Abba Yusuf offers appointment to casual staff who returned missing $16k

 


Abba Yusuf, governor of Kano, has offered permanent appointment to a casual staff of the state pilgrims welfare board who returned missing $16,000 during the last hajj exercise.

 

Yusuf made the announcement while receiving the report of the Kano state pilgrims welfare board for the 2023 hajj operation.

 

He said the casual staff identified as Dayyabu Haladu aka Dan Gezawa, was also rewarded with a gift of N1 million and an automatic slot to embark on the forthcoming hajj exercise.

 

The governor said the action of the casual staff shows contentment, adding that he is an “excellent character worthy of emulation by all and sundry”.

 

 “As a casual staff whose allowance is nothing to take home about, this gentleman managed to return the lost money worth over N15 million,” he said.

 

“It shows how this person has a fear of Allah and he deserves to be celebrated.”

 

He urged residents to uphold the reputation of the state by exhibiting discipline and contentment in order to live a happy life.

 

On his part, the casual staff said he returned the money to the state pilgrims board because of the fear of Allah.

 

He said it was improper to take what did not belong to him regardless of the economic hardship.

 

He thanked the governor for the gifts and gestures extended to him, adding that it was the best moment of his life.

 

The governor also promised to honour a tricyclist who returned a missing N16 million sum.

 

In July, the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) said a Nigerian pilgrim identified as Aishatu Nahuce returned a missing $8,000 to the owner in Saudi Arabia.
