The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) is considering a reward plan for one of its personnel, Aircraftman (ACM) Bashir Umar, who found and returned the sum of 37,000 Euros to Alhaji Ahmad, the owner of the lost money.

Naija News understands that Alhaji Ahmad had misplaced his funds at the Hajj Camp Market in Kano on Tuesday 16 July.

ACM Bashir, who is a member of the NAF Mobile Air Defence Team (#MADT) deployed for airport security duties, while on routine patrol with some of his colleagues, found the money in a parcel.

Naija News understands that there was a phone number on the parcel which he called and eventually handed over the package to the owner.

In a deliberate attempt to compensate the AirForce officer, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, has directed the Chief of Administration at the Headquarters NAF, Air Vice Marshal Kingsley Lar, to immediately come up with modalities to reward the Umar so as to encourage others.
