A Nigerian expatriate in Qatar turned into a mogul for a few hours after a bank erroneously kept more than QR1.5 million ($411,127.99) into his account of late.
The man, Michael Asemota, had opened an account with a check of QR150,200 with an undisclosed business bank, where he is the sole signatory of the record.
As he got back home, he got an alert showing that a QR1,502,000 had been credited into his account by botch rather than QR150,200. Asemota backpedaled to the bank and restored the cash.
Addressing Qatar Tribune, Asemota stated,
”After opening the account with the bank, I checked my balance to make withdrawals for a supply job and found the huge sum. I was amazed and decided to contact the bank.
I went to see the manager to report the error of QR1,502,000 deposited into my account. After checking for confirmation, the manager gave me a warm handshake in appreciation.” .
Inquired as to why he alarmed the bank about the blunder, Asemota stated,
”I knew the money did not belong to me and shouldn’t be in my account in the first place, so there were no motives and temptations to keep it.”
