KAMARA HARRIS: ANY 'ME TOO' OUTING OF MAYOR WILLIE BROWN?

ICHEOKU says it is a publicly available information that Senator Kamara Devi Harris, the presidential candidate wanna-be of the Democratic Party, had a well known sexual relationship with then married Mayor of San Francisco, Willie Brown. The two were engaged in a romantic affair, which would be considered adulterous, while the mayor was still married to his wife of so many years, which culminated in their divorce. Such a home wrecker now wants to be president of the United States of America and you ask yourself, really? 

Without the love affair, the Senator would not have gotten the necessary leg up in life, which saw her effortlessly break into the clogged up California politics, rising from a young District Attorney of San Francisco to the Attorney General of the State of California and eventually to the United States of America Senator from California, within such a short span in politics. Hers would otherwise have been a case of the present day "Me Too" beneficiary, but to her credit in respecting commitments, she has refused and has not needlessly called out Mayor Willie Brown for "sexually harassing" her. She refused to play the victim as she knew what she wanted and went about getting it; a case of using what she has to get what she wants, a bottom power for political power quid pro quo power play. 

ICHEOKU says appreciates her for not being a hostage taker, who would heartlessly take advantage of the situation to blackmail a man for a dalliance that was rather mutual and voluntary, by alleging undue influence and that she was taken advantage of. Definitely, a  huge credit for her, because she appreciated the fact that her legs up gave her the leg up in life, as her career rocketed off as a result and she is enjoying the fruits of her spread eagle and not whining about Uncle Willie. The good news for her is that the Willie Brown scandal will not cause any damage to her presidential ambition because she is already a politically damaged candidate for a nation-wide election. The country witnessed her during the Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation hearing and concluded not to have anything to do with such an obtuse irritant in their White House. Also her anger and bitterness towards anything President Donald John Trump rubbed American people wrongly and they will never forget nor forgive her in a hurry. 

ICHEOKU says she is definitely photogenic and her smile is as beguiling as that of Barack Obama, who once called her 'the best looking Attorney General'; but she is a serpent, a viper and apparently heartless. She broke a married man's home without giving a hoot's damn about the wife and she took it out on Justice Kavanaugh as well as inferring that border patrol agents are akin to KKK. Her early life lechery was such that many potential suitors were scared away and Mayor Willie Brown eventually ended up not marrying her as well. This left her angry, bitter and unmarried until very late in life in 2014, long pass her youth and when menopause would have probably set in, when a divorce with two kids saw her as an asset and made her a trophy wife. Her being childless and not ever personally experiencing the joy which babies bring, most likely informs her very fiery pro-abortion activism. She is also not black, but like Barack Obama, was a product of racial cross breeding, a hybrid of an Indian mother and a Jamaican father; which informs her always identifying herself as a person of color and not a black American, presupposing that she does not even like being called a black American. 

As a District Attorney in San Francisco, she stopped prosecuting people busted with marijuana, which later facilitated the legalization of the drug in San Francisco as medicinal recreational herb, long before it received a State-wide legalization. So, technically, Kamara Harris was instrumental to marijuana being legalized in California, and just like Governor Gavin Newsom, who as Mayor of San Francisco engineered the homosexual revolution in America by allowing the first gay marriages in San Francisco.  So, Kamara Harris is a revolutionary and that streak still runs deep in her blood which American people have come to witnessed since she joined the Senate. They equally got an eyeful and earful about her warped ideology and philosophy during her recent town hall meet on CNN. 

The good news however is that she stands no chance in hell of securing the nomination  for president of the Democratic Party; and if she does, she will be rejected by the American people as simply too radicalized for the presidency. Like former Governor Moonbeam Gerry Brown, also another radicalized Californian, Kamara Harris will only get an "E" for effort in trying and that will be as far as she will go with her current tall dream of becoming president of the United States of America. She will only end up where she currently is, in the Senate; but never at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue as American people will never elect another minority president, especially not so soon after Barack Obama threatened everything foundational about America. Obama destroyed it for every minority in America because he spooked the white people so badly that they got scared of losing everything; and the experience was too eerie for them to want to relive it. 

Kamara Harris is seen as too wild-eyed, too risky a proposition to be allowed into the White House and will only waste her time gallivanting across the land, but will not ever make it into the White House. A feminist liberal Hillary Clinton's female supporter told ICHEOKU that Kamara Harris stands absolutely zero chance at making it out of the nomination process and might be challenged in her reelection bid for the senate when the time comes in order to curb her excessive ambition. She also went on to say that she personally does not like Kamara Harris and that so many of her colleagues, her Hillary Clinton feminist females loathes her, especially for daring where their Queen failed. She also confessed that it will be a blemish on Hillary Clinton's feminist record for Kamara Harris to reap where she did not sow by first making it to the White House before their revered feminist champion Hillary Clinton.

