Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc, nahco aviance, has given a staff of the company, Mr Auwal Dankode, who found and returned the sum of $10,000 while cleaning an aircraft in Kano, a cash reward.

Dankode, who was assigned alongside other colleagues, to clean the MS 878 operated by EgyptAir, found the money left behind by the passenger on seat no 25H and promptly turned the money over to the airline’s station manager.

The Group Managing Director of the company, Mr Indranil Gupta, commended Dankode for being a true NAHCO ambassador, noting that he has put into use the training he received in the company.

Announcing a handsome cash reward, instant promotion and appointment as NAHCO brand ambassador in Lagos, Gupta said: “We are truly proud of the exemplary character exhibited by Auwal. He is a true NAHCO ambassador and an embodiment of what NAHCO stands for, honesty, integrity, diligence and hard work. We celebrate your being and we want this to be just the beginning.

“Let the values which have been instilled by your family, guide you and groom you into an ideal leader which everyone will be proud of. We urge you to continue working the same with very high integrity, diligently and continue being a good NAHCO ambassador.”

Also speaking at the occasion, Chief Financial Officer of NAHCO, Mr Adeoye Emiloju, said: “The integrity you’ve displayed is not something that anyone can pretend to have. You’ve shown that it is something that is innate to you.”

The Chief Operating Officer, Mr Didier Steullet also encouraged Dankode to stay on the good path.

Steullet advised: “What you have done is very good. You’re the example not only of the week, but probably of the year. My only recommendation is that please keep going on the same way. Remain yourself and don’t get carried away with the adulation that you are receiving on social media. You need to remain grounded and make a difference in the world. Stay on the nice side of the ‘force’ and your life will be good.”

Group Executive Director, Dr Sola Obabori, on his part, added: “You’ve become a poster boy of NAHCO not only in Nigeria but all over the world because the internet makes things global. You have done something that makes us proud. In today’s Nigeria, where the value of dollars is so very high, by returning so many of them, you’ve done something commendable. For you to have seen something as valuable, and give it up, it shows that you’re a man who has purity of heart. This is very commendable and appreciated. Every well-meaning Nigerian will appreciate what you have done.”

Expressing his appreciation, Dankode said: “No one in my area has ever worked at the airport. I am very grateful to NAHCO for the training they gave us and also for the opportunity to work and earn a decent living. I am greatly thankful of the NAHCO Management for the honour and recognition of my effort.”

As brand ambassador, Dankode would grace all NAHCO major events anywhere in the country, promote its brand and have the chance to travel and interact with top officials and stakeholders of the company.
