 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...

EFCC TO OPAY : MAKE COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS YOUR WATCHWORD. (PHOTOS). #PRESS RELEASE


 EFCC to OPAY :  Make Compliance with Regulations Your Watchword


The Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr. Ola Olukoyede  has charged the management and staff of Opay   to make compliance with  existing regulations  a watchword to ensure business integrity and block avenues for money laundering and fraudulent practices.


 Olukoyede gave the charge in Abuja on Thursday,  December 11, 2025 when the Chief Executive Officer,  CEO,   Opay, Mr. Steven Wen  led other top managers of the financial institution on a courtesy visit to the EFCC headquarters.


The EFCC boss, who spoke through the Chief of Staff, CoS, to the Chairman, Commander of the EFCC, CE Michael Nzekwe stated that one of the mantras of Olukoyede was  using  the instrumentality of anti-corruption to stimulate growth in the economy.   He, therefore, charged the managers to keep faith with extant laws in running their business.


“ Work on  Know Your Customers,  KYC,  don’t give room for fraud,  don’t allow your company to be used for money laundering  and comply with every law of the land”, he said.   While further emphasizing the need for compliance, he  commended Opay for considering local content in its employment policy.


“Your ninety-nine percent local employees are very good, we must commend you for that,  but then again it is also important to reiterate the need for compliance with  local laws. It is very important because you have to ensure that it is not just by word  of mouth but more by action that you comply with the local laws.


Also speaking on the need for compliance, Director, Investigation, Commander of the EFCC,   CE Abdulkarim Chukkol reiterated the need for systems integrity adding that Opay must ensure it safeguards itself against  insider abuse in the company.


“Systems integrity is also very important to look at, secondly the KYC, it is not enough for us to say let us just follow  only what the CBN has given us,   but again,  you have to go the extra mile.  I also want to give advice on the people that you employ, sometimes insider abuse is very rampant, no matter how tight your system is,  when you bring in somebody that can do and undo,  then definitely everybody is at risk”, he said.


Earlier in his presentation,  Wen disclosed that compliance with regulations,  customer satisfaction and revenue generation are priorities his company considered very important.  


“The most important thing in our company is compliance with local laws, compliance with local regulations, second is customer certification, how we use innovative solutions to solve our customer problems to provide them value. Then,  number three is how to grow our revenue.  We believe that compliance with the law is a red line we cannot cross”, he said.