Kamara Harris is a sworn radical who does not love America and who would rather have America flooded out by illegal immigrants than sign off on building the protective Southern border Wall. Kamara Harris is simply not good for America as she loves illegal immigrants more than Americans and her statements are full of anti American institutions and once called for the banning of ICE and equating border control to the Ku Klux Klan. But President Donald John Trump will walk all over her and make a  minced meat of her should she secure her party's nomination. The president vanquished the Clinton and the Bush political dynasty, so Kamara Harris will only be a piece of cake for him to serve up.

ICHEOKU says Kamara Harris will not be nor mount any serious opposition as she is just basking in the sun of the soon to fizzle out national spotlight. Her fifteen minutes of national fame as that angry colored woman who is seeing red and lashing out, and who wants to give everything away for free to everybody including illegal immigrants, without telling Americans how she will fund the freebies, will soon pass. Luckily enough she has been called out by members of her own Democratic Party on the free stuff as being an untenable ambition and now she is darting her eyes like someone caught with her hands in the cookie jar, thus damaging her ambition beyond redemption; a case of failure to launch one would add. 

Such a fatal error of trying to appeal to the farthest left of the Democratic Party nut-jobs, has cost her the mainstream of her party as well as independents; and thus has driven her presidential ambition into a cul-de-sac from where she cannot back out. ICHEOKU is emphatic that Kamara Devi Harris, the Indian-Jamaican colored woman American, will not  inch close to anywhere near the White House. She might also be challenged for reelection to the Senate and will likely lose her reelection battle, should former Governor Gerry Brown decides to have a go at adding a United States Senator to his resume. California is a machine-politics State and she might be forced to step-down for Gerry Brown to have his moment at Washington DC. But whatever happens, ICHEOKU says will keep an eagle eyes on her foray into presidential electioneering politics, admitted not optimistic of her chances or advancement with the nomination process. However, ICHEOKU agrees with Barack Obama and paraphrasing the former president, says that Kamara Harris is one heck of a Senator good looking, thanks to her Indian heritage. 

JAMES INGRAM: REST IN PEACE.

ICHEOKU says he was simply one of the best of era gone by, the good old seventies and eighties rhythm and blues music time; and yes, he was good indeed. 

James Ingram, 66, died of brain cancer, glioblastoma. May his soulful soul now rest. ICHEOKU says love his "Yah Mo B There" song the most. Adieu Jimmy.

NICOLAS MADURO: TIME'S UP !

ICHEOKU says to the many headaches of former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is now added the United States of America which has thrown its weight behind the interim President Juan Guaido Como. With it comes the freezing out of the $11 billion Venezuelan oil from the world oil market and the readying of 5000 United States Marines who will soon parachute into Caracas to storm the presidential palace and yank Maduro out of there. 

ICHEOKU says it is not a matter of if, but when; as the tale tell signs are everywhere that the days of Nicolas Maduro in Caracas's presidential palace are now measured in weeks but definitely not months. The choice is now his, either to make it out alive as a captured prisoner or assume room temperature in the process; or better still, flee into exile in Moscow now before it is too late. Away with the dictator! 

NANCY FUND THAT WALL

ICHEOKU says NANCY PELOSI: FUND THAT WALL.

PRESIDENT TRUMP ENDS GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN: HE WAS MAGNANIMOUS.

ICHEOKU says the president rose above the fray and in fact came out tops for ending the government shutdown. For the president, it was not all about politics or the need to score some cheap brownie points about who won what or lost what or who caved in or did not cave in. He was also not too proud to yield, if only such gesture will help move the needle., as his objective remains the same, to solve an existing problem. He is a CEO who is rooted in problems solving and who sees the never ending illegal immigration crisis in the Southern border with Mexico, as a problem which needs to be solved and which actually in fact has a proven solution. Once it is fenced off, it will become a problem solved, case finished.

So, you wonder why the other side is not willing to have the problem solved or and the recurring crisis resolved. It does not make sense and it never made sense; nor will it ever in the future somewhat make sense; that there is an existing problem with an apparent proven solution, yet some people are against solving it. ICHEOKU says which side are these Democrats anyway, that want or rather prefer to sustain the recurring illegal immigration problem at the Southern border. Are these democrats real Americans or what, that they should be standing with the enemy instead of with the American people whose lives are constantly being threatened and endangered by this influx of illegal migrants from the Southern border. 

