Nigerian Striker Gives N1.1 Million Tip To Broke Taxi Driver
San Jose Earthquakes frontman Quincy Amarikwa showed an act of kindness to a cab driver by cutting a cheque of $2,200 (approximately N1.1 million ) after learning that he was behind in his mortgage payments. <br /><br />The California native was on his way to the airport when he entered a cab driven by Argentinian Pedro Hahamian, who told him of his difficulties working in the taxicab industry.<br /><br />“If you think of others first, you’ll have everything you need, ” Amarikwa told SJEarthquakes.com.<br /><br />“If you do something good for someone out of the kindness of your heart, they feel more compelled to the the same or more for someone else.<br /><br />“I just said, ‘Pedro, it was nice to meet you, I would love for you to pay it forward the next time you can help someone.”<br /><br />Amarikwa is eligible to represent the United States and Nigeria but has committed his international future to the African powerhouse. <br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br /><br />Photo Credit : mlssoccer.com<br />
