When Salisu reached his house, he informed his mother and father about the money somebody had left inside his tricycle, his father quickly informed his senior brother, and they all directed him that he must find a way to return the money to the owner

However, a source close to the family revealed that Salisu’s father is an old man, and the family faced economic hardship when Salisu discovered this huge amount of money.

In the desperate move, for Salisu to return the money to the owner, an announcement was made over the radio, that a Chadian man had forgotten a huge amount of money inside a tricycle, and that whoever found the money should call the number dictated.

Salisu, after hearing the announcement over the radio, made a call to the Chadian man.

Salisu told him that since he had already heard over the radio, the best place to meet would be the very radio station and there and then Salisu went to the radio station and in the presence of everybody, Salisu handed the money to the head of the radio who gave the money to the Chadian man.

However, when the lawmakers learnt about the gesture and sincerity demonstrated by Salisu, they were impressed and resolved that something must be done for him( Salisu)

This then prompted the lawmakers to take the decision to compensate him, with part of the salary  as widows mite to Salisu.
