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.

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

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.

TUNDE BAKARE, A CLERGY ASKS UMARU YARADUA TO RESIGN!

Nigeria's Umaru Yar'Adua is very sick and so should quit his office as the "illegitimate" president of Nigeria, so advised a clergy man, Pastor Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly, Lagos-Nigeria. Pastor Bakare said that Umaru Yar'Adua should thereafter go take take care of his failing health, stating that a sick "president" cannot provide healing to an ailing nation.

The man of God prayed God to swiftly intervene in the matter of Umaru Yar'Adua, through the Nigerian Supreme Court, that they may over-rule his purported election and throw him out of office immediately. This way, Umaru Yar'Adua's nuisance of a president can be washed away in order for a dynamic leader to be enthroned in Nigeria for a purposeful leadership of the country.
Pastor Bakare who spoke at the end of a three-day apostolic conference hosted by Realm of Glory International Church, said that the president has made his health the number one priority at the expense of the entire Nigeria nation. According to Pastor Bakare, Umaru Yar'Adua has not helped himself - there's too much hide and seek in his administration. Right now we don't even know what is wrong with our 'president' other than he's sick and receiving treatment. Nobody can say what's wrong. The same thing has applied to the way he operates within government. There's now oath of secrecy to ban anybody from saying anything. And he came in as a servant-leader but now has become an overlord asking us to beg from him instead of him accounting to us. It is now very difficult to analyze the Umaru Yar'Adua's situation in order to award marks. It does not appear that even his purported seven-points agenda was conceived by him. I am seeing the disposition of a man who was begged to become President, who prior to being forced to become president, had already prepared himself to go back to the classroom before Olusegun Obasanjo sold us the idea and we swallowed it hook, line and sinker. I've told him over and over again; a sick 'president' cannot bring healing to a dying nation."
The cleric further pointed out that becoming a Nigerian President is neither a birthright nor hereditary to a certain part of the country, adding that being a President requires a lot of energy, a lot of thinking, a lot of capabilities, not only from your team but yourself primarily. You have to be on top of your game. Umaru Yar'Adua's failing health does not permit such abilities and hence he should resign the office of the presidency immediately. Umaru Yar'Adua can simply say to Nigerians gentlemen and women, my health cannot permit me to continue with the rigours of the office of the presidency so I will step down for the Vice President and if you do not want him, then the Senate President can hold forth until elections are called to fill my position.
Icheokudotcom commends the bravery of this one honest Nigerian in speaking out the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. God bless his heart! If only there are a few other good men and women like Pastor Tunde Bakare remaining in Nigeria, the distraction of a very sick man, Umaru Yar'Adua would have since been a thing of the past. Unfortunately, Nigeria is populated by a bunch of very hungry knee-jerk plebeians whose brains are permanently tied to their stomachs - they only speak through the emptiness or fullness of their stomach, hence anybody is good and tolerable that butters their bread. We at Icheokudotcom has been calling without ceasing on this mallam from Kastina State to go back to where he comes from and continue his fight to stay alive from there; and not to be so selfish as to continue to hold Nigeria, hostage to his failing health.

For speaking out in the face of the pervading criminal public silence and acquiescence in Nigeria regarding the very sick Umaru Yar'Adua, and adding your strong voice to a thing which time has since become due - that Umaru Yar'Adua should resign his office, Icheokudotcom, hereby proclaims you, Pastor Tunde Bakare, a true patriotic and honest Nigerian, who pangs at the stagnation of Nigeria by the crippling health of Umaru Yar'Adua! It shall be well with you and henceforth, consider us your portal - we are fans to all descent men and women. Men and women of your integrity is what is missing in Nigeria. Let us say 'AMEN' to your prayer that the Nigerian Supreme court will soon save the day for Nigerians!
