A civil servant in Kano, Aminu Umar Kofar Mazugal, displayed exceptional honesty by returning $40,000 forgotten in a bag at the Abubakar Imam Urology Centre.
The money, left by Alhaji Ahmed Mohammed near the hospital mosque, was found by Umar during a cleaning exercise.
Mohammed returned an hour later to retrieve the bag, which Umar handed over without hesitation.
Although offered a reward, Umar declined and instead earned recognition, with his name submitted to the Kano State Hospitals Management Board for commendation.
