A similar incident happened in Liberia in October 2021, where an 18-year-old motorcycle taxi rider found and returned $50,000 (£36,000) to a businesswoman who had lost the cash in the northeastern Nimba region.
The young lad was subsequently rewarded by the Liberian President, George Weah.
The motorcycle rider was also honoured as he became a national hero for his action.
