A Facebook user, Precious Ezeh has narrated the shocking
story of how a student of Yaba College of Technology, Yaba, Lagos picked his
IPhone 5 and returned it to him. Julia Blaise Blog (JBB) reports that the man,
who is said to be a devout Muslim did not ask for money in return, but also
rejected a tip given to him. Read the story below…
HIS NAME IS DOTUN AND HE IS A MUSLIM!!!
This morning I asked you guys a question about Christianity
and Islam and this was why I asked.
Yesterday evening I got home to discover that my IPhone 5
was missing and I couldn't place a finger to where it was actually I misplaced
it at.
I started calling the number, I called and called and called
and no one was picking, so, I decided to call everyone I had contact with that
yesterday and no one had an idea where the phone was or who took the phone.
So, I decided to take things the way they are, believing
that since I have another IPhone, a newer version of the one that got missing
and again, the fact that my numbers are all saved on the newer phone, I moved
on as I woke this morning.
Now, at about 10:15am when I was washing my car outside the
house, I got a call from someone who asked me to call him back and immediately
I did, the guy told me he saw missed calls from my MTN line and wanted to know
who I was, because according to him, as he couldn't operate the phone, he
removed the sim, put it in his own phone to enable him pick calls to trace who
the owner of the phone was.
So, I called back, told him how my phone went missing and he
asked me to come collect it from him.
Infact, I was SHOCKED.
He told me that as he was heading to the MOSQUE this early
morning for the days fasting, he saw the phone facing down, dirty and trampled
upon, he picked the phone, removed the jacket, cleaned it up and decided to
reach whoever the owner is.
When I got to the place later this evening, called him and
he brought my phone and handed it over to me.
I gave this young man who is a student of Yaba College of
Technology, Building Technology Department some money in appreciation of what
he did and he vehemently refused to accept and all my pleas fell on deaf ears.
He is a Muslim and on fasting.
So I ask again as a Christian that I am, HOW MANY CHRISTIANS
WOULD PICK AN IPHONE 5 AND RETURN THE PHONE TO THE OWNER WITHOUT COLLECTING ANY
FORM OF APPRECIATION IN RETURN??
An iPhone 5 at this time??
I mean, this is Dotun, the young man who saw my phone,
picked it and returned it to me in this our LAGOS.
He is A ROLE MODEL of what integrity and dignity should be
amongst young people like us.
