"I was at Ikeja shopping mall two days ago on duty where I recovered a missing purse at the parking lot. The purse contained; some cash both local and foreign currencies, recharge cards worth about N2000, nine ATM cards, complementary cards, valuable documents, international passport, international and local drivers license, national ID card, voters card and a gold necklace.
I took the missing purse to the security office where all lost but found items are being kept for the owners to claim should in case the owners lodge a formal complaint that their items at the mall went missing for possibly claim after identification. At the security office where we went through all the items inside the purse for record purpose, one of the security men told me point blank that if he's the one that recovered the missing purse, he'd remove the money, gold necklace and recharge card before bringing the purse to the office for record purpose. I wasn't disappointed with his misguided speech because that's the normal character of most Nigerians when they recover a missing item. Somehow, I decide to trace the owner of the purse via her complimentary card and put a call across to her. Open receiving the call, she screamed at the background jubilating that her missing purse has been recovered. She drove straight to the mall, tracing me through my mobile number I used in calling her. When we met, she didn't mind we were in public, she gave me a warm hug and thanked me and prayed for me. I took her to the office where the purse was kept. She checked her purse and discovered that nothing was missing. She was astonished. She asked me again if I was the one that saw the item and I said yes. She told me that she was already in the bank filling forms to block her ATM cards. She said in those ATM cards, she have over N200m in there and the necklace in the purse is valued at N1.8m. She also said, I just removed a heavy burden from her neck because life would have been miserable for her missing her international passport, international and local drivers licence including other documents. She kept thanking me and almost knelling down. She was awed and she told me that she least expected a Police officer to recover a missing item containing cash and still return that missing item intact without removing a dime out of it mostly in this harsh economy. She kept staring at me like am a God. To cut the long story short, she gave me some cash which I rejected. I told her am doing my job and taking money from her for recovering her missing purse is wrong on my part. I also made her to understand that we can become friends and maybe in the future she can appreciate my nice gesture to her but I won't take anything from her for doing my job at the moment. She became speechless and asked me which church am i attending? I smiled and told her "am irreligious. In fact, am a freethinker" that's the exact words I told her. She stood their for minutes without knowing the next word to say. Anyway, we are now friends and she just introduced me to her husband this morning on phone. Her husband was so excited and has invited me and my family to join them on a dinner in any of my off days. Is good to do the right thing not because of any reward that comes with it but because its the right thing to do. Good morning.

Over sharpness dey worry this guy.If he'd collected the cash she gave him,that'd have been the end of their acquaintance after she must have lavished him with "Thank Yous" profusely.Hehehe but saying they should be friends is the smartest move ever
Now his children ,great grandkids and even his ancestors have a great connection.She can never stop paying him

These are the kind of Nigerians we should celebrate. Mr. Police Officer, we join to celebrate you for this rare act of yours. I hope this does not go unnoticed by the police authorities.
Check out here for sports news
End time police man...e try
Good job bro, keep it up and God will reward you in a big way one day. im proud of you.
Hmm,speechless
OMG!
Dis Police officer must b wit juicy pocket and account if not he wouldn't dare dis. Biko d truth b told.
Probably better home training frm his parents and spiritual background has a lot to do abt dis.
Common on wallet dat fell frm someone pocket wit cash, ATM and other itemss in it never saw d day light.
God b bless dat we still hav sincere and truthful souls lik dis mostly a Police Officer. Dis good wil surely pay off to him, family and generations to come.
Comment frm ROYAL PRIESTHOOD (royalpriesthood007@gmail.com)
Wow!!! Very interesting. Like I always say religion doesn't define anyone. God bless him.reminds me of the book "the fruit of honesty is God's blessing".
That man is the exception.
Am I seeing well at all? Nigerian police kwa?wonders shall not cease to end.......
----JUST KEEPING IT REAL----
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! This over inspiring to me. Am moved, am touched, am totally resolved to replicate this very act put up by a Nigerian Policeman of all people if I ever find myself in his kind of situation. You'll find out that at the end of the day this act of uprightness will be worth the divine reward that comes with it. And it even bits my imagination that after meeting the woman he went ahead to reject any appreciative offer which may have been the last he would have received as it ends there, but he didn't so he should continue in this grace and await the immense results it will yield and numerous benefit it will unlock.
Awwwwwww! Heaven is awaiting u... can't wait to see my missing rib #winks#

