A Nigerian woman, Vicky Umodu, residing in San Bernardino, California, returned a whopping sum of N14.9 million ($37,500) she found hidden in chairs that were given to her for free.
The remarkable incident occurred when she recently moved into a new home and was in search of furniture on Craigslist.
The furniture, belonging to a family looking to part with belongings of a late relative, was offered to Vicky Umodu without any cost.
Little did she know that the ordinary chairs would harbour an unexpected treasure. Upon delivery, as she inspected the newly acquired furniture, Vicky Umodu stumbled upon a significant amount of cash discreetly kept in one of the chairs.
Overwhelmed with the discovery, Vicky Umodu said;
“I just moved in, and I don’t have anything in my house. I was so excited, so we picked it up and brought it in. ‘I was just telling my son, ‘Come, come, come!’ I was screaming, ‘This is money! I need to call the guy!’”
Determined to do the right thing, Vicky Umodu promptly contacted the family who had provided her with the chairs.
Grateful for her honesty, the family expressed their appreciation for Vicky Umodu’s integrity in returning the substantial sum of money.
“God has been kind to me and my children. They’re all alive and well. I have three beautiful grandchildren, so what can I ever ask from God?.“ the woman said.
After returning the money, the family reciprocated Vicky Umodu’s honesty by gifting her a sum of N900,000 ($2,250).