ICHEOKU commends President Donald John Trump for once again taking a courageous step to accommodate the Democrats' request to first agree to reopen the government before they can agree to negotiate the border security including a border Wall. For some shallow anarchists, by doing so, the president caved in to the Democrats as he got nothing in exchange before reopening the government. To this people, ICHEOKU says there is a story of two goats that met each other on a narrow country bridge over a river. None of them would yield the right of way for the other to first pass. They started fighting and butting heads for the right of first passage until they slipped and fell down from their perch, into the river and drowned. An end which could have been otherwise avoided if only one of them had played the proverbial fool and yielded way and allowed the other to first pass before passing itself. Such hidden wisdom would have saved both goats lives, after first successfully crossing the bridge as well. 

So, a time always comes in live when a bigger person had to show some magnanimity and concede a point to a smaller person, as stooping down to listen to a dwarf does not make a giant less taller. President Donald John Trump is the giant here because a dwarf cannot spring up to meet the ears of a giant, but a giant can stoop down to hear the dwarf out and that is exactly what happened here. The Democrats can go on singing and dancing their victory song; but if one thing came out of the government shutdown, it shows that the Democrats are a very mean lot; otherwise where was their hearts in watching their fellow country men and women go for three weeks without money in their pockets, to pay their bills and purchase groceries as well as put food on the table. They held out trying to project strength while their fellow citizens suffered. There is no real strength in such a heartless pose and American people acknowledges the president for being so touched and moved by their pains and suffering that he yielded some ground and reopened the government. 

ICHEOKU is emphatic that there is definitely a case to be made about having a border Wall in the Southern border with Mexico. If for nothing else, it will surely make the work of the border patrol agents much easier, as those illegal immigrants will be corralled to a lawful entry point where they can be legally processed;  instead of having to chase them down through a stretch of thousands of miles of a border. Like sheep and the shepherd in the plains, with shepherd dog helping to direct the flock into the pen, so shall the border Wall help funnel those illegal immigrants to the lawful entry points. A Wall will also encourage sensible migration and be more efficient in controlling migration; as resources which otherwise will be dissipated and stretched thin along the thousands of border miles, can now be more efficiently deployed as at need basis and that way result in an overall enhanced policing of the border. 

Even drones and spotters flying around and spotting the thousands of illegals will be concentrated in areas without border Walls and that way become much better utilized, with increased yield. There is no argument that border Wall works, as has been established and proved beyond doubt in numerous occasions, with reduced immigration in areas with border Walls or barriers. Also, many immigrants have been captured on video trying to scale through a barrier, but failed. Yes, border Wall will not stop all illegal immigrations, but at least it will drastically reduce them to tolerable numbers, which is the primary objective of every laws and regulations, including ones against homicides. Just get it down to acceptable numbers and it is problem solved. 

The president has shown and exhibited his big heart in honestly seeking a solution to an existing problem, by demonstrating that it was not about his ego or self interest and not afraid to take a beaten and blow back from his seeming u-turn.  But his sole interest is that the problem at the Southern border be solved and he has expressed his willingness to have it solved. The president, by agreeing to reopen the government has demonstrated that he is ready, willing and able to solve the problem and have it permanently resolved. To this end, he had made so many concessions in order to meet the Democrats demands and show good faith in the entire process. The president made concessions on DACA and other ancillary technological approach to border security; he also agreed not to give a State of the Union address to the nation while the government shutdown lasted; and now he has also agreed to first reopen the government to jumpstart the negotiation. 

Now, the ball is on the Democrats' court and hopefully they can now take steps to negotiate and let the president solve the Southern border problem by building the promised border WALL Meanwhile Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi can start the goodwill building by reinventing the president to deliver the State of the Union address as earlier agreed on for the January 29th, 2019. ICHEOKU says well done Mr President for not being too proud to accommodate the Democrat's requests, seeing that American people are hurting by the government continued shutdown. It is a demonstrable willingness on the president's part to negotiate a settlement on building the border Wall. ICHEOKU is convinced that the president has satisfied every reasonable American that he meant well and he will eventually  get the funds to build that Wall. ICHEOKU says Nancy Pelosi, #FUNDTHATWALL.

JUAN GUAIDO COMO: VENEZUELA'S INTERIM PRESIDENT SWORN IN.

