NPF Officer Mohammad Alhaji Muhammad has earned widespread praise for returning ₦2.6 million mistakenly sent to his account. According to a post by Bello Jafar on Friday, February 6, 2026, the officer’s swift action serves as a model of professional conduct and honesty within the Nigeria Police Force.
According to the viral post by Bello Jafar, Officer Muhammad’s integrity was put to the test when ₦2.6 million from a Moniepoint customer landed in his UBA account by mistake. Rather than stay silent, the Borno-based constable took proactive steps to trace the source and return every kobo, proving that character outweighs a windfall.
“I would like to formally express my appreciation for Mohammad Alhaji Muhammad, a loyal customer of United Bank for Africa (UBA) and a police officer of exceptional integrity,” Jafar wrote.
Refusing to stay silent about the sudden credit, the officer went above and beyond to trace the source of the error, proving that honesty is his true north.
“Mr Mohammad received an erroneous transfer from a Moniepoint customer.
Rather than ignoring the issue, he made deliberate efforts to identify the beneficiary bank and ensure that the funds were fully returned to the rightful owner,” he stated.
For Jafar, this was more than just a returned transfer—it was a masterclass in moral character. Officer Muhammad’s decision highlights a level of honesty and responsibility that remains as inspiring as it is rare.
“His conduct reflects the true values expected of a police officer and serves as an example worthy of recognition and commendation,” he added.
He noted that gestures like this do more than return money—they serve to rebuild public confidence and polish the image of the Nigeria Police Force.
”Acts like this strengthen public trust and highlight the importance of integrity in both professional and personal life,” the post read.
The Borno State Police Command has officially lauded the move, with PPRO Nahum Daso releasing the ₦2,618,720 refund receipt this Monday.
The post, titled ‘POLICE OFFICER COMMENDED FOR RETURNING ₦2.6 MILLION,’ serves as a public seal of approval for Officer Muhammad’s honesty.
