Azmeh Dawood, aunt to the 19-year-old British university student, Suleman, who died in the tragic Titanic submarine implosion, has revealed why her nephew joined the crew on the voyage.

Speaking to NBC News, Dawood said Suleman joined the crew to please his dad for Father’s Day.

According to her, Suleman told a relative he wasn’t feeling well but felt obligated to impress his father, who was particularly interested in the 1912 shipwreck.

She said, “I am thinking of Suleman, who is 19, in there, just perhaps gasping for breath… It’s been crippling, to be honest.”

Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman were two of the five people killed when the OceanGate submersible imploded.

The other victims were OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, French Navy veteran Paul-Henri (PH) Nargeolet, and British billionaire Hamish Harding.

They had been missing since the Titan sub went missing on Sunday, resulting in a tense search for the crew.

Meanwhile, Kanyi Daily reported that an Australian billionaire, Clive Palmer had commissioned a Chinese state-owned company to build a 21st Century version of the Titanic.

In other news, Skit maker, Trinity Guy has reported himself at the Oyo State Police Command.

He turned himself in, to the police on Friday.
