Returned $70,000: Staff of Eko Hotel, Ngozi Mary Deserves a National Honour- Peter Obi
A staff of Eko Hotel in Lagos, Ngozi Mary who is currently trending for returning a sum of $70,000 misplaced by one of its customers has caught the attention of Peter Obi.
Mr. Peter Obi, the Labour Party Presidential candidate in the 2023 general election has reacted to the good deed of Mary saying she deserves both a national award and recognition.
Obi, tweeted on Saturday describing her act as heartwarming despite the current hardship and the prevailing moral decadence in the nation.
“It is heartwarming and reassuring that despite the hardship in the country and the prevailing moral decadence in society, a staff of Eko Hotel and Suites, Kekwaaru Ngozi Mary, was reported to have returned a misplaced sum of $70,000 to a customer of the hotel in Lagos.
” When will Nigeria start celebrating the likes of Miss Ngozi Mary for her honesty and integrity, Teacher Akeem Badru, for winning the 2023 Cambridge Dedicated Teacher Award, and many others like them?
While hoping to celebrate more honorable feats as this in the new Nigeria, the former Anambra State governor, however, expressed that it is the likes of Mary that deserve a national award instead of celebrating those who have impacted negatively on the nation.
“These are the people who deserve to be given national honours and awards and recognition, instead of celebrating those who have impacted our nation negatively. In the New Nigeria that we desire, these are the kind of people that will be celebrated. A New Nigeria is POssible.”He added.
