Nigerian businessman and socialite Emeka Okonkwo, popularly known as E-Money, has surprised one of his staff members with a brand-new car reportedly worth ₦25 million after noticing her frequent lateness to work.
In a video making the rounds online, E-Money presented the employee with the keys to the new vehicle, explaining that the gift was meant to solve her transportation challenges, which had contributed to her repeated late arrivals.
The heartwarming gesture sparked mixed reactions on social media, with many praising the businessman for his generosity, while others joked that arriving late to work might now become a new strategy for employees hoping to receive similar gifts.
Some social media users also noted that while the gesture was commendable, employers should equally ensure staff are well compensated to maintain such vehicles.
