“She found the following valuable items in the toilet: 2,000 dollars,  140 Canadian dollars, eight pieces of coins, N21,850, two international passports, four ATM cards, four bus cards and baggage claim tags.

“The owner, an employee of Nigerian Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC), Imade Uhunwagho, has since collected his valuables.”

Miss Ishaya, who was promoted from being a janitor to a supervisor, thanked the wife of the President for recognising her action, adding that the award would encourage her to do more.
