While many would’ve done otherwise, a sweet-hearted honest university student has shown that there are still good people in Sierra Leone.

Bobson Mohamed Alieu, a student of Fourah Bay College has wowed the internet after he returned a Tecno Camon 16 phone to the owner who had forgotten it in a Kekeh. According to Bobson, he had to defy ill advice from friends who suggested that he should not return the smartphone.

This happened in February on a Monday at around 9:00 AM. The young man took a tricycle (Keke) from Lumley to Congo cross headed for an appointment in a hurry and mistakenly forgot his phone (Techno Camon 16) in the tricycle (Keke). In a post he shared with Salone Gossip, he said they were only two in the Kekeh. He noted that he bought the phone in November last year and has not completed payment for the phone when this misfortune happened to him.

Returning home, the young man’s wife has been trying to reach him on the phone the calls were not answered, the man told his wife that he mistakenly left the phone in Kekeh, “I told her that I lost my phone and I also tell her the whole truth and how it’s happened she told me that I’m lying because she called me 1½ hours ago I said no I don’t think my phone will be switched on by now and she simultaneously took her own very self phone and call my phone and it rang and call me because I was sitting outside saying ” Ibrahim cam some bodi don pik dae call” they interchange conversation and asked him that her husband is the owner of the phone and asked me to identify the phone which I did exactly.” She noted in a post on Salone Gossip.

The FBC student, Bobson Mohamed Alieu requested that they meet at Lumley so he could give him his phone. Read the full post below:

Hi Mr/Mrs Salone Gossip,

As you have been a face of Sierra Leone as one of the best Blogger in Sierra Leone and worldwide without no doubt, I want you to share this message all over, as mine is not for business purposes

A surprising thing happened to me earlier last month in February in Freetown on Monday at around 9:00 am, as we all know traffic congestion and also means of transportation in the morning hours is not an easy task. I took a tricycle (Keke) from Lumley to Congo cross I headed for an appointment in a hurry and mistakenly forgot my phone (Techno Camon 16) in the tricycle (Keke) and we were only two. I became so worried and disappointed for such a mistake that I did because I just bought the phone in November which I haven’t even completed paying for it so I didn’t even bother to call the phone because I believe that I can no longer have it anymore.

I went home sad and with a massive disappointment because I was expecting a very important call and we all know how things are difficult by now, and my wife question me that she has been given me missed calls and why I didn’t call her to call back, and I told her that I lost my phone and I also tell her the whole truth and how it’s happened she told me that I’m lying because she called me 1½ hours ago I said no I don’t think my phone will be switched on by now and she simultaneously took her own very self phone and call my phone and it rang and call me because I was sitting outside saying ” Ibrahim cam some bodi don pik dae call” they interchange conversation and asked him that her husband is the owner of the phone and asked me to identify the phone which I did exactly.
Surprisedly he told me for us to meet at Lumley roundabout but I didn’t think that he was saying the truth I ask him several times and convinced me by saying” if ar nor been wan gee u phone ar for don put am off ya so cam leh met nar Lumley because ar Taya baaad ar jus komot take class I was like waw I thought he is school going pupil or teacher, university/college student, lucky I went there and meet each other and hand over my phone safely with glad and tidiness I was so happy I hug him I feel goosebumps and tears comes from eyes and asked for his name imagine his name given to me was I think Bobson Mohamed Alieu.

I respect him a lot for being such a kindly and God-fearing person if we have such gentle and intelligent people in our society/world or mama Salone as a whole will be a very positive change in our country. Again, again and again, massive respect for you sir/ma’am
