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.

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.

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.

ENUGU STATE PDP GOVERNORSHIP CANDIDATE, DANGEROUSLY OVERWEIGHT?

Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi

Icheoku says with extra pounds of unneeded flesh in excess of 250lbs and on a frame of less than six feet tall, the Enugu State PDP governorship candidate Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi might be an accident waiting to happen? Icheoku asks is the guy simply waiting to first explode or burst open, before he look at himself in the mirror with his eyes wide open and see that his size is a health emergency seriously knocking on his door? What would it take to sensitize the governor-in-the-waiting to truly understand that excessive weight is an unhealthy life risk and that he needs to declare a life emergency now and do something about his overweight obese condition. Icheoku calls on this guy to go forth and map out a Marshal plans geared towards drastically reducing and shedding off those extra load of flesh which no one needs and definitely not a guy soon to be burdened by the duties of running a state. The candidate needs all the health and lightness of both the head and body to properly function and function optimally too. 

Icheoku does not wish him any harm, but judging by how FAT he is, it is just a matter of time before something very catastrophic happens, either before or after his election as governor of Enugu State in 2015 or anytime soon thereafter? Icheoku is emphatic that the PDP governorship candidate is certainly overweight and there is nothing sexy nor healthy in bearing such extra load of flesh when he could easily do without it. But unfortunately his town criers and people leeching off him will be telling him only things musical to his ears and would be praising him for looking indeed "WELL FED"; but that is besides the point. The fact of the matter is that medical sciences have determined that excessive weight is dangerous and when added to the extra stress that is running a state, might jeopardize the person's life. Ironically too, the guy's pet name is "GBURUGBURU" which literally means "ROUNDLY", and you wonder if a name ever played this type of cruel joke on its bearer. 

Icheoku does not care what his town criers are probably telling him about his weight and deceitfully too; and it also does not matter to Icheoku how much he has made representing the people of his constituency in the National Assembly, but at least he has to be alive and healthy in order to enjoy his life. Moreso, as he is now answering the call for a higher office as soon to be  governor of Enugu State, he needs to smarten up his appearance and personal appeal, not political appeal, by losing some of these excess weight. Icheoku says the people of Enugu State want to enjoy his governance as well as its second term; but would not be happy to have a governor who will be in and out of the hospital or a governor who is battling debilitating diseases or who will fall victim of a sudden heart-attack by reason of being overweight. Icheoku maintains that being obese or over-weight is neither cool nor sexy; and the demands of the office of governor takes a toll on a person and an overweight person will be worse for it. Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey, a "GBURUGBURU" governor in USA, was similarly overweight and was forced to do something about it. 

Furthermore, what type of a moral giver and health advisor would an overweight governor be to the young impressionable people of Enugu State, who will suddenly assume that it is suddenly okay to pack the pounds, after all their governor says so, with his own looks? Icheoku says the health negatives of having excessive weight is legion, including diabetes, gastroenteritis, arrhythmia, organ failure, apnea, lack of quality of life, laziness, clumsiness,   sluggishness, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, hypertension, heart attack as a result of a heart laden with so much pumping-grounds to irrigate that it just can handle it anymore and suddenly packs up. Icheoku will not belabor this issue any further, but hereby urges and calls on Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Enugu State Governor-in-the-waiting, to please loose some weight. If it means gastric bypass surgery, hiring a dietitian, a personal trainer or even doing personal FASTING, just get it done. Whatever it will take will be a good measure and an effort well undertaken; but please get rid of those excess pounds.
