 No good deed goes unpunished.  A Florida sea tow captain saved a man from a burning ship only to be shoved overboard and have his boat stolen. This shocking incident occurred near Marco Island on March 6th. On that date, a call went out regarding a burning boat. The captain of a sea tow boat heard the distress call and rushed to provide aid. He was able to quickly locate the burning boat and  discovered 40-year-old, Ryan Deiter, and his dog onboard the burning ship. Wasting no time, the captain of the sea tow boat was able to maneuver alongside the distressed boat and begin efforts to extricate Deiter and his dog from the doomed vessel.  Eventually, the sea tow captain was able to pull both Deiter and his dog onboard the tow boat. However, once Deiter was pulled to safety, he repaid a stranger's kindness with treachery.  Deiter shoved the captain from his own boat and fled the scene in the stolen boat, leaving the man who had just risked his own vessel and life...

LASBCA BEGINS REMOVAL OF FIVE-FLOOR BUILDING ON LAGOS ISLAND FOR CONTRAVENTION.(PHOTO).#PRESS RELEASE



Urges Property Owners to Build to Specifications

Officials of Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA), have commenced the removal of a five-floor structure located at 7, BreadFruit Street, Lagos Island.

According to the General Manager of the Agency, Arc. Gbolahan Owodunni Oki, the Agency’s effort to reduce the rate of illegal construction in the State and curb the menace of building collapse prompted the demolition of the building to avert any imminent danger to public safety. 

He added that the owner of the building did not obtain any approval from the Agency which is contrary to the provisions of the law guiding construction works in every part of the State.


Speaking further, Oki said that several warnings and notices served on the developer to stop work proved abortive, hence the Agency had no option but to demolish the structure.


He also said that although there is a record of a request for a development permit submitted by the Developer of the building to the State Government, the structure could not get the approval as it was erected on government land under the supervision of Lagos State Urban Renewal Agency (LASURA).

The General Manager noted that the agency will not rest until building protocols are fully observed by all relevant stakeholders, as this will ensure the safety of the lives and properties of Lagosians.


While assuring residents of Lagos State that the government will ensure that all new buildings in the State are certified fit for habitation by LASBCA, Oki appealed to owners and developers to always build by the State’s building codes.
