Travel / Re: Inside The Ill-fated Oceangate Titan Submarine That Imploded Killing 5 (Pic/Vid) by grandlexuz(m): 1:36pm On Jun 27, 2023
Jennyclay:
I learnt that the OceanGate CEO is a very stubborn man that doesn’t heed to his worker’s advice. He’s so hardened that he don’t even employ workers above the age of 48 years just because he don’t want to heed to elderly advice.

Before they went on that journey of no return, one of this workers advised him that the submarine isn’t standard enough to go beyond 5,000 feet not to talk of 12,500 feet, but he didn’t listen, he even sacked the said worker. Now he’s gone despite all the sophisticated hypes and brags.

Well, I really felt for them because they are billionaires. Assuming they were broke men I don’t think I’ll be so concerned about the catastrophic implosion

The 61years old CEO of OceanGate who perished along side four passengers in his Titan Sub was a seasoned entrepreneur with a First class honours in Aeronautical Engineering. At 19 years he obtained a Jet Pilot licence with a record. His employees all remember him as a charismatic figure who had his way of persuading skeptics to source funding for his company. He led from the front like a true entrepreneur with a vision that once included the first man to land in Mars. The sub that crashed wasn't on its maiden voyage. It had successfully made tourist voyages to the Titanic accident site of a little over 4000m depth.

The problem is his sub was unlike others made of steel, his was made of Titanium and Carbon fibre with a more cozy design. That's science for you, at some point someone has got to stretch the limits to make it the norm. Afterall Galileo was once ostracised for saying the Sun and not the earth is the Center of the Universe. Without mandatory certifications for subs in international waters he trusted his scientific instinct and made a vessel that made it a bunch of times to the Titanic before finally imploding. At this point we can only surmise what went wrong. Only at the end of proper investigation can we say for certain what fell short.

Mind you even the Certified Boeing Max had one of its branded Max plane just fall off the skies. It took several accidents to figure out something was actually wrong with the software despite certifications by the regulatory

It was guaranteed that 60% of Russian army will deflect to Wagner.

Putin knew what is up!

Look at the welcome Wagner got, it tells that the people are fed up of Putin.


Guaranteed by your village ancestors I suppose. Even the West accepts Wagner couldn't pull any Russian soldier to defect yet you gave a 60% estimate.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Criminal charges against Wagner Force dropped, leader heads to Belarus - Kremlin by grandlexuz(m): 9:09am On Jun 25, 2023
IgOga:
Putin is more cerebral than most leaders.

It's a good outcome for him. Russia needs wagner in Ukraine. Moving wagner leader to Belarus should concern Ukraine......there could be a potential Wagner unit fighting Ukraine from the North through Belarus.


Prigozhin is more eager to kill Ukrainians than Putin.....all these is about his impatience with the Russian MOD for being to slow in slaughtering Ukrainians. Wagner destroyed mariopol and Bakmuth

Part of the safety deal for Prigozhin sees him stripped as Wagner boss

ivolt:
Prigozin is a fool.
If you must aim for the emperor, make sure you don't miss but he missed.
Putin will now have enough time to destroy him completely.
Prigozin is a dead man walking and FSB will likely place secret bounty on his head.
He can't go back to Russia and he can't go back to fighting either because the Russian
Army will refuse to give him sufficient arms.
He got the attention he wanted at the cost of his life.

Part of the deal to see him seek asylum in Belarus strips him as the head of Wagner. He will also see his Wagner Force integrated into the Russian Defence Ministry by 1st July. Big loser

The Kpayo local name of the smuggled fuel from Nigeria got me laughing. In Cameroon it is called Zoa. For the most part I think most smuggled fuel found in Cameroon comes from illegal refineries. The quality is known to be inferior and destructive to car engines.

verimoore:
After reading your story about Sam Amadi's tweet, I can understand how it must have been disappointing for many people to see a public figure like him make such a mistake. However, it takes a lot of courage and humility to admit when we've made a mistake, and I think it's admirable that he apologized and took responsibility for his actions. It's important for all of us to remember that we are human and we will make mistakes, but what truly matters is how we handle them and the lessons we learn from them.

You are definitely right. However at a time when fake news has become a thorn in the eye a respected journalist should not be found wanting. To whom much is given much is expected..Using the picture of the CJN to stir controversy cant be overlooked.

Their throwback picture doesn’t put her as a very older woman. Even in the current picture, she is not old. Her dress, hairstyle, and overall expression are the problem here

More so I think the husband simply refused to age putting the wife in the spotlight as older

Well done bro! You have found a homely woman who will take care of the home front.

People age differently according to their genetic make-up. The lady's is noticeable cos the husband is a Dorian Gray. I watched a recent movie of Frank shocked he hasn't changed

He is not one of my favorite actors though. I think he over acts.

He is a Liberian that grew to stardom in Ghanaian movies. The other guy is Van Vicker
