Unemployed Presbyterian returns over GHc100,000, other items found in a car

Even though financial times are undoubtedly more difficult than they ever were, an unemployed man did not look the other way but showed what a kind and generous person he is.

Dela Anim, speaking on Adom FM said that he discovered more than GH100,000 in a polythene bag on the back seat of the taxi he got into.

Dela informed the host that he had changed the bag while en route to Abossey-Okai, also in Accra, to complete a task.

“I live at Nungua and I had to come to Labadi. From there, I was going to visit someone at Abossey-Okai. So, I took a car to Nima Mobil to take care of something. From there, I picked another taxi towards Abossey-Okai. But upon getting to Silvercup (Kokomlemle), I saw that there was a blue-black polythene bag there. I opened it and realised there was money in it.

“Initially, I wanted to give it to the driver, but I wasn’t sure about that driver whether he would safely deliver it, so, I thought it wise to come here myself… I even got here before we counted it. When I found it, I didn’t touch it. So, I came to the reception and the lady helped me count,” he said.

“I owned a transport business but it has collapsed so I’m unemployed and depend on the benevolence of my family to survive but growing up as a Christian and Presbyterian, my parents taught me not to take what is not mine and that has guided my siblings and I throughout life,” He said.

A name, Esther Sackey, was written on an ID card that was discovered among the items, and the station is now searching for anyone who might be this person.
