NAHCO Names Kano Airport Cleaner Ambassador after Returning $10,000 He Found At Kano Airport
Auwal Ahmad Dankode works as a cleaner with the Nigerian Aviation Handling Company (NAHCO). Despite discharging his duties efficiently, with loyalty and punctuality, he remained an auxiliary staff, working as a “contract cleaner” for more than six years.
Last week, however, his show of honesty earned him a permanent appointment and he was crowned Brand Ambassador of NAHCO. The magic? He returned a missing sum of $10,000 to the owner.
Juxtaposing the biting economy situation with a man who had only N3,800 in his bank account stumbling on a bundle of missing $10,000 and returning same to the owner, Dankode became a hero of honesty and forthrightness after defeating the monster of temptation.
The aircraft, Egypt Air, from which he found the said sum, had touched down at 1:30pm. At about 2:00pm, the passengers alighted the aircraft and 10 cleaners were asked to go in and clean the 120-passenger airliner for another trip back to Cairo. Twenty-eight-year-old Dankode was one of the cleaners.
