Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has showered encomiums on Daniel Joshua, a beneficiary of N-Power from Taraba state, for returning an unearned stipend of N60,000.

Like many other Nigerians, he was enrolled into the scheme but got a new job in April hence he was disengaged.

But even after his disengagement, the monthly payments were still coming.

He was paid for the months of May and June amounting to N60,000.

Joshua took a bold step by returning the whole amount to the N-Power account.

Osinbajo praised Joshua for his uncommon gesture, and described his act as “a story of integrity”.

“Daniel refunded payments of N-Power stipends credited to him for the period he had already disengaged from #NPowerNG,” the acting president wrote.

A story of integrity.
