Their bombs are still going off; Nigerians are still dying on the streets being blown away by these murderous Islamic thugs and street urchins; and now they seem to have scored a major victory with the forced indefinite closure of the 36 year old University of Maiduguri. Today, Boko Haram, which means "Western education is bad for you," would be toasting this closure as a victory in their plan to eradicate western education in Nigeria; which by necessary implication, has been given a direct boost by such thoughtless action of the government. The rush to close this university is cowardly and wrongful; as any government really worth its salt would rather beef up security in the university; at least to say to Boko Haram, no we cannot grant you, your wish by closing a Western-education impacting institution. But regrettably, just as Ibrahim Babangida recently said, it appears that President Jonathan does not think through his decisions before carrying them out and seems to have ordered this closure in his usual panic mode. Icheoku says to President Goodluck Ebelesimi Jonathan, do not aid the enemy or provide comfort to their psyche, reopen University of Maiduguri immediately and right NOW; just send a battalion there to beef up the security!

Christy 'Apena' Essien-Igbokwe , the wife of Jegede Shokoya of the New Masquerade and Nigeria's lady of songs is dead; she was 51years old. Although her family claimed that "brief Illness" killed her like so many Nigerians; Icheoku retorts that it was most likely AKwa Ibom voodoo and remote control that was used to arrest her. It is on record that she had fallen out with the governor of her native Akwa Ibiom State and have been having a relentless war for political turf with the governor? So who knows whether she was sacrificed to Ekpe cult or even Alusi-Okija as an offal; afterall African science is still very much alive and portent. May her soul rest in peace.
