Ned Nwoko Narrates How He Escaped Titanic Submarine Tragedy
Senator Ned Munir Nwoko, a member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) representing Delta North, expressed his deep sorrow and grief over the tragic passing of his dear friend and business partner, Hermish Harding describing the news as extremely saddening, unfortunate, shocking, and devastating.
He shared his heartfelt condolences and mourned the untimely demise of his dear friend and business partner through a post on his official Instagram account.
Harding tragically lost his life during a submarine expedition to explore the wreckage of the Titanic. The senator and Harding had previously embarked on a joint expedition to Antarctica in 2020.
Nwoko shared, “I have lost a very dear friend and business partner. Captain Hermish Harding. We both went on a very dangerous expedition to the Southpole Antarctica few years back. He was a gulf stream pilot who flew across the world in a record-breaking expedition by Guinness World Record for circumnavigation of the earth some years ago.
“He descended into the Mariana. He also invited me on his space shuttle last year and this very Titan ill-fated adventure but I was tied down with national duties. Above all, he was a partner on the various research into eradication of malaria in Africa project. He was very enthusiastic about it and always gave his support at every given opportunity.
“His last message to me was this last Sunday when he told me they were ready to dive to the Titanic if the weather permits. He loved adventure and challenges. My heart bleeds for his dear wife and kids who have become family friends over the years. We will surely miss his wealth of experience.”
Reports have emerged stating that Senator Ned Munir Nwoko’s recent inauguration as one of the Senators of the 10th National Assembly prevented him from joining Hermish Harding on the ill-fated Titanic expedition, which ended in a tragic manner, shocking the world.
Tragically, Harding and four others lost their lives during the submarine expedition. The casualties included Stockton Rush, the founder of OceanGate, Paul-Henri Nargeolet, a French diver, and Shahzada Dawood, a Pakistani businessman, along with his 19-year-old son Suleman.
After days of extensive search efforts, the United States Coast Guard declared them deceased. The devastating incident occurred when the small vessel transporting them to the site of the 111-year-old Titanic wreckage suffered a catastrophic implosion. The news has left the world in shock and mourning.

The Senior Pastor of Freedom Life International Christian Center, Richard Tochukwu, has declared that gospel music possesses the spiritual capacity to transform Nigeria, describing it as a divine instrument capable of restoring hope and unity in the nation.

“Gospel music is not just sound; it carries power. When songs are inspired by Scripture, they can heal hearts, restore faith and redirect a nation toward righteousness,” he said.
Pastor Tochukwu made the remarks while discussing his latest worship single, “I Want To Pray,” a spiritually reflective song produced by Audio5.
He explained that the track was created to encourage believers to remain steadfast in prayer and maintain consistent fellowship with God.
The song draws inspiration from Luke 18:1, which urges believers to pray always and not lose heart.
A spiritual son of Paul Enenche, Pastor Tochukwu revealed that most of his songs are birthed from deep study of Scripture.
“Sometimes while studying or preaching from a passage, a melody begins to flow. The lyrics are drawn directly from the Word. Our songs are intentional; they carry the same message we preach,” he explained.
Reflecting on his journey, he recounted beginning as a drummer who also sang before discovering what he described as a divine instruction to minister through music.
“I realised that you don’t minister only through preaching. God made me understand that songs are another channel through which His Word can reach people. Every release is backed by Scripture,” he added.
Pastor Tochukwu currently serves in Lagos, combining pastoral leadership with music ministry.
The audio and video for “I Want To Pray” are now available on major digital streaming platforms.
