 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...

REPS PANEL TO UMAHI: YOU HAVE NO PLAN TO FIX DEPLORABLE ROADS- YOUR PRIORITIES MISPLACED. (PHOTO).


 Reps panel to Umahi: You have no plan to fix deplorable roads — your priorities misplaced


The house of representatives committee on Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) has berated David Umahi, minister of works, over the state of roads across the country. 

During an interactive session on Thursday, Remi Oseni, chairman of the committee, claimed that Umahi is getting his priorities wrong.

Addressing the committee, Umahi attributed the deplorable state of roads to a dearth of resources.

The committee chairman disagreed with the minister, stating that funding is not the problem.

“You are not here to tell us what we already know in the area of resources,” Oseni said.

“So, if you are telling us the reason you have failed in fixing our road infrastructure is because of resources — don’t let me take you up on that because you concentrated your energy as a minister on less priority issues.

“Don’t discuss resources. All the roads that we have across the country have failed. If you are addressing the existing roads with the resources that you have, Hon minister, we will not be where we are. Don’t discuss resources.

“Last year, you got N300 billion supplementary budget approval. Don’t raise my emotions. I am worried that you are not concerned about fixing Nigerian roads.

“We are not here for business of whether you want to do the job or you don’t want to do the job. Stop telling us you are awarding road contracts.

“We don’t want you to be awarding roads that you are not ready to do. How can you be telling us that there are no resources? With what everybody (lawmakers) has said, it is a clue that you have no plan for us as a nation.”

Umahi has remained laser-focused on the construction of the 700km Lagos-Calabar coastal highway which is estimated to cost N15 trillion.
