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.

JUST THE FACT.

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.

DAVID MARK, A THIEF?

What a Robin Hood! He stole with one hand and now, with the other is giving back, part of what used to belong to Nigeria, to his community of Oturkpo, Benue State, Nigeria. He just handed over a multimillion Naira complex to the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) to serve as a study centre in Otukpo, Benue State. The Complex include an information and computer technology center, a laboratory centre, lecture theatres, an auditorium, staff rooms and some recreational facilities. The Project manager of the center Ojay Iyanya, stated that to date, Sixty(60) million Naira has been spent on the center which was solely financed by the President of the Senate, David Alechenu Bonaventure Mark!
Icheoku says, this makes the Nigerian Senate President, David Mark, a criminal, a fraudster, a looter and a thief? Where did he get the money from? Were Nigeria to be a corruption-free, civilized society, this midget of Oturkpo would be in prison for the massive fraud he perpetrated as a Minister of Communication in Nigeria, during the Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida reign of terror. He made stupendous wealth then, which he spread around in several banks and investments overseas, with three of the accounts allegedly at the Northern Bank, Isle of Man and another one at the Allied Irish Bank, Jersey with several others yet to be tracked down. These four named accounts at one time were joint repository of six (6) million British Pounds Sterling belonging to David Mark!

It was during his time as Communications Minister that this criminal, who now heads the Nigerian Senate, brazenly dipped his itchy fingers and hands into the Nigeria pie, big time. David Mark brokered a non-executed seventy-seven ($77) million dollar “telecommunications" contract on behalf of Nigeria Telecommunication company (NITEL) and also procured a refurbished aircraft for NITEL at an outlandishly over-inflated price. It was with part of "profits" he made from these deals, that David Mark bought the £5.9 pounds 18-hole St. Margaret’s Golf Course & Club in Dublin Ireland, just a five- minute away drive from the Dublin International Airport. Several other pay to play deals in NITEL flourished very well under David Mark leadership; and the last twelve ($12) million dollars SIEMENS bribery scandal involving yet another senator, Jubril Aminu, gives an insight into the type of cash-cow NITEL was, which David Mark milked dry but is now dead! David Mark also bought a private house worth £2.5 million pounds Sterling on Kingston upon the Thames River in London. Virtually all of David Mark's children of very polygamous marriage life-style attend schools in Europe; yet he is a Christan judging by his name, for whom the one man one wife injunction does not make sense, just like Olusegun Obasanjo? David Mark met and married one of his wives in Ghana while on the run from Sani Abacha's henchmen for the massive looting he committed at NITEL. It is on record that David Mark remained on his self-imposed, massive theft-induced exile from 1993 until 1998 when Sani Abacha died. Till date, David Mark still maintains massive investments in Ghana, the Caribbean, USA, Europe as well as additional hefty bank accounts in Switzerland, Cayman Islands and Jersey. And this is the caliber of man shamelessly leading the Nigerian Senate?

David Mark is now playing Father Christmas by donating a learning center at Oturkpo, Benue State, Nigeria! From where did he get the money, since it is on record that while growing up that his family was dirt-poor? Icheoku remembers vividly according to the accounts, that at one time before being cajoled into joining the military, his father could hardly afford to pay for his regular school fees, which automatically removes him from the genre of a trust-fund kid? As a military officer, how much was his emolument? And today, as a "Senator" and a "Senate President", how much is his take-home pay? Only one thing explains the unexplainable, David Mark is very corrupt!

Icheoku says, Nigeria's problem is intractable and will remain so until Nigerians, as a people, stop celebrating criminality. David Mark is one such criminal who ordinarily should be cooling off in a prison somewhere, far removed from decent society; but being a Nigerian, he is not only a senator and a senate president but is openly laundering Nigerian looted money back to the country in the form of a sixty (60) million Naira learning center in Oturkpo, Benue State Nigeria! What a morbid philanthropist, David Mark is? Icheoku is not impressed with this assumed generosity and says, this will only encourage more looting by officials of state in Nigeria. These official-thieves will just have to wait it out, knowing that some day not too far in the future, they will be celebrated by a people who have no scruples for criminality in a land of anything goes! Icheoku says, shame on you David Alechenu Bonaventure Mark, for your theft at NITEL cannot be washed away by your bloody donation of a leaning center! Instead you should stuff it in your, you know where?
