Death On Duty Or Rescued

Merci!

A man was rescued after his cargo ship sank in the Sea last Saturday. According to marine accident specialist investigation the man spent 48 hours in the Sea praying and floating with the help of a life jacket. The man was rescued by marine conservation organization Sea Shepherd and the Liberian coastguard off the West African Nation (WAN).

The Niko Ivanka cargo ship has left the Liberian capital Monrovia on July 17th even after it was forbidden to do so due to the failure to meet basic safety requirements.

Later that afternoon, the ship's crew sent a distress signal; the ship had partially sunk by the time help arrived.

They were 19 people on board as per the official records. 11 people were rescued within 36 hours after the distress signal was sent, Liberian Maritime Authority spokesman, Eugene Nagbe said,

"However, the people who were rescued from the waters said that there were 28 people on the ship. This means that 17 people are still unaccounted for.

Liberia's deputy information minister Jarlaywah Tonpose told Reuters that exact number of people on board the Niko Ivanka remains unknown. The vessel was not a passenger-authorised vessel and yet it had passengers on board. So in the coming days, investigation will establish how many people were on board.

Have you ever been in a situation that your life is placed on the line or better still put in a scenario that will change the faith of tens of thousands of people. If so what did you risk?

The is these saying, remember me when I am gone for my life was well spent.

I, for instance, am leaving in a hold where people expect either:

1. You are the smart one,that all see.

2. You got all the money and fame, all see.

3. You are of importance in a city or world due to your field of work.

This keep me guessing, what the bloody point of proving to people.......?

Safety first 🗣👤🌊

It's not the first time a seafarer or someone falls from the ship into the ocean without a safety jacket. Still, we should be where that, not all falls guarantee safe come back. As an officer, pilot and rating. We should make it a habit to always follow safety procedures except unorthodox circumstances show up. From the picture above you can see that the seafarer recently used the gangway to come down to the ladder before exiting the ship to the other vessel whose aim was to pick him/her up no matter the reason. All safety steps taken up till that point seemed safe and professional. As we know but refuse to admit it, "Small changes/mistakes/corrections affected big conclusive results". Still from the picture, you can see that the sea level is not the best and it will be hard to hold to one's stability; if you were to stand in a vessel with less stability than the one you were on. Nevertheless, before his/her fall without the safety jacket. If he/she held on to th...

Connection| Potential| Ambition

Given all that was and what is to come, a common word links them all. The work connection. An ability to provide information of all shapes and kind to none common sense sigma. This ability existed long before the creation of mankind. In the world we leave today, 3 things matter the most for a successful career. There are as follows; Connections It can be viewed in two or more ways but, I know of two only beings; YOU KNOW WHO AND WHO KNOWS. Most of us got to thank our parents, relatives or many other unknown characters that help us achieve our goals behind closes doors. Most opportunities like travelling abroad were preorganized before we even had the time to say, "Why". Knowing different people, cultures and breaking past language barriers has proven to be a source of opportunity to achieve even greater dreams over the sky . For example, a poor boy can only dream below his ceiling which is what is imaginary and real to reach but is also impossible from where they are now. Th...

Welcome Back Comrades

The reopening 🇨🇲🇬🇲🇬🇭🇱🇷🇸🇱 It is a new day, it's a new life... As of January, most marine academies around the world were given a green card of access by their respective country president which came well with a lot of rules concerning the vitality and safety of both the student and civilians involved. As for Africa as a whole, symptoms of the COVID-19 virus have been more of talk and no see. We can say the nation as a whole is doing a pretty great job. Some rumors claim that the newly installed 5G system cuz this pandemic due to the installation side effects of the radiative waves; the world as you know can't be destroyed by mere tricks but, that doesn't mean your world is. Politic is a field of pride and conning people who play a game of what-ifs. It's indeed cruel when the effects aren't in favor of the innocent; who decided that? For in a world such as this one, the strong devour the weak to gain more strength. In other words, imagine, I own a company (A...

A Moment Of Happiness

Hi ladies and Gentlemen, Still in the early era of Corona virus. Covered with vast deaths and tiers from our love once. Hope for things to get better gradually failed. School of the Maritime industry are sinking monthly. Students semester fees seem to be lost money. Parent as well as individual are having a hard time managing themselves.