ICHEOKU says opposition leader and a Barack Obama's look alike, Juan Guaido Como, was sworn in as interim president of Venezuela and was immediately recognized by President Donald John Trump and other Latin American countries; effectively ending the rule of the soon to be former President Maduro, whose only choice now is to take the next flight out of Caracas to Moscow for asylum/exile; or face a forcibly eviction from the presidential palace by parachuting American Marines. 

At 35 years, Como is the stuff revolutionaries are made of - youthful, courageous and exhibits great oratory prowess. ICHEOKU says congratulations to the peoples power of Venezuelans that facilitated his ascension into office and hopefully Maduro will allow a peaceful transition by surrendering his mandate and seek a safe passage out of the country, short of bloodletting and eventual long term imprisonment in America. Once again, peoples power prevailed.

OCASIO-CORTEZ ECLIPSING PELOSI: WHEN WILL THE CAT FIGHT BEGIN?

ICHEOKU says before too long it will happen, as women know how not to allow each other steal the shine off them or take them out of the spotlight. Old lady Madam Speaker will definitely not allow the newbie Ocasio-Cortez to eclipse her shine in the Congress, not as long as she remains Madam Speaker with power to do and undo. 

It will be only a matter of time and the continuing media interest in Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, before Nancy Pelosi shows her who is the boss, the real deal in the Congress. But until then, it will seem that the House of Representatives now has a new bride, the darling of everyone, regardless their reason, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. 

The Congresswoman from the State of New York is the new chic on the bloc and everyone in Washington DC knows it; as every gaddam person in the media is now swooning to get a date with her. What a whirlwind of a media blitz it has been for her within the last few weeks. A gift that keeps on giving for any politician, such that so many of her colleagues are dying for a minuscule of the attention being showered on her and will soon start getting jealous of her and with it comes the Satanic envy. 

Every where you turn, every channel you change to and every newspaper and magazine you rifle through, as well as radio, it is the same refrain, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; and you wonder when will the honeymoon be finally over, if ever. It is America and Americans are usually giddily excited with new things, novelties, especially such a storied tale of an American dream come through. A Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who went from her waitressing job in a bar, to becoming an elected member of the United States of American Congress; the youngest person ever elected to Congress that is, and within her very first time foray into politics as a candidate for any office. ICHEOKU says what a feat.

Like President Donald John Trump like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as both non career politicians struck Americans like a thunderbolt and with it shook the establishment order of politics. They invited themselves to the power party and took the center table and are unapologetic about it too. They breached every protocol of climbing the ladder of political power structure and defied the otherwise known conventional reprimand of "wait for your turn" which is usually associated with politics and did the unthinkable, displaced career politicians. Both, now have the bulls-eye tattooed on their backs, as career politicians and the establishment politicians see their accomplishments as a slight to everything they hold sacred in politics and they will be angling to take their pound of flesh and bring both of them down in a banging flash. 

It will only get nastier and messier as both Trump and Ocasio-Cortez continue to get the publicity and attract the following which has made them the two most popular politicians in America, if not the entire planet earth. Thus begging the question, for how long will Madam Speaker tolerate having the spotlight taken away from her and put up with being displaced in the media by this newbie, her epicurean perch as the most powerful woman in politics in America, considered. ICHEOKU vouchsafes, not for too long and when she strikes, it is going to be venomously poisonous. 

But until that death bite, ICHEOKU is hopped on the ride, as Americans are staying tuned to the saga of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and hopefully will watch her redefine the Democratic Party and remake it in her own image. So far so good, as she is succeeding and her entertaining value is phenomenal too. She is definitely a breath of fresh air to the swampy old gang, some of who has been in Washington DC long before the 29 year old Alexandria was even born. She is a millennial original and her fellow Utopian dreamers are attached, attracted to both her message and her image. But Nancy Pelosi is definitely not finding it funny, both being displaced from the center page and having to share the spotlight with ACO. ICHEOKU says cannot wait for the showdown between Nancy Pelosi and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to begin, even right at this minute. It will be fun to watch them go at each other, clawing and hair-pulling, included. ICHEOKU says Nancy, please move over as Alexandria is here. 

PRINCE PHILIP: TOO OLD TO DRIVE, YANK THE KEYS AWAY.

ICHEOKU says at 97, stubbornly still driving and causing accidents, somebody should intervene and order His Majesty to stop, before he causes more damage. It shouldn't take until he eventually kills somebody or even kills himself in an accident, before the authorities in Britain will tell the prince that his good days behind wheels are since over; and that he should allow somebody to help him get around as he lives out his twilight years. 

