Nigerian Student Gets Cash Reward Of N340k for Returning Missing Phone he Found at Event

A young Nigerian student, Philemon Igbokwe, has been rewarded with N340,000 after returning a new Android phone he found at an event in Port Harcourt, the Rivers state capital.

The disclosure was made by the chairman of the occasion, Emma Okah, who shared a photo of himself and the boy on Facebook.

According to Emma, the owner of the phone forgot it in the restroom.

The cash reward was contributed by Emma and three other guests who were impressed with what the boy did.

Emma's post on Facebook read in part:

HONEST BOY RETURNS MISSING PHONE

The boy with me in this photograph is Master Philemon Igbokwe. He is a student of Federal Government College, Rumuokoro, PH, Rivers State. He has no phone, even the cheapest.

Yesterday, I chaired the wedding event of Mr. Victor Emma Woke from Elele Town and his wife Joy from Eleme at Exquisite Event Centre, (Eliozu), G.U. Ake Road, PH.

"I announced a cash reward of N50,000. while Hon Josiah Olu did N50,000 and Co-Chairman Dr John Bosco - $500. By this, Philemon Igbokwe will go home with N340,000 for returning a phone which if sold as a stolen item, would not make N40,000.

I will appreciate any effort to reach him or his parents to enable us redeem our pledge. "I am proud to Congratulate Philemon and his parents for the example he has shown that there are still young ones with integrity in our country. I pray God to uphold Philemon and his family in greatness, honour and success in life."
