"I've returned 500k mistakenly sent by a client. She didn't even know. I had to call to notify her notice. Most people wouldn't put integrity over all. She later gave me half of it."

"Omo this guy is a very good guy. In this hardship and poverty. Chai this guy is 1 in a billion not million. May God bless him. Am not sure I can do this."
