A cleaner on N30,000 monthly salary, Faiza Abdulkadir, has returned N4.8 million credited to her bank account by mistake in Maiduguri, Borno State capital.
Speaking to newsmen in Maiduguri, Faiza said she decided to return the money due to the fear of God.
“The money does not belong to me. I returned it to have a peace of mind, and avoid God’s punishment on the day of judgement,” she said. 
Faiza revealed that she spent three days completing the bank process before she finally sent back the money to the owner.
“I was restless throughout these three days. In fact, I couldn’t eat well throughout the process, until the day I finally transferred the money to the owner,” she told News Central during an interview.
Banks officials and residents in her area described Faiza as a very honest woman that survived on N30,000 salary from a health care center work.
“We were not surprised, because of her discipline and the way she is training her children. She has very good values and lives a modest life with her five children,” one of her neighbors said.
One of the bank staff said the exceptional qualities displayed by Faiza has surprised many people in the bank.
“Despite her condition, this woman chooses to fear God and do the right thing.
“I witnessed a case in this bank when money was mistakenly transferred into a customer’s account, he withdrew the money and spent it.
“He put the bank staff in serious trouble. Police were involved in the case but still the money has not been recovered,” he said.