Prevention is better than cure and there is no means of bringing back the dead to life. The intervention must be NOW as tomorrow might be too late. He escaped this time and so were his victims; but he or his next victims might not be as lucky tomorrow. Somebody does not have to first die or be irreparably injured before Prince Philip realizes that his days behind the wheels is no longer good for the public, as well as to himself. He must allow people who still can and who still have all their faculties intact to do the driving while he relaxes and enjoy the ride as a chauffeured dignitary. 

If he must drive, a driving stimulator should be acquired for him, so that he can be driving a stationary vehicle, but not one venturing unto public roads, with its attendant risks of exposing the pubic to great dangers to both their lives and limbs. Prince Philip is now an existential danger to people on the road and his nuisance must be abated before it results in fatalities. He must accept that everything in life has a shelf span and that his days are nearing their end and learn to live out the final years of his life in peace as he awaits the inevitable end of all mortals. If it means the Queen intervening to save her Prince and her subjects from foreseeable harm, so be it; but let somebody take those keys away from the prince before it is too late. ICHEOKU says yank the keys away from his hand and do it NOW.

BE CAREFUL NANCY - PRESIDENT TRUMP.

ICHEOKU says he or as in this case, she, who lives in a glass house does not throw stones. Her husband is a defense contractor who does a lot of contracts with the Defense Department, Pentagon, and the squeeze could be put on him. A woman whose homes are all walled off and gated, but is pretending as if walls don't matter; protected and shielded, that even in the part of San Francisco where one of her homes is located, Pacific Heights, is not suffering the blight of homelessness and drugs of downtown San Francisco and you wonder how selfish anyone could be. 

People are dying, drugs are pouring in, communities are being overrun, jobs are getting scarce for certain tiers of the society, including reduced wages and decreased income, because of illegal immigrants who are ready to do the same job for pennies on the dollar; yet Madam Speaker does not see the problem of illegal immigration. Worse still, the same jobs previously available at living wages to blacks and other minorities are what Shylock companies and other cutthroat individuals are now handing over to these illegal immigrants and making out like bandits, from savings which they would have otherwise paid to Americans under minimum wage law. 

The worst scandal of it all is that some black members of the Congress are incohoot in this madness which affects the black communities most disproportionately; as jobs which previously brought home the bacon are no longer available at a living wage, outbid by illegals who have no strings in America but are just in America to see what they can grab and run. It is very unfortunate and it is further choking off black Americans earning potentials, leading to increase in the problem of absentee fathers who could not find livable wage jobs with which to support their families. 

ICHEOKU says agrees with President Donald John Trump that Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi is behaving so irrationally not to see the damage which illegal immigration is causing; and by calling the Wall immoral, has gone so far to the left that she has now officially become a Radical Democrat. It is true, that Nancy Pelosi is so petrified of the 'lefties' in her party, led by Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, that she has lost control of the party, her power now held hostage to the crazies who have taken over the Democratic Party. Very SAD and pitiful. #FUNDTHATWALL.

NANCY AND CHUCK: TOO SCARED TO NEGOTIATE

 

ICHEOKU says they are afraid of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and wont bulge or negotiate. #FUNDTHEWALL and do it NOW!

SOUTHERN BORDER WALL: DEMOCRATIC LEADERS ARE BEING HELD HOSTAGE.

ICHEOKU says it is finished for the leaders of the Democratic Party Charles Schumer and Nancy Pelosi as they are now being held hostage, maximally boxed in by the enfant-terrible and apparently the new face of the Democratic Party, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She will not allow Chuck and Nancy to bulge or meaningfully negotiate an end to the government shutdown, by authorizing funds for the Southern border Wall. 

Afraid that she will engineer a primary against them, these Democratic Party leaders have become almost nearly as unreasonable as this their far left anarchist colleague by not negotiating an end to the government shutdown; and you wonder how could Nancy Pelosi or Charles Schumer ever lose elections in San Francisco and New York respectively. What happened to their sense of negotiation and why are they beholden to this little rascal freshie Congresswoman from New York; and allowing her to dominate the conversation. Where are their deterrent against such nuisance who is trying to turn the Congress into a kindergartener's playhouse or are they going to just surrender without a fight and capitulate to this wild eyed, crazed out, woman from New York Congressional District 6,  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. 

