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

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.

USA 2008 ELECTIONS: - THE FINAL EPILOGUE!

Our job is done! We are happy! American are happy! The whole world is happy that America got it right this time! President-elect Barack Obama is now the president in the waiting of the United States of America! Icheoku will now pivot to other issues of political and social concern to us and which matters to world. We are not saying that we shall no longer comment on President Barack Obama or the American elections and/or his future government; no, all that we are saying is that we are making room for other issues and will no longer spend the greater part of our coverage on the United States of America elections!
As we write our final epilogue of the historical election, Icheoku will take a look at what produced the outcome. Senator John McCain was gracious in defeat and had since indicated that he will do whatever is asked of him to assist Barack Obama govern. It is a widely accepted premise that Senator John McCain's loss was primarily because of the 'wild-eyed Alaskan Moose-hunter' Sarah 'the' Palin he chose as his running mate. A beauty and no brain hockey-mom who can see Russia from Alaska as her only foreign policy experience. The same blood-hound who said that Africa is a country with South Africa as the capital! The same eye-winking 'whore of Alaska' who believed that the great flood took place in Grand Canyon! The same Sarah 'Jezebel' Palin who said under no circumstance should a woman get medical procedure for her pregnancy even where she was raped or made pregnant by her father! Needless to say that her seventeen year old teenage daughter is pregnant out of wedlock under her watch? Anyway, Senator John McCain brought it upon himself by choosing such an air-head as his vice presidential candidate. Icheoku had earlier commented that her choice was an insult on American women for in the midst of the many so highly qualified women of America, it was such an ordinary low-level intelligentsia, Sarah Palin that Senator John McCain decided upon!
Also contributory to Senator John McCain's loss were those racist right-wing talk-radio jerks Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Bill O'Reily and Lou Dobbs whose inflammatory bigotry over-reached themselves during this election cycle. They painted their candidate Senator John McCain, in the eyes of decent Americans, as an extreme right-winger, having not disassociated himself from their full-throttle all cylinders support. By keeping silent in the face of their vituperation, Senator John McCain tacitly approved of this their discredited, divisive and corrosive campaign antics hence was perceived as a corroborator by the American people. Having lost his credibility, honor and candour, his straight-talk express acquired a new acronym, crooked-talk express and that was the final boom to descend on his moribund campaign. Senator John McCain's also sold his soul to the devil when he failed to coral his campaign away from giving false information on then Senator Barack Obama's very limited contacts with Bill Ayers.
The rest is now history and Icheoku wishes our dear Grandpa Senator John McCain the best of luck in his future endeavors. As for the future plans of Alaskan Moose-killer Sarah 'the' Palin, she need to consult her Kenyan 'marabout' pastor who foretold her governorship of Alaska to once again, foretell her future! But until then, she should stay in the wild Alaska and not bother the lower forty-eight until she is fully 'refined' in the ways of a civilized modern society. Sarah hunter Palin views are too scary and fundamentalistic that she is been designated an American Taliban!

As for President-elect Barack Obama, all that could be said in his honor has been said and any other attempt will be to belabor the obvious. Icheoku now wishes the newly elected president of America, God's guidance and protection as he now prepares to tackle the gargantuan task of governing America and by extension, the world.
Grandpa Senator John McCain and his alien-looking wife, Cindy McCain should now look for another hobby to pursue, while nursing their pain at the denial by the good people of America, of their application for the eighth mansion, the White-house! Icheoku says to the McCains, seven mansions are more than enough!

Icheoku now officially conclude our very special and extended coverage of the United States of America 2008 elections, particularly that of our endorsed presidential candidate, now president-elect Senator Barack Obama. However we shall keep an eye on his governance to ensure that he follows through with his campaign promises and will report to you accordingly. So remain a loyal visitor as we now tackle other issues affecting our collective social and political challenges of our time. Thank you for being there for us!
