Lagos Airport Driver Who Returned Bag Containing $20,000, To Passenger Gets Rewarded

An airport driver, Emmanuel Eluu, who returned a bag containing local and foreign currencies, jewellery and other valuables has been rewarded for his honesty.

Bi-Courtney Aviation Services Limited (BASL), operators of the Murtala Muhammed Airport Terminal Two (MMA2), rewarded the driver for returning the bag.

Eluu had returned a bag containing local and foreign currencies, jewellery and other valuables forgotten by a passenger.

“Inside the bag were the sum of $20,000 in two bundles, the sum of N500,000 in five bundles, nine wristwatches in black and yellow pouches, a bead in a yellow bag, one eyeglass in a yellow bag, pieces of jewellery in two golden purses, four bank cheques, eye drop, envelopes of different sizes, a bundle of the business cards belonging to the owner of the bag (names withheld), an identification card and a Samsung Note 20 Ultra.”

On Wednesday, the company’s HR head, Ola Azeez, presented a cash reward and letter of commendation to Mr Eluu at the Lagos Airport office.

The bag belonged to a prominent Nigerian who boarded an Arik Air flight from MMA2 to Port Harcourt on August 30.

According to BASL, the bag has been returned to the owner.