ICHEOKU says where is the mojo of Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Minority Leader Charles Schumer that the fear of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is now their greatest Achilles heels. How will anything else ever get done in America with such polarization, just because they fear being primary(ed) by Ocasio-Cortez's led group of lunatic leftists. If they don't let President Donald John Trump deliver on his biggest campaign promise, how do they expect the president to ever allow them to deliver on their own campaign promises, since everything will pass through the president's desk for his signature before they can become law. President Barack Obama's signature Obamacare was ramrodded through, but President Donald John Trump's signature Wall is being blocked? It does not make sense and it should be condemned by every American, regardless of party or political ideology and leaning. 

Elections do matter and there are natural consequences flowing from every election, including signature projects campaigned on by candidates, which are always allowed to come to fruition. The Democratic Party is definitely setting a bad precedent by stonewalling on the president's border Wall. Just like the Supreme Court, which they ended its filibuster proof, has now come to bite them, the refusal to negotiate with an elected president over his core campaign issue, will someday be remembered and they will be the one left holding the plate and at the tip of the business end of the spear. ICHEOKU says common sense should prevail and let both parties meet each other half way and end the government shutdown on terms equitable to each side.  The Democratic party's leaders, if indeed they want to live up to their title, should not allow Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to dictate terms to them; afterall they are her leader and many of them have been in the Congress long before Ocasio-Cortez was even conceived. 

By not negotiating, these leaders are showing excessive weakness, deferring to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in this manner. She can only become more emboldened to carry on with her rascality, seeing that it pays, with increased demands for more. She will continue with her nauseating behavior until she finally pushes these leaders aside and personally assumes the mantle of leadership of Democratic Party, both in the Congress as well as the entire United States of America. Ocasio-Cortez is like the shrub in the Little House of Horror movie, which got used to drinking blood that it became addicted to the crimson fluid and made unending demands for it on the shop owner. A cancerous growth is not fed with regular supply of blood; rather it is choked off blood supply to wither away and die. ICHEOKU says if Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not checkmated right now, the Democratic Party will live to regret their mistake in allowing this impetuous woman, with such childish antics, ruin it all for them all. 

The time to start clipping her wing is now, as tomorrow will only make her grow stronger; and the best way to start is to ignore her threats and sincerely enter into negotiation to reopen the government and for the southern border Wall. It is the right thing to do as American people deserves better and also, a protected and secured Southern border. The president is not saying to completely wall off America southern border; but that areas where constant violations of American immigration laws are carried out be checkmated and to direct all entrants to the legal entry points. ICHEOKU laments that the Democrats, by holding steadfastly to their position, are only encouraging the illegal migration as more immigrants, sensing the division in government, will continue to head up North. The tide of flow will never ebb nor stop; not as long as they have a friend in the Democratic Party who are encouraging this flagrant violation of the United States of America immigration laws.

ICHEOKU calls on Nancy Pelosi and Charles Schumer to end the stalemate now; enough of the theatre of absurdity, a desire to appear and be seen and perceived as being strong. Enter a meaningful honest negotiation to resolve the issue and reopen the government and do it NOW as America and American people are suffering. Think of America's perception by the rest of the world and think about those who have lost their lives in the hands of illegal immigrants; and of course think about the hundreds of thousands who are not being paid and they have bills to pay as well as family to feed. Please check the excessive egos and do it for these, especially for the American people. Get the negotiations to end the government shutdown going immediately and of course authorize the funds for the Southern border Wall. #FUNDTHEWALL.

NANCY PELOSI: WHO IS YOUR DADDY?

ICHEOKU says Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi now knows who is the real boss as her planned 7 days junket around the world of Switzerland, Belgium, Egypt and Afghanistan has been stopped by President Donald John Trump, irked by Nancy's impetuosity. 

She will not authorize $5 billion for the Southern border Wall; she will not negotiate a solution to the immigration crisis; she will not agree to end the government shutdown and she denied the president his scheduled January 29th, 2019 State of the Union address venue. 

ICHEOKU says she started the fight and the president is only finishing it for her; now lets see how everything finally gets resolved. Nancy Pelosi is being held hostage by the farthest left wing of the Democratic Party led by Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and she is deathly afraid of the crazed out New York freshie. Too bad.

NIGERIAN ELECTION CAMPAIGN 2019: ATIKU VISITS AND ICHEOKU RESTS.

ICHEOKU says pledged earlier that the day Abubakar Atiku travels to the United States of America and returns safely back to Nigeria, without being arrested by the FBI, ICHEOKU will back off from pointing the searchlight on him and allow the two Fulani brothers to battle it out in the coming February 16th, 2019 presidential election. What Olusegun Obasanjo started, ICHEOKU was prepared to finish, but circumstances have now intervened to pull the plug. ICHEOKU intends to keep his word as every receptacle person is expected to do and will now honor his commitment to cease and desist from any further Atiku expose`. 

