Prince Orji Ugochukwu, the Nigerian Immigration officer who gained widespread praise for rejecting a ₦10 million, Iphone 13 pro max, bribe from a fleeing suspected ritualist, Ezeani has been honoured in a grand gesture by Chief Dr. Ebuka Onunkwo. Dr. Onunkwo, who is the Chairman and CEO of Seahorse Lubricant Industries Ltd., rewarded Ugochukwu’s integrity with a cash gift of ₦5 million and a brand-new SUV.
This recognition comes in appreciation of Ugochukwu’s rare display of honesty and courage, especially in a climate where public service corruption often makes headlines. Dr. Onunkwo described Ugochukwu as a “symbol of hope and a role model,” emphasizing that his actions exemplify the values that should be upheld in public service.
The ceremony honoring Ugochukwu was well-attended, with many Nigerians commending both the immigration officer for his uprightness and Dr. Onunkwo for promoting and rewarding ethical behavior.
This development has sparked positive discussions online about integrity in service and the importance of celebrating such commendable actions.