I almost forgot the most important point on this post. He is a free Thinker and not a religious bigot.
Free thinkers rule...people think our souls are lost to salvation not knowing we are the ones who have seen the light. There is only one God!!! Christians, Muslims, buddishts, ifa worshippers, amadioha worshippers, grail message, eckankar, white garment churches etc all worship d same God!!! Religion is a man made phenomenon! Religion started as a result of fear. The ancient man was afraid of disease, death, hunger, thunder and lightening. Any time these afflictions befell him he would think it was that person causing the thunder that sent it. The smart individuals among them told man that he was. Able to communicate with the person sending the thunder and that was how religion started. The person helping you to communicate with the thunder is your present day pastor or imam or priest. If you are still in doubt why is it that people turn to God most when they are troubled or worried? This is because religion started due to fear. And it has been used to cause division amognst mankind. Ask yourself this question before you sleep...why should another man tell me what to do concerning my relationship with my creator when my creator made me in his own image hence I am a god in my own rights. the bible, the Koran and any other religious books were written BY MEN not God #Gospel Truth #free thinker all the way
Atleast that is one good tin wen u are igbo guy but born n breed else where, imagine a full blooded igbo dude who could set his eyez on this huge amount of money and not doin anything to take it home, even if na to kill person. Well done eze, but that doesn't make u a good person ooo, u were only doin Wat is right Jare.

The purse must be very big if it contains an ATM. lol
This warms my heart...."I'm irreligious...in fact I'm a freethinker". Kudos for staying true to yourself brother. The universe will reward you immensely! Waiting for the "religious" zealots to come and condemn him to hell.
hmmmm,,,,,,Good samaritan
It's so obvious dt the woman is rich dey shud just help the police man...
God Richly Bless You.

Waoow u rilly make us to b proud of nigeria police again i never knew dt we still hv good p'pl in d police again oo may God bless u & ur generations to come kudos bro
Hello Linda, am not trying to throw shade here but, it would be nice if attention is paid to the construction of grammar when stories are posted. This is to ensure easy read. For instance this caption says "purse containing ATM with N200m". . . . was there an automated teller machine (ATM) containing N200m in the said purse? I so love you and your blog so, not in anyway throwing shade.
All I can say is wow! I honestly cant say I would do the same thing. This is inspiring
I can hear his colleagues biting their lips and calling him Olodo. He is an Icon!!
Wow God still has men even in the Nigerian police,I can't believe this,I will hardly trust a Nigerian police,forgive me but most of them don't mean well.

hmmm... For naija and a police? Am speechless... Linda i dont know what to say... Double your hustle.
Story for the Gods.
Nice of him
wow coming from a police officer, it means there is hope.
Nigeria Police please find another way of rebranding. Sending in sponsored post or non-sponsored posts would in no way change the mindset of citizens about the Police.
The citizens are not blind and if they are they will hear good reports about the Nigeria Police when and if they change positively.
It's really good to be good sometimes.
Good people still exist!
OKORO UPGRADED
aaaw. feel like crying. this man is a taste
I'm touch,
LO BA TAN. HE HAS SAID IT ALL, NOTHING AGAIN TO ADD. "BECAUSE IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO"
God bless you. All the useless men in the police force take note!!!!
The beginning of good things to come. You made the right decision. God bless your good heart.

