 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...

 House of Reps Asks CBN To Withdraw Old Naira Notes, Release Sufficient New Notes


Nigerian Lawmakers have urged the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to ensure wide circulation of new notes of N200, N500 and N1000 as well as begin a gradual withdrawal of the old notes from circulation.


This call was made after a motion raised by Adam Victor Ogene (LP, Anambra), demanding that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) should kick-start awareness programmes for Nigerians to be aware and prepare for the deadline of December 31, 2024.


Contributing to the discussion, the Labour Party lawmaker recounted the hardship, frustration, controversy and chaotic situation the implementation of the policy earlier caused in 2023.


He added that the scarcity of the new currency notes led to untold hardship in the nation as a result of the CBN’s inability to supply new versions of the changed currency notes.


"Going by the Supreme Court’s subsequent ruling and order, the N200, N500 and N1000 notes shall cease to be legal tender, medium of exchange for goods and services in Nigeria, and shall also cease to be in circulation as from January 1, 2025,” the lawmaker said. 


In 2022, a controversy erupted in Nigeria after the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), under the leadership of then-Governor Godwin Emefiele, announced plans to redesign and introduce new versions of three denominations of banknotes: N200, N500, and N1000.


The existing notes were to remain valid until January 31, 2023. 


The move had sparked widespread debate and discussion across the country.


According to Emefiele, the decision was reached due to persisting concerns around the number of naira notes outside the banking system.
