Mr Asani Mutarika Ibrahim, a sanitation worker in the Tamale metropolitan area, discovered GH₵20,000 ( equivalent to $1,306)  in a waste bag during his routine duties. Instead of keeping the money, he disclosed the discovery to his colleagues, took it home for safekeeping, and waited for the rightful owner to come forward. A few days later, the owner approached their workplace, and Mr. Ibrahim returned the full amount.

To honour this act of integrity, Zoomlion Ghana Limited rewarded Mr. Ibrahim with an undisclosed amount of Ghana cedis, U.S. dollars, and a motorbike.
