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.

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.

ISRAEL'S PRESIDENT MOSHE KATSAV IS A RAPIST, SAYS THE COURT.

The people of Israel through their court, has affirmed to the world that they had as a president, a man whose libido was so high he rapes women? Their court convicted their former President Moshe Katsav of various sexual offences including rape, indecent assault and sexual harassment of female subordinates; one of who worked as his (sexual)aide until she was fired because according to her complaint, she was tired of being a sexual object for the president. Icheoku says it appears the former president forgot too soon that hell knows no fury like a woman scorned otherwise he should have been more smart going about the dismissal his former sexual mistress. But what is it anyway with men of power and their inability to keep their whiny zipped up inside their pants, from America's President Bill Clinton to the other Jewish former New York governor Elliot Spitzer? Anyway one thing that came out of this conviction is that the law is no respecter of persons in Israel and that every person is equal under the law; unlike in Nigeria where such dalliances are privileged of the men of power and considered sanctified by the victims that till date, no one has yet prosecuted Olusegun Obasanjo for his incestuous liaison with his daughter in-law, Mojisola Olugbenga Obasanjo. It also appears that there is a permissive culture of sexual oppression and exploitation of women amongst some Israeli men which led one commentator to say concerning the guilty verdict of President Katsav, "the verdict delivered a mortal blow to the macho culture that turns women onto an object of despicable sexual exploitation in Israel." Icheoku considers this commentary too hard and very telling on Israeli men, which is now somehow conclusively buttressed with the rape conviction of an Israeli former first man, President Moshe Katsav for series of sexual offenses. It will be recalled that an earlier reached plea bargain was rejected as an unjust protectionist ploy to shield the president from prosecution. Convicted President Katsav, 66, who served as president of Israel from 2000 to 2007 now faces between 4 to 16 years imprisonment, barring any successful appeal of the verdict or a pardon from the authorities. Icheoku says one of the moral lessons taught by this conviction is for men in authorities to control sexual drive while in public office or authority and never to enrage anyone holding them on the balls, especially when that one is a woman! Finally, Icheoku wants to know whether the convicted Israeli president would be required to register as a sexual predator and sex offender upon the completion of his prison term?
