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.

FIFA'S BLATTER FINALLY DOES THE MOST SENSIBLE THING, GOOD RIDDANCE.


Icheoku's most favorite television channel is National Geography, especially when they bring into our living rooms, the real life situation of wild animals in Africa's Serengeti National Wildlife, the Mara River Wildebeest annual migration and such shows of other 'top-dog' animals of the vast plains and jungles of Africa. Icheoku affirms that were humanity to trade places with these jungle dwellers, the United States of America will certainly be lions, the king of the jungle. Like the lions which are not afraid of any animals, the United States of America is not afraid of anybody. Like the lions which take on and take down any animal they determinedly want to, regardless of size or famed viciousness, be it elephant, giraffe, water buffalo, hyena etc - just name it, the United States of America takes on and takes down any person or country that detrimentally mixed things up for them. So like the lions which are not afraid of making a go at it of anything, the United States of America similarly does not and have now trained their eyes on Sepp Blatter. Icheoku says unfortunately for Sepp Blatter, the end can only go one way - Sepp Blatter is going down  and Sepp Blatter will go down hard. 
So when Icheoku opined just a few days ago, precisely on May 31st that Sepp Blatter can and should still resign regardless of having won a reelection as FIFA president, Icheoku made this call based on some analytical data that what America wants, America usually gets; and even if it takes moving the mountain or going to the end of the earth to have their way, America always so do. When the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with its nearly infinite resources, announced that FIFA officials are being indicted for corruption, Icheoku concluded that, summarily, brings the reign of Sepp Blatter to an end. From historical perspective, there is no way the Department of Justice will be investigating Sepp Blatter's underlings for corruption without him being their main target. The DOJ are merely trying to first sweep away the little shrubs around before making their way to the big iroko. As is usual with their modus operandi, they will turn the little guys against their boss - get the little guys, make a deal with them and make them rat against their big boss. 
This is exactly where the investigation is now finally headed, the arrest and indictment and trial of Sepp Blatter for corruption. So query, how can a boss of FIFA who has been in charge of the organization since 1998, a total of eighteen years, not be aware that such gross corruption as saw 150 million dollars exchange hands took place in the organization? Icheoku says it is either he is a partaker of the criminality or he is an incompetent buffoon who did not know what was going on in a place he is supposed to be in charge of and should therefore be held liable for gross negligence and incompetence, regardless. A crime usually can be either a commission or an omission, especially where one is in authority such as a FIFA president over FIFA. But Icheoku is not buying and refuses to buy into the bullcrap claim of innocence by Sepp Blatter and it seems, neither does America too. So having smelt blood in the water, the Department of Justice, it would appear, are now dizzying for the final kill.  
Sepp Blatter, in short, instituted the corruption sleaze that is suffocating the FIFA and this is the only reason he always wins every election or rather coronation as president of the body since ascending the throne of FIFA in 1998. The other buzzards around him knew the kind of money they are making with him as the helmsman, so why would they disturb the gravy train that keep on churning by taking a chance with electing a total outsider to come and disturb their fun? As Icheoku called on our two previous articles, we again repeat, that a total outsider, the proverbial stranger who did not know that a king named Joseph once ruled the land, is the best person needed at this moment to sanitize the rot that is FIFA. Such a no nonsense seasoned administrator should come to FIFA, armed with a meat cleaver not a surgical scalpel, and do the needful in order to salvage FIFA. FIFA needs a new lease of life an in order to save a FIFA that is currently on life's support. Icheoku therefore says it is good for the mankind of soccer (football) that the face of FIFA and its bottomless sewer of corruption, Sepp Blatter, finally got the message and is now on his way out; which of course is the only possible outcome of his current debacle of presiding over a corruption infested FIFA. Good riddance.
