An honest Ghanaian taxi driver who returned a hefty amount of money to its owner has been employed by The Church of Pentecost Headquarters in Accra, Ghana.
A letter of employment dated June 15, 2022, and signed by the Human Resource Manager, Elder Samuel Mantey Addo, stated: “The Church of Pentecost Headquarters hereby offers you employment as Driver Grade II…”
According to 36-year-old Kwesi Ackon who started work today, working at the church’s headquarters would further build his Christian faith and values.
Kwesi Ackon also thanked many Ghanaians who donated various sums of money and items to him when the news about the issue broke out.
The news of Kwesi Ackon went viral a few weeks ago after he returned an amount of GHS 8,400.00 he found at the back of his car to the owner.
The act by Kwesi Ackon which was captured on video went viral and subsequently caught the attention of several people including the Vice President of the Republic, His Excellency Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, who donated GHS 20,000.00 to him.
Other organisations and individuals who were touched by the gesture have since donated several amounts to him, prominent among them was Rev. Lawrence Tetteh who donated a brand new Daewoo Matrix to him.
