m a cleaner, the year
2014 in Murtala Muhammed, return 12 million, return 10 million, return 8
million, return 7 million.
But if na other countries, I’ll be an ambassador to telling
youths that honest is paying. But now see. They close it. Nobody to
remember it."
