Another kind Nigerian man

Meanwhile, Briefly News earlier reported that a Nigerian man, Obiefoh Sunday, who is a housekeeper at the Lagos Continental Hotel, showed true honesty in his work.

His boss, Muhammad Ashraf, on his LinkedIn page wrote about how the young man found some wads of US dollars in one of the rooms he went to clean after the guest had checked out.

Immediately he saw the money, the cleaner alerted the hotel management of the situation and the money was quickly deposited into the organisation's lost and found account.
