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.

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.

UMARU YAR'ADUA: - HOW LONG ARE HIS DAYS?


Nigeria's de-facto "president" is gravely ill! Umaru Yar'Adua is dying! Yar'Adua is dying of an undisclosed illness which has virtually taken the life out of him. Umaru is but a living ghost - a deadman walking! How much longer he will walk this earth is anybody's guess and your guess is as good as mine - not much longer barring a divine miracle! His state of health does not look good!

Anybody in doubt of how serious the illness afflicting this weakling from Katsina State is; a very sick-man imposed on Nigeria by Babalawo Aremu Olusegun Obasanjo as their "president", should take a good look at this newly obtained 'very recent' picture of the mallam. What do you see but a man starring aimlessly into a blank, black and bleak future, much of which he does not have left. Look at his skin discoloration! Look at his body's scarred pigmentation. Look at his sunken eyes. Icheoku says, the general verdict is that Umaru Yar'Adua is gravely ill! But why he has not resigned to concentrate on the fight for his dear life is quite astonishing or must he be carried out in a gurney?
This man who was a conspirator to the criminal perfidy of Babalawo Aremu Olusegun Obasanjo-led hijacking of the Nigeria polity does not necessarily evoke much sympathy from many Nigerians. Umaru Yar'Adua is seen as a collaborator in the thwarting of the peoples' wish for a true and lasting democracy. Umaru Yar'Adua made his body available for the cabals to use to truncate democracy and hence is as guilty as Olusegun Obasanjo and his other cohorts for turning democracy as we know it on its head! Icheoku says, were he honorable, he would have conducted a fresh election, knowing the fraudulent manner he was smuggled unto Nigerians as their illegitimate president. Why did he not disqualify himself or annul the "selection" which imposed him willy-nilly on Nigerians and instead conduct a fresh election? Was he not the one who gave Bakassi away, yet he is enjoying an office which he did not merit nor won! Was he not the one who cancelled Ajaokuta Steel contracts yet he cannot find merit in cancelling his own "selection" which every person in the world condemned as a charade. Anyway may be, before too long there will be a divine intervention that Nigeria may finally be rescued from these cabals who have held her hostage since her independence 48years ago!
Umaru Yaradua, Icheoku calls on you to resign your office today and face your health situation which is rapidly deteriorating (pictures do not tell lies) - nothing should be more important to you than your health! Should you pass on while still yoked to your office, you will not continue to remain president so why not cut your losses and leave now that you may still have a fighting chnace? You still have a life to fight with or are you of a gambler's mentality of all or nothing? Either way it does not look good Umaru!
