A Nigerian man, Muibi Sonubi, who was working as a taxi driver decades ago returned a huge sum of money he saw in his vehicle.
He did all that despite being very poor. Many years after his wonderful deed, the man still stays in his father’s old mud house.

Let's build him a house
A media personality, Oriyomi Hamzat, visited the man and talked about how our society does not value people with honesty.

People had condemned his act so much that his name “Muibi Sonubi” became an adjective in Yorubaland to describe someone who is dumb.
Oriyiomi is therefore asking Nigerians to donate towards Muibi's welfare so that the man can have a house to call his own before he dies.
Take N100,000
The media personality said he has done his part by placing the man on salary. Oriiyomi pledged to give the man the sum of N100,000 as a contribution towards his project.
The man said it is not necessary for people to send money. He added that they could give building materials. Muibi is now 88 years old.

Man gives stranger N1m
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a kind Nigerian man, Obaseki Osazekomwen Daniel, made the life of an old stranger better. Weeks ago, he had an encounter with her and gave N1 million to help her business.
In an old video, he visited the woman’s house and realised she was living in a very shabby condition that is not befitting for any human.
To help her living condition, Daniel paid for two years' rent for the woman. A new video showed the apartment he just rented for her.
