A Ghanaian commercial driver Evans Asare and his bus conductor, who owes rent have displayed honesty by returning a bag full of money found in their vehicle.

The duo, Evans Asare and Kofi Hitler, operate within Accra Tudu and Lapaz. They were working on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, when they found the bag sitting in their commercial bus.

Narrating the incident, the bus conductor, Kofi Hitler, indicated that after work on Tuesday, he handed over the day's sales to his master, who proceeded to count the money.

He then went into the car to clean up the mess created by the passengers. In the process, he noticed the bag and opened it only to discover a huge sum of money in it.

Mate speaks on motivation for returning money

Speaking to a Despite Media staff, Kofi Hitler shared their motivation for returning the money. He noted that despite owing rent, they decided to return the money since it didn't belong to them.

He explained that they were concerned that the owner might be searching for his bag and the huge sum of money he/she mistakenly left in the vehicle.

Ghanaian man returns lady’s missing wallet

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that a Ghanaian man in the United States (US) was kind enough to return the missing wallet of an African-American lady he saw at a fuel station.

However, when he finally handed the wallet over to the lady, he told her he had taken $20 to buy fuel since he needed the money.

Meanwhile, the young woman who initially thought the man returned her wallet untouched was amazed when the man explained himself.

This triggered different reactions from Ghanaians online, who gave different arguments on whether the man was right or wrong.
