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.

MUHAMMADU BUHARI HAS NO MORE STEAM LEFT IN HIM, SO VOTE GEJ.

Icheoku says in case you have so soon already forgotten and in order to refresh your memory, Muhammadu Buhari campaigned for 35 days and rested in London for 16 days? So it therefore necessary follows that if he should work as an "elected president" for four years (1,456 days), he would have to rest for 666 long days in order to enable him recuperate,  rejuvenate and fully recharge. Icheoku did this calculation not factoring in the very exacting and excruciating toll the presidency takes on its occupant; and so if that is weighted in, the number of his sick and work-free days necessary for him to b rested enough to carry on his duties might even  skyrocket to close to 1000 days? 

So Nigerians do the math and please someone tell Icheoku that some Nigerians would still indeed, actually vote to authorize such truancy and inefficiency in the presidency?  With such so much extended leave of absence, when then would he get the demands of running the state and catering to the needs of the citizenry met? Or is it going to be deja vu Sani Abacha who notoriously woke up by noon, got to the office at 5.00pm and then go to play squash at 7.00pm before retiring for night after dinner at 9.00pm? A society gets the kind of leadership it deserves BUT Icheoku is emphatic that the Nigerian society, as supposedly civilized now than before, can do a whole lot better by choosing her leadership more wisely. Icheoku says a 73 year old grandpa should be discouraged by everyone who loves him from exacting too much pressure on his very weak old heart, trying to figure out the intricacies of running a very complex society like Nigeria. Rather, like his children and grandchildren which majority of the voting electorates are, Nigerians should let him live out his golden age in peace at his country home in Daura, by refusing to punish or suffer him with tasking him with the presidency of Nigeria. Icheoku queries which descent child or grandchild would do that to his or her grandpa, asking him to put too much pressure on his heart at such a very advanced old age. 

Please Nigerians, do not be this uncaring; let grandpa Muhammad Buhari rest. Do not vote for him as that is being too mean and very uncaring and not thoughtful. Do not be a demented, wayward child that would accelerate the departure of the elderly from this planet earth. Please let the elderly take their leave when the good Lord so decides, but never as a result of massive cardiac arrest induced by overbearing pressure of governance. Icheoku is convinced that no right thinking, humane and sane Nigerian, would against every acceptable tenets of the Nigerian society that cares and caters for their elders, force this burden of the presidency on Muhammad Buhari; not at 73 years old otherwise why do people retire at 65years?  So  regardless of all the propaganda and hot air pervading the airwaves in the country about how a 73 year old grandpa is not any ordinary human but has a superhuman energy; does not age or did not age; but is rather roaring to go, just ignore it for what it is  - a mere propaganda that is meant to blindside the gullible. Just take a look at your own immediate vicinity  and figure out how that old pa or grandpa around you is figuring basic things out, talkless of the complexity of governing a country like Nigeria. 

Please Nigerians do not be a party to this perfidy, do it for your love of Buhari, do not burden him with the grueling task of governing Nigeria. Muhammadu Buhari is simply too old  to live up to the challenge and you should not be a party to any sudden interruption to his life as a result. Like Pontius Pilate, please wash your hands off this madness and tell them that your love of Buhari would not allow you do as they want you to. ICHEOKU maintains that Grandpa Buhari is simply not what Nigeria needs at this time, he is simply too old and nearing senility; his time has since came and gone with the wind of yester-years. Today's  digital Nigeria has no place for the analog Buhari, please let him rest and enjoy in peace whatever remains of his sojourn here on earth. So On MARCH 28, vote smart, vote wisely and vote intelligently, VOTE GEJ. GEJ is digital. GEJ is still youthful. GEJ has finished his presidential internship. GEJ now fully understands what needs to be done. GEJ would do better and even more during his second term.  GEJ gives it his all and GEJ will still give it more of his all.
