"So this my bolt friend drove someone to the aiport from sunny ville Abuja and his fees was around 4,000 isshhnaira. The guy now sent him 4000. The problem is instead of 4,000 he mistakenly sent him 400,000 naira.
"The bolt driver has called the man and refunded him his balance of 396,000. Long and short of the story is that there are still good people in Nigeria. The money may look small but with the present situation of things in the country, it wouldn't have taken him anything to run away with the money.
"Bolt should have a special reward for such drivers coz they represent them well."

The receipts of the first and second transactions were also shared on Instagram.

Emeka said the phone fell from his pocket when he boarded the taxi after the function he attended. He said he got worried all night long after realising that he had lost his phone.
