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.

'The best way to keep peace is to be ready to destroy evil. If you Pearl Harbor me, I Nagasaki you.' - Ted Nugent.

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.

PRESIDENT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, IT IS NOW OFFICIAL!

Today January 20th, 2009 is the inauguration day of the 44th
President of the United States of America, Barack Hussein Obama! Icheoku says, thank you America for being very reasonable with your votes last November 4th, 2008; as you voted with your head and not the other end. We believe that all our valued votes will be justified in the sacred trust mandate which we overwhelmingly gave to President Barack Obama.
To our 44th President, Icheoku says, Congratulation on your historic date with destiny, which catapulted you into the White House as the first ever minority to occupy the America seat of power. It was historic as it was miraculous. Your performance during the electioneering campaign was spectacular and you were handsomely rewarded; now is time for you to prove the nay-sayers wrong and show to the enthusiastic voters that they voted right. Also the whole world is waiting for America' rebirth and with your soon to be confirmed Secretary of State Senator Hillary Clinton, you must make haste to tell the world that we are back!

Being the first minority president of America, many people are expecting you to fail just to say "I told you so!" Will you let them beat their chests in triumph? Icheoku says "we don't think so"! We have keenly followed you since your introduction to America by Senator John Kerry in Boston 2004; throughout the Democratic party's primaries and the presidential campaign proper, our eyes were fixated on you. We were encouraged by the way you frontally shot down Reverend Jeremiah Wright's and such other controversies and with dignified grace. We were encouraged also by the way you carried yourself throughout the period under reference, even when you were down and when you were up. Also we are satisfied with the cabinet you have so far put together, admitted we would have preferred a less of the Clintons in it, but we are trusting that your judgment once again, is a right one. So if you preside with the same dexterity you have so far displayed, Icheoku says, your presidency will be one heck of a presidency! Govern, you must, from day one as anything short of it, will be unacceptable to us, the American people! As you already know, there is no second chance for minorities in America, so be our trail-brazing accomplisher!
You must also know that temptations will be abundant, some of them simply to discredit you. They will come in all sizes, all manners, all shapes and all forms, from every direction and subtleties; BUT we shall not accept any excuses from you for succumbing, because you have been warned! Women, drugs, money, favors, bribe, blackmail, etc will all be used to bait you. If in doubt, ask Marion Barry the former Washington DC mayor who was nabbed in a drug-sting operation. If in doubt, ask Governor Blagojevich of your home State of Illinois of his trying to sell your former senate seat! If in doubt, ask Bill Clinton about Monica's blue dress! If in doubt, by clairvoyance ask Richard Nixon about Watergate! If in doubt, by the same means, ask Ronald Reagan about Iran-Contra gate scandal! And the list goes on and on, ad infinitum!
Our consolation is that you have in Michelle a very strong wife and a friend and we pray you keep her closer during your presidency. You cannot afford to fail us as failure is not an option in your presidency. It is totally unimaginable and will not be acceptable to the millions of us, fans and supporters of Barack Obama! Now that we have come out at your urging, our greatest fear is to be forced to recoil back in our shells due to disappointment, so you must provide us with an enduring leadership we can all be proud of. Lead, you must. Your contract with America is fully bonded with an implied undertaking by you to perform, period!

What today means, as well as Americans' and the world's expectation of you cannot be over-emphasised. But at this juncture, Icheoku must pause to thank the following people for their effort at helping you make this day, possible. First is Senator John Kerry for introducing you to America at Boston 2004; your now Vice President Joe Biden for giving that singular testimonial about your character and candor; our Lady Queen of Talk-show Oprah Winfrey for mentioning you on Larry King Live as her preferred candidate of choice to run for the office coupled with her unbridled support throughout your campaign; your lovely wife our First Lady Michelle Obama for her unquenchable support; your campaign’s chief strategist David Axelrod and campaign manager David Plough for the yeo-man's job they did, sailing you through the shark-infested waters of American politics into the White House - both of them were superlative; your soon to be confirmed Secretary of State Hilary Clinton for ironically toughing you up for the success which you achieved. She was your crucible and out of it, you came out the stronger, more solid, battle-tested Barack Obama; and lastly the American people whose audacity to look through the veil of your color to see that you are what the doctor prescribed for America at this time, brought about the reason d'etre of today's celebration! Icheoku says thank you! thank you! thank you! to all of you and adds that B.O.was also a good saleable product!
However, like many people around the world, Icheoku is particularly concerned about your safety, but we take solace in the word of the Lord as ensconced in the book of Psalm 127:1 - that he watches over you! It is the Lord's to protect his loved ones! Icheoku firmly believes that there is a divine hand in what you have accomplished today, all things considered! We pray that HE, the good Lord, will envelope your presidency with his armoured protection. Also we have confidence in our Secret Service who have been protecting our presidents as well as visiting foreign dignitaries all these years and we expect the same for you. Icheoku prays that you will successfully complete your term/s in office to enable you deliver on your campaign promises. You are here to take us to the next level, President Barack Hussein Obama and we cannot wait much longer for your deliverance!

To a leader-president of America, Icheoku says, God's speed! President Barack Hussein Obama, the work ahead is laden but succeed, you shall! Every man and woman of goodwill should please, attend a party today to mark a very important milestone in American history - a black-man is the PRESIDENT! Hail to the chief! Long live the Obamas and may the Almighty God protect your presidency in Jesus name, Amen! God bless America!
