He shared a photo of them together on Facebook and wrote, “Before going on TV I went to my mechanic to ask him about what I saw all over the Internet yesterday. He has been serving me very well. So when I read that he returned 10.8 million to one of his customers I was impressed. Today when I saw him he was quite ill. He said he is having headache. The man that he returned his money gave him N50,000.00. People can be really unimaginable. Behold!”
