Cleaner who returned $10,000 gets promotion

The Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (NAHCO Aviance) has rewarded a staff member of the company, Mr. Auwal Dankode, who found and returned $10,000 while cleaning an aircraft in Kano.

This is just as the man who was hosted at the headquarters of the company at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) in Lagos declared that no one in his area had ever worked at the airport.

He expressed his great appreciation of the management of NAHCO for giving him the opportunity.

Dankode was assigned alongside other colleagues, to clean the MS 878 operated by Egypt Air, when he found the money left behind by the passenger on seat No 25H.

He promptly turned the money over to the airline’s station manager.

The Group Managing Director/CEO of the Company, Mr. Indranil Gupta, while commending Dankode for being a true NAHCO ambassador who has put into use the training he received, announced the handsome cash reward, instant promotion and appointment as NAHCO brand ambassador, a statement from the company said.

Also speaking at the occasion, the Chief Financial Officer of NAHCO, Mr. Adeoye Emiloju, commended Dankode on the show of high integrity.

The COO, Mr. Didier Steullet, also encouraged Dankode to stay on the good path.

Group Executive Director, Dr. Sola Obabori added, “You’ve become a poster boy of NAHCO not only in Nigeria but all over the world because the internet makes things global.”

Dankode invited some of his relatives to the ceremony including, Jafar Maimako, Sadam Tanko, Ibrahim Mu’azu and Yusuf Mohammed.

As brand ambassador, Auwal Dankode would grace all NAHCO major events anywhere in the country, promote its brand and have the chance to travel and interact with top officials and stakeholders of the company.

Meanwhile, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in last year’s elections, Mr Peter Obi has commended Malam Dankode for returning $10,000 found while cleaning an aircraft at Malam Aminu Kano International Airport.

Obi on Sunday on his X handle while calling for more commendations for Dankode for his act of integrity and honesty, said that he stands out amidst Nigeria’s challenging economic conditions, thus the importance of celebrating such exemplary character as a beacon of hope for a new Nigeria.
