A FISHERMAN who lost his young son in tragic circumstances two years ago has sadly died in a freak accident on a trawler off the southwest coast of Ireland.

Moses Odonkor, who was originally from Ghana, suffered fatal injuries on a trawler off the coast of Cork on Tuesday morning.

His crew mates tried to revive him, but sadly were unsuccessful in their attempts.

The authorities were contacted and the ‘Boy Jason’ trawler made for shore arriving in Castletownbere, Co Cork, on Wednesday morning.

A post-mortem examination is due to be carried out at Cork University Hospital.

The coroner has been informed and an inquest will be heard in due course.

The vessel was fishing for prawns on the Porcupine Bank, west of the Blasket Islands, when the accident occurred.

It is understood the 53-year-old suffered a blow to the head in the course of his work.

The death is being treated as a tragic accident.

The Marine Casualty Investigation Unit, the Marine Survey Office and the Health and Safety Authority have all been informed.

Lost At Sea charity chairman, Niall Duffy, said that Mr Odonkor, who was an experienced fisherman, was well thought of by his peers and the general community.

He said: “On behalf of the fishing community, I want to extend our sympathies to the family and his fellow crew mates on the tragic loss of a respected and well-liked crew man.”

Mr Odonkor was predeceased by his son Joshua.

He is survived by his wife, Philomena, and their son, Emmanuel.

TRAGIC DEATH

Moses’ late son Joshua died on January 25, 2023.

It is understood the toddler choked on a grape at the family home.

Emergency services rushed to the scene but were unable to resuscitate the youngster.

Joshua was later laid to rest in St Patrick’s cemetery in Coronea, Skibbereen, following prayers at a funeral home.

AN EXPERT has claimed the FBI should investigate Prince Harry for potentially “lying” on his US visa application – rather than looking into Prince Andrew.

Royal photographer and expert Arthur Edwards spoke to The Sun’s Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson on the Royal Exclusive Show this week.

Arthur believes the US agency should focus on this rather than to look into Prince Andrew, who is facing fresh calls to be investigated by lawyers of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein[/caption]

His reaction came in response to a request by the lawyer for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein that the royal family and UK government hand over Prince Andrew to the FBI for an investigation.

He said: “The FBI have investigated it once, I’m sure they’ve got better things to do.

“Why don’t they investigate Prince Harry?

“Harry got a visa when he admitted taking drugs at school.”

Prince Harry has been embroiled in a legal battle over his US visa application after it was revealed in his memoir Spare that he had previously consumed cannabis, cocaine, and psychedelic mushrooms.

The duke’s legal team were summoned to court on Wednesday for a “motion for relief from judgement”, following pressure from conservative think-tank The Heritage Foundation.

While the judge had ruled in September last year that his documents would not be made public, judge Carl Nichols re-opened the case, with the hearing taking place in the US capital.

This will be the first time the case has sat since the second inauguration of President Trump, who has previously warned Harry that he could face consequences if he lied about taking drugs on his US visa application.

President Trump said in a GB News interview with Nigel Farage in March last year that Harry should not receive preferential treatment.

Asked if the duke should have “special privileges” if he is found to have lied in his application, the president said: “No. We’ll have to see if they know something about the drugs, and if he lied they’ll have to take appropriate action.”

He also previously vowed, before he was elected, that “Harry is on his own” if he became president again.

The president also has the power to intervene and can ask for the documents regarding his application to be released.

In his controversial memoir, the prince said cocaine “didn’t do anything for me”, adding: “Marijuana is different, that actually really did help me.”

Returning to the idea of turning over Prince Andrew to the FBI, expert Arthur believes it is unlikely to happen.

He said: “They’ve got better things to do than that and also it would embarrass the Royal Family for the FBI to bring a charge against Andrew for something they’ve already done just because a lawyer says the FBI should do it.

“Lawyers are going to say that because they’ve got people to defend.

“The thing is, I think Andrew is his own worst enemy.”

Arthur continued: “He’s arrogant and he does things without thinking and he ignores advice.

“The biggest advice he ignored was doing that show with Emily Maitlis – the Newsnight show.

“It was an absolute disaster for him and the royal family.

“The king had no choice but to cast him aside.”

Prince Andrew paid millions to Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre in an out-of-court settlement three years ago, while denying sexual assault accusations.

In 2020, the FBI asked the Home Office for help to quiz Andrew but that investigation was paused last year.

Last week, High Court files revealed the prince emailed Epstein in February 2011 saying “we’ll play some more soon”.

But in his BBC Newsnight interview, Andrew said he ceased contact with Epstein in December 2010 after they were pictured in New York.

LUKE LITTLER is “annoyed” that oche rivals are raising their game to extraordinary levels against him – then flopping in their next assignments.

On the eve of the start of his Premier League title defence in Belfast, The Nuke expressed his frustration that he is facing fired-up opponents who are playing out of their skin to beat him.

The first time it happened was at the 2024 UK Open in Minehead when Australian Damon Heta averaged 106.04 in a 10-8 quarter-final win but then went out in the next round.

It happened in Bahrain last month when Littler lost to Gerwyn Price, who averaged 115.31 but was then eliminated in the next game.

Littler, the reigning PDC world darts champion, said: “Oh, it does annoy me.

“They’ll probably play the 64th player in the world, throw a mid-90 average but still get the win.

“With me, I just know (they’ll raise their game). I just know within the first leg against anyone, I know what to expect from them.

“It’s weird. They’ll play their best against me but they’ve got to get themselves ready again for the next game.”

Littler – who has won 11 titles as a professional and thrown four nine-darters – continued: “Ever since last year, I’ve known that these players are going to have to pull it out of the bag to beat me.

“But when they do beat me with a high average, it’s also good for them.

“I’m like: ‘Yeah, you have got it there, but can you do it in the next game and next game after that?’

“When a player does beat me with a high average usually you do see them go out next round.

“Fair play to Jonny Clayton at the Masters as he beat me and then went all the way to the final.

“Most of the time people have beaten me and sadly they have gone out the next round.

“They don’t have to raise their game anymore. Make sure you get that in!”

In May 2024, Littler banked £315,000 in prize money when he won the Prem on his debut appearance, hitting a perfect leg in the O2 Arena final against Luke Humphries.

His first of four nightly wins came in Belfast last March and he will have good memories of the SSE Arena.

The Warrington teenager will resume his rivalry with Michael van Gerwen tomorrow in the quarter-finals – a rematch of their world final at Ally Pally on January 3.

Northern Ireland is the first destination on the 17-week invitational Road Show, which is spread across seven countries and involves eight top players.

World No.1 Humphries, 29, reckons the Prem is “tougher to win than the World Championship because it’s a long slog”.

Littler concurred with that sentiment, saying: “I’d say it’s the hardest tournament to win week-in, week-out.

“You have got to stay there, you don’t want to go into the second half of the season chasing points and needing loads of points to get through.

“If you can get off to a good start it’s perfect.

“I’m feeling okay. I might feel nervous when it comes to the task on Thursday. There are always nerves in those first few legs. I’m hoping for a quick start against Michael just like the world final.”

Littler frustrated some of his Prem rivals on Wednesday when he arrived late for a photoshoot.

Van Gerwen said: “They need to stop treating him as a baby. He’s not a baby anymore, he’s 18-years-old.

“It happens. He has to learn. You have to learn the hard way.

“It’s a professional sport so you have to be responsible for your actions, simple as that.

“If he turns up late for an interview, I don’t really mind.

“But seven other people were waiting for him, that’s not really nice. But it is what it is.”