Linda, this 'how-it-should-be' life story has made my day! Thumbs up for the Police officer! He is a good example not only to his colleagues in the Police Force but indeed, all Nigerians.
Yes, I know you for a long time. i am not surprise. I know that that is your attribute. No one can take that from you. Just continue to your own thing in your own way. Religion is not the fact in issue. Just be good and lets know you to be a good person
Nice. It's good to be good. Your reward shall surely come
i thank for the spirit that enter inside him that makes me chose to return it back to the rightful owner.and at the same time i thank God for the woman too that God did not to lose all in time like this. the guys have make us proud as a Nigerian. wonderful decision when he want to be friend to the family. that would be blessing for ever.
That's nice. God will bless him.
Igbo kwenu. Go to the east and check how the Nigerian police work there. They don't take bribe
BUT SERIOUSLY, DID HE HAVE HER PIN TO ACCESS THE MONEY VIA ATM? AND WHATS THE POINT OF ANNOUNCING THAT SHE HAD ACCESS TO SUCH MONEY VIA ATM. TMI.
There are good officers amongst the corrupt ones....
Exactly the kind of Police Officers you and I signed to be while in training at Ikeja. I'm glad you are still toeing that lane even if I had left. I'm so proud of u, Ezekiel. Love from your college bestie, Benjamin.
God bless him Amen.
Awww! So heart warming. If every body can be like him in this country, our country will change 4 good walahi. God will continue to bless u mr police, u deserve promotion @ work. But unfortunately nigeria hardly do such.
wow! Wow!.. knew him since high school, he has always been cool headed, humble and smart. Keep repping our generation. We have more conscience than those blood sucking, corrupt and greedy politcians who will see their destruction soon. Nigerian youths lets proove our leaders wrong. We can do it. I salute you Bros!
THIS IS SO INSPIRING. WAITING FOR THIS STUPID YORUBA PPLE TO SAY "AHHHHH...AHHHHH.... IBO? THEM LIKE MONEY TOO MUCH OH!". THE AIRPORT CLEANER THAT RETURNED HUGE TOKEN THEN NA YORUBA? MTCHEWW! WELDONE MY BROTHER. IT PAYS TO BE SINCERE. WELDONE ONCE AGAIN.

Inspiring...in a dwindling economy this is rare...
How can N200M be in a purse??? Is the purse a Ghana must go bag?abeg park well
Act of kindness
Nokia neva gree upgrade ur lumia since?
Make i hear word jare. Why did u have to talk about it in public if you ain't seeking for something in particular? Either you'r seeking a position in the government office or something. Can't you IDIOTS ever do good and keep shut about it? You had to tell us u didn't accept the money so peeps won't think you did it for money whereas that's why you did it. I know that trick my G.
Billion likes to ur Comment. The Greatest Scam ever sold is Religion. Religion doesn't make u a better person. U re a better person simply by ur choices and ur emparty towards ur fellow man and ur environment.
The ATM cards in the purse had access to the money. Pls read carefully before commenting.
And tomorrow they will say Igbo people are dishonest! He is one of the few honest cops in our force.
Hmmm..what type of purse contains #200m...oya naah
Me too!!!
God will continue to crown that police man's effort and will live long successfully I wish the cab man in Abuja that made away with my iphone 6+ I that dropped in his cab I bought only one month ago can come back with it...
@Stern Is that all you have to say? You stinks!
Aww God Bless U!
God bless your kind heart....
At least there;s hope for those of us that are thinking about returning home some day.
Please shut your mouth
Scammer lost their bag.
All these Nsukka people sef! Your chance to hammer, you dey claim good thing to do. The woman that returned money in Lagos airport na Nsukka woman. Na their juju all of them dey fear, no be honesty.
Oh wow! I'm speechless!
i think i concur,mmm.interesting..
lol
How re we sure u returned the purse in good faith
~D great anonymous!
#facts# am a Christian though.
Some people speak of the fruit of the spirit and i always argue that there are people who are not religious but they exhibit all the fruits of the spirit.Love,patience,humility etc.I like this man.I will emulate his character.Its a game changer.Good character changes lives that comes in contact with it.He has lit someone's lamp and his world is a tad brighter.
Nice gesture
Awww, we still have good people in Nigeria.
Pple like stern stink everywhere, how u take dey here self, ole.
Some people out of sheer kindness entertained angels, You for your part, did very well MY BROTHER. Well done!