ICHEOKU will not even wait for Atiku to first complete the mission by returning back to Nigeria before performing his own part of the bargain. Therefore ICHEOKU says from today, January 17th, 2019, will no longer criticize Abubakar Atiku; and in fact, barring any major situation-altering development, will completely stay out of the political fray until Election Day, February 16th, 2019, when congratulatory message will be sent to the victorious party. ICHEOKU says has no dog in the fight nor beef with anyone, only that Nigerians make informed decision and vote right. 

Whoever allowed the grotesque display of a town-hall meet, watched globally on January 15th, 2019, which assaulted eyes and insulted intellects, did President Muhammadu Buhari a very big disservice and disfavor. It was so bad that the other politician parties do not need any further campaign advertorials, but to just keep on running the performance on television and radio. The body language was awful; and the heavily labored effort at comprehending issues and rendering "answers" was simply ghoulish. It was literary so embarrassing that it served to push the president off and over the cliff's edge. If the president was dead, the performance dug his grave, lowered him into the earth and covered his corpse with a mound of dirt. 

It was indeed very hard to watch and too pitiful to see. The world cringed, watching  a real life human caricature that was barely hanging in there unto life, so heavily medicated with morphine and steroids that he could pass for a dead man talking. A zombie president, a talking dead and soliloquizing mummified president; and you wonder how functional his neurons still are, talkless of effectively running the affairs of Nigeria. He was incoherent, he was inaudible, he was incomprehensible, he was inarticulate and in fact he was unaware of his sense of self. ICHEOKU says President Muhammadu Buhari, literary does not have a sound mind anymore and should be declared incapacitated by reason of a debilitating sickness which has rendered him vegetated. He was lost in oblivion and was indeed a pitiful spectacle to behold, that whoever was responsible for putting him on television deserves to be fired since yesterday. 

ICHEOKU says the Buhari that was seen on television is definitely not the same Buhari that ran and won election in 2015. While ICHEOKU is not ascribing to the needless distraction of a fantastical Jubril el Sudani, but maintains that the treatment which Buhari received in London did not work. Rather, it messed up with his faculties and turned him into a ghoulish figure, the ghost of his former self. The original Buhari is no more and what remains now is but a ghost of his former self and ghosts belong in the realm and not in Aso Rock. It was indeed bizarre and so unsightly to sore eyes, that even good eyes popped wide open in bewilderment and great unbelief, that this is the apparition who is running the affairs of Nigeria. 

ICHEOKU says gleaned from sources that the living-dead, mechanical display witnessed, which was seen globally, finally forced the issue and made the White House to sign off on the lifeless one and green-lighted the Atiku's visit, by guaranteeing his safe trip. However, this is not to say that Atiku did nothing wrong nor had a pending case, but that the greater good of avoiding a catastrophic humanitarian crisis in Africa's most populous nation weighed heavily in the mind of Washington DC; and they decided on a waiver instead. It was overall, a well considered trade off. 

Anyway, ICHEOKU will not waste any further time on the nitty-gritty of what transpired that preceded Atiku's undisturbed arrival to America, nor will in anyway seek to diminish its significance as a very big boost to Atiku's presidential quest. It is now time to leave what is written on a vehicle and just enter the vehicle, because if you pay attention to how sausages are made, eating sausages might become too difficult to do. The FBI red carpet reception was a serious issue and it dogged every of his step until now that the fog has been lifted and finally dissipated with this visit. It was on the strength of it, because it was true, that ICHEOKU had always said that Atiku will "NEVER" be elected president of Nigeria. This Washington DC visit is definitely another case where "Never say Never" is quite apposite. 

Be that as it may, unlike APC, ICHEOKU keeps his words, as honorable people do or at least expected to do. ICHEOKU's word is his bond. ICHEOKU says watched Rotimi Amaechi's secret video and have also closely followed Buhari's activities since he returned back to Nigeria following his long hospitalization in London; but nothing ever raised more concern and alarmed ICHEOKU so much as his gothic town-hall meet. It definitely served as the last straw to break the resistance and the Washington DC trip capped it off. ICHEOKU says was working on so many articles and had planned them through till the February 16th, but they are now moot; as the effigy, scarecrow, mechanical tin man display was indeed so overwhelming, that it will amount to being unconscionable not to call it out. 

