Renowned music superstar, David Adeleke, better known as Davido, has made a generous pledge of $10,000 to an honest worker at Eko Hotel and Suites in Lagos. The worker, Kekwaaru Ngozi Mary, made headlines after she returned a misplaced sum of $70,000 (over ₦55 million) to a customer at the hotel.
Davido, known for his philanthropic gestures, took to his verified Twitter account on Sunday to commend and reward the exemplary act. He wrote, “Find her for me… I donate $10k.”
Ngozi Mary’s honesty has won her widespread praise on social media, where many Nigerians have lauded her for displaying such integrity in the face of hardship and moral decadence in society.
Joining in the commendation, Mr Peter Obi of the Labour Party LP issued a statement today celebrating Ngozi Mary’s actions and expressing admiration for her selflessness. Obi also recommended her for national honour, acknowledging her as a shining example of virtue in the country.
The gesture from Davido further exemplifies the impact of acts of integrity and kindness, encouraging others to do the same in their communities. Ngozi Mary’s story serves as an inspiring reminder of the power of honesty and ethical behaviour in today’s society.
