GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

DO YOU?.

“What you believe in can only be defined by what you’re willing to risk for it." - Stuart Scheller.

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

"Birth is agony. Life is hard. Death is cruel." - Japanese pithy.

REPENT OR PERISH - POPE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.


FOR SAKE OF COUNTRY.


MAGA LIVES ON: NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER!

TWITTER IS BORING WITHOUT HIS TWEETS. #RestorePresidentTrump'sTwitterHandle.


WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

VINCENT OGBULAFOR, A WHACK JOB!


Vincent Ogbulafor the unrepentant, "unelected but imposed" chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Nigeria was recently quoted as saying that his PDP will continue to rule Nigeria, uninterrupted, for the next six decades (60years). According to this oxygen-nose, it does not matter what anybody thinks as he does not care a hoot if Nigeria becomes a one-party state!

Icheoku says, what a way to enthrone a real working democracy in Nigeria? To tell every other aspiring opposition parties in Nigeria, that they might as well jump off the bridge since they do not stand any chance at ever rising to power? One party state has never worked in any polity and any attempt to impose it on Nigerians will be resisted. Even in Mexico where it was tried it for several years and witnessed the worst official corruption in the history of their country it did not succeed and thrown out by the people recently. The Vincent Ogbulafors of Nigeria should be apprised of the words on the marble of the great American 35th president, John F. Kennedy, who in a 1962 speech at the White House said "those who make peaceful change impossible make a violent revolution inevitable". Vincent Ogbulafor and his fellow co-travellers in this their dream-land of perpetual rule, must be careful not to stretch the tolerance of Nigerians.

The irony of his statement is that these usurpers in PDP were not even elected by Nigerians hence have no real mandate whatsoever to impose their warped will on the rest of the country. Were it that they have the mandate of Nigerians, may be Vincent Ogbulafor could be assumed to be speaking the minds of the people of Nigeria; but the whole world including Nigerians are witnesses to the way these band of fringed-loonies raped democracy in Nigeria under the supervision of Olusegun Obasanjo throughout the last ten years.

For the records, what has Vincent Ogbulafor achieved since he assumed the chairmanship of the PDP? First Olusegun Obasanjo is still the head/chairman of the Board of Trustees of the PDP despite all his rabble-rousing that he is going to implement the Alex Ekwueme panel's recommendation that the way Olusegun Obasanjo assumed the board chairmanship of PDP should be revisited. What has this lucky bastard achieved since assuming office when he cannot persuade the lords of the manor at Abuja to treat the River Niger bridge as a national emergency or is he waiting for its final and total collapse before fire-brigading anything thereon? Or is Vincent Ogbulafor and his party not aware that the dilapidated bridge's lifespan has since expired? What has Vincent Ogbulafor achieved since becoming chairman of the PDP when the Andy Uba generated crisis in Anambra state is still festering? It is instructive to remind our visitors that it is the same Uba family through Chris Uba that kidnapped a seating governor of Anambra state and visited the state with unbridled mayhem without any repercussions whatsoever? Does it mean that Vincent Ogbulafor is a mere ghoulish figure-head chairman without any meaningful authority or power whatsoever? Remember the days of Tony Anenih's chairmanship and how everybody trembled at this feet.
Vincent Ogbulafor, Icheoku says it is this kind of rhetoric that invites the khaki boys back to power, especially when there is no democratic dividends coming from your PDP controlled government to the people of Nigeria. It is this kind of uncontrolled political loose-talk that makes agitation by the disenfranchised majority get so loud that discord sets in in the land. Vincent Ogbulafor, if you must open your wind-pipe this loud, at least make sure that a fair election is allowed to hold in Nigeria and if your party is elected, then and only then can you pretend to be holding the brief of the Nigerian people. Vincent Ogbulafor if you must shout on the mountain top on how you will perpetuate your illegitimate rule on Nigerians, is it not fair that you let Nigerians decide if you are the caliber of people they want to perpetuate in power? How did you even get to the mountain top in the first place or did you rig yourself to the top?
Finally Icheoku says that were Nigeria a real democracy there is no way the PDP would have returned to power in 2007 judging from the ineptitude of their past Olusegun Obasanjo's administration; talk-less of ruling Nigeria for 60 years. Were Nigeria to be a democracy, Olusegun Obasanjo would have since been arrested and tried for all his crimes against humanity, economic treason, massacres of Odi and Zaki-Ibiam communities and his incestuous relationship with his daughter-inlaw - his son's wife! Yet Vincent Ogbulafor continues to allow and/or tolerate this denigrate person, Olusegun Obasanjo to remain his party's board of trustees chairman? Vincent Ogbulafor, our advise to you is to shut up or better still, stop making unguarded statements; leave it to your spokesman who may be better trained to read the polity and know what not to say to upset the apple-cart. Vincent Ogbulafor, you should endeavour to have something written on your epitaph such as the man who finally brought about the second river Niger bridge to fruition otherwise your chairmanship of the PDP means nothing to the zone which you are representing in the party's arrangement. Do something to honor your legacy and stop provoking the people of Nigeria by flaunting a stolen illegitimate "mandate". How dare you suggest that your Peoples "Democratic" Party will rule Nigeria for sixty years? What have you been snorting lately, Mister Nose? Get it?
Mr Loud-mouth shouts again and says 'Only PDP Can Check Military Intervention -Ogbulafor '
