Although the level of corruption, greed and selfishness is to a high degree among Nigerians, but truth is, there are still few honest and sacrificial Nigerians, who would forgo personal interest for the common good of others, among whom is the Jawa Pharmaceutical gateman, Musa Usman.

For Musa Usman, an indigene of Giljimmi, in Birniwa Local Government Area of Jigawa State, who faithfully served the pharmaceutical company for a long period of Twenty-five years, the offer of a house as a parting gift from the company was not worth the pain the people of his community have been undergoing in sourcing water, and thus, he turned it down for a borehole for his community.
