New York, USA – E be like say wahala don burst for de deep sea matter wey involve dat Titan submersible wey wey chop body for June 2023. Stockton Rush, de late CEO of OceanGate, don come under fire, as dem dey call am di main culprit for di kabob as di U.S. Coast Guard don release dem final report, wey no sweet for the man at all.
Di report wey dem drop, dey heavy gangan – e be like 335 pages of padi padi! E call Rush out say him no follow wetin dem set as standard engineering protocols. Dem even accuse OceanGate say dem sabi wetin dem dey do but dem decide to play sharp play by creating confusion for regulatory matters. (E don dey serious o!)
But one mission specialist wey talk to di press, prefer to keep im name on the low, no gree make dem put all di blame for Rush head. According to am, di travelers wey enter di sub don sabi di risks wey dem dey take. “As you dey go for dat kind adventure, you go hear plenty information and you go sign waiver. E mean say you don know sey wetin dey happen get level of risk wey no be small,” e talk.
Among di passengers for di fateful journey, e get Hamish Harding, di British explorer and businessman; Paul-Henri Nargeolet, di French maritime guru wey don don dive before; Shahzada Dawood, di businessman wey sabi the UK and Pakistan matter; and im 19-year-old son, Suleman Dawood, wey dey school. Wetin wey happen na say all of dem go down to see di famous Titanic wreck. But as dem go enter di sub, dem no fit turn back again. Na serious matter so!
Di mission specialist still insist say na accident be dis one, and e dey sorry sey am happen. “No be just Stockton Rush alone be di cause of dis wahala. Plenty people dey involved for dis matter, and dem fit also stop am too.”(Na who send dem go inside? Just ask!)
Di Coast Guard report say di tragedy fit don avoid if dem no ignore di many warnings wey dem give Rush regarding di safety of di submersible. Dem say Rush dey create false sense of safety, dey give wrong information about di hull wey dey protect di sub and di test wey dem don do. E mean say e no gree say di thing get as e be. (Chai! Wetin dash am so?)
One part wey dey disturb be sey dem talk say wetin lead to di kuku wahala fit don dey di maintenance issues. Di mission specialist no deny wetin dem talk, say dat one fit happen. “Di hull don go down at least 15 times to di Titanic before dis palaver. So di design no fit be di wahala. Di objective na to reach di Titanic and dem don reach am.”
Amen! Wetin we dey see for here na reminder sey even di safest ventures fit turn to big big issues. Life na gamble, and sometimes, di dice no go roll as you expect am. As e be, OceanGate don receive plenty heat for dis matter, but di voice wey dey defend Rush say na all of dem wey dey involved be blamer too! (Abi na true or wetin?).
