A 22-year-old commercial tricycle (Keke Napep) driver, Auwalu Salisu who returned missing ₦15 million to its owner in Kano has been offered four women to marry.
Salisu became the talk of the town after he found N15m, including some CFA currency, and returned it to the owner who is from the Republic of Chad.
Speaking to Arewa Radio in Kano, the good Samaritan said he did not notice that his passenger had forgotten the money until he reached home, adding that after discovering the money, he informed his parents who ordered him to go and look for the owner.
Since that time, the young man has been getting recognition from government officials, groups and individuals and received several gifts, including a new tricycle from a philanthropist.
However, while joining the rest of the people to offer their donation, the matchmaking group promised four women for him to marry to be selected from 10 women.
Speaking on Freedom Radio, Kano, the Chairman of the association, Alhaji Mukhtar Inuwa Yakasai, said that among the ladies, two were his daughters.
Yakasai noted that the integrity, honesty and trust displayed by the young man qualified him for the honour.
He said, “The boy has shown the good character of our Noble Prophet, Muhammad (SAW). He is indeed trustworthy. That is why we have decided to honour him with these gifts.
“There are 10 women for him to select four. Two of them are my daughters.”
