In His Words
As the boat started to capsize, Okene found himself wearing only his boxer shorts when he was tossed out of the bathroom. He said: “I was dazed, and everywhere was dark as I was thrown from one end of the small cubicle to another.”
Sheer Luck
Okene had no idea that he was actually the lucky one in this situation. He must have been absolutely terrified being tossed around from one side of the ship to another, but at least he was not trapped in his room. No other passengers were able to survive the ordeal.
