Two South Africans are praised for their loyalty after paying their bill. According to a social media post shared by Vicky Tioluwani on Twitter, she says she thought her brother had paid the bill but he hadn’t.
The stunning lady says they decided to head back to the restaurant and honour their commitment a day later. The post has mostly received positive reactions from her social media followers and Briefly News takes a look at the comments. Vicky wrote on her page:
“Me and my brothers left Rocco Mamas without paying last night because my brother is the one who ordered and had the slip, so in my head, I thought he paid already. He only told me today that he thought I paid, much as I thought he paid. We went back today to pay that bill.”
