N2.5m was mistakenly transferred to my account.
I contacted the owner already.
I will be transferring the money back to him first thing tomorrow morning through a bank cheque cos I can’t access the account via the app! I dey bank! It’s not my money.
Late Friday evening and early Saturday morning, I received alert totalling N2.5m into my access account, few hours later I was able to trace the owner.
Contacted him and asked him for his details so I can pay in the money today, after due questions and investigations which confirmed the money belonged to him.
I will update you with an alert screenshot when the money is pulled out! Thanks for staying with me!
As of 01:05 pm! Transition done 
I feel emotional right now. There are decisions you take that attract extra measure!. It takes faithfulness and integrity to do this. I’m super proud of myself and the family I came from! A good name is better than ill-gotten wealth. You decide what to do but you don’t decide the consequences! Be you!!!
