 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...

 LSWMO SEALS RESIDENTIAL ESTATE IN LEKKI PHASE I FOR ENVIRONMENTAL NUISANCE, OBSTRUCTION OF DUTY


The Lagos State Wastewater Management Office (LSWMO) on Wednesday, 7th January 2026, sealed off a residential estate located at No. 96B, Ladipo Omotesho Street, Lekki Phase I, over persistent environmental nuisance and obstruction of statutory duties by residents and facility managers.


Speaking on the exercise, the General Manager, Engr. Adefemi Afolabi, explained that the enforcement action followed repeated complaints and several notices served on the estate over indiscriminate discharge of untreated wastewater, poor sewage management practices and deliberate attempts to prevent LSWMO officers from carrying out routine inspection and compliance monitoring.


He noted that despite earlier engagements and warnings, the estate failed to remedy the infractions, thereby posing health and environmental risks to the surrounding community.


According to him, the sealing-off was carried out in strict compliance with Lagos State environmental laws and the mandate of LSWMO to protect public health and the environment, stressing that the estate will remain sealed until all observed violations are fully corrected and verified by the Office.


While condemning the act of obstruction of enforcement officers on duty, the General Manager warned individuals or groups to desist from hindering, harassing, or interfering with duly authorised officers in the discharge of their statutory responsibilities.


Reaffirming the State’s commitment to safeguarding public health and promoting sustainable wastewater management practices across the State, Engr. Adefemi urged residents to adopt proper wastewater management and hygiene practices to support public health, warning that any act of environmental nuisance will attract appropriate sanctions and possible prosecution.


He also implored residents to report any environmental infractions, assuring them that the agency can be reached via its official lines: 08022022397, 07025332163, or through its social media platforms: @lswmomedia on Instagram and Twitter, and The Lagos Wastewater Management Office on Facebook.
