 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...

 Why Obasanjo Once Branded Me A ‘Stupid Boy’ – Billionaire Femi Otedola


Billionaire businessman Femi Otedola has recounted a tense encounter with then-Nigerian president Olusegun Obasanjo — one that ended with the ex-president branding him a “stupid boy,”.


Otedola shared the explosive episode in his upcoming book, Making It Big: Lessons from a Life in Business, set for release on August 18. He revealed that Obasanjo became furious after being told that a diesel scarcity — allegedly caused by deregulation — was crippling the economy.


The former president accused Otedola of misleading him into deregulating diesel importation, which had previously been under the absolute monopoly of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).


Otedola, who was then Chairman of Zenon Petroleum, had assured Obasanjo that the private sector could handle the deregulated market without NNPC involvement, effectively ending the diesel subsidy.


Diesel became the first petroleum product to be deregulated in 2004. But when opponents told the president that trucks had stopped moving, industries were shutting down, and the market was collapsing, Obasanjo — according to IReporter Online — lost his temper.


“The President called me at 2am, shouting through the phone: ‘You’re a stupid boy! God will punish you! You persuaded me to deregulate diesel, and now there’s no diesel in the country!’” Otedola recalled.


He immediately flew to Abuja the next day to meet Obasanjo face-to-face. The president, still seething, confronted him again, but Otedola countered with proof — letters of credit showing six ships loaded with diesel waiting to discharge supplies.


Otedola said he was the victim of fierce industry sabotage from NNPC loyalists opposed to deregulation, adding that he was even paying heavy demurrage while his ships were berthed.


He promised the president that he would publicly advertise diesel availability to counter the false scarcity narrative.


In the end, Obasanjo — known for his resolute decision-making — stopped listening to the “naysayers” once he confirmed Otedola’s sincerity,