However, this is not ICHEOKU's endorsement of anyone, but that a pledge made be kept. Hopefully, the new promises now being made by the candidates will be kept and that Nigerians will finally find the elusive succor this time around. There was nothing personal with what went down and nobody hired nor paid ICHEOKU for it; just that ICHEOKU wishes motherland the best possible outcome from its legion of challenges, especially its recurring decimal that is ineptitude leadership. Also there is nothing for ICHEOKU to apologize for as conscience and truthfully speaking guided the effort, hence no previously made post will be taken down; as the made pledge was subsequent his visit to America. 

Whatever happens, just be minded that every moment of the banters, although sometimes highly charged and very passionate, were indeed deeply treasured. ICHEOKU could not have wished for anything more and will do it all over again in a heartbeat faced with similar circumstances. On a parting note, please just remember to be guarded, as none of the two Fulani brother's victory is worth your losing your live or limb or even incarceration. Be smart in going about it. ICHEOKU wishes Nigerians a crisis free election 2019 and says may the electorates' verdict prevail IJN. So until Election Day February 16th, 2019, this is ICHEOKU signing off from election campaign 2019. All the best folks. One love.  So long fellas. Salute

ATIKU: THE DEVIL IS A LIAR.

ICHEOKU says decisions made out of desperation is often fatal, because Satan is an opportunist who lays in wait and lurks for your hour of greatest need to strike. It waits for your greatest vulnerability, during which time ANYTHING will suffice. If you are thirsty, it waits until you are completely parched and nearly losing consciousness before he offers you vinegar. If you are hungry, it will first turn you into a Somalian refugee with birds of prey tagging along every foot you put forward, waiting for your carcass to finally give up the ghost and drop, before it offers you a morsel. And remember at such a near death out of body experience junction, it will be strictly on its own terms; just like the Chinese are doing in Africa with their Greek Gift "INVESTMENTS". 

Abubakar Atiku has the mastery of the serpent and made his current gamble based on his calculation that Nigerians are desperately seeking an out from the bonehead in Aso Rock. As a result he made Obasanjo an offer which Obasanjo could not refuse to purchase Obasanjo's severally, previously denied forgiveness. Then he decamped to the PDP and pulled every last stop to purchase their presidential ticket, despite not being so entitled as a returnee grasshopper politician. Now, every one of his investment is paying off as Nigerians have been stupefied by the noise into seemingly forgetting who they are dealing with; but they will be sorry if he successfully hoodwinks them into letting him into Aso Rock. 

Atiku is a calculating, cold bloodied villain, who is cashing in on Nigerians desperation for a change to secure a position which he was severally denied; including in 2007 when Obasanjo bypassed him for Umaru Yar'Adua and again in 2011 when Obasanjo stood on his way in order for Jonathan to win. Like snakes which usually strike in darkness, when the victim is helplessly shortsighted, Abubakar Atiku is about springing on Nigerians, cashing in on their anguish against the other guy in Aso Rock. Atiku is fully aware that but for the despondency of the now, that he does not stand a chance in hell with Nigerian electorates, hence he must strike when Nigerians are forlornly without much option. Atiku is a predatory animal, ready to pounce due to the vulnerability of the prey, Nigerians who are desperately seeking an out from Buhari. 

ICHEOKU says just ask a guy who was forced to marry a girl because he knocked her up; or a woman who had to marry out of desperation of running out her biological clock. A two complete no, no; as marrying out of sympathy or desperation is the surest way to audition for life in real hell or as Andy would put it, "Living in Bondage." But should Nigerians fall prey to Atiku, the cobra? ICHEOKU says does not think so, as the closest hour to dawn is usually the darkest; and the last miles of a marathon are always the hardest to run. Perseverance is the key, admitted Buhari has not been the president any thinking society would have otherwise imposed on themselves; but the Atiku poisonous apple is not an option, because no data or indices support that it will amount to anything of value to Nigerians. 

Other than America, the world economy is bleak and dithering and Nigeria is not an exception and will not be magically transformed, the vacuous promises of "Get Nigeria working again" notwithstanding. Even if Atiku intends to build 1000 refineries, at least it takes a few years to complete them. Even if he wants to build 1000 car manufacturing plants, it will also take a few years to complete them. So, let nobody be deceived that Atiku will overnight pull a magic wand and abracadabra Nigerians problems away. It will not happen and there is no need raising anyone's expectations to a point of suffering rude shock. The unfolding situation calls for curbing one's enthusiasm and taking things in perspective. Like a chic you want to lay, you brainwash her until she spreads; and that is exactly what Atiku is doing to gullible Nigerians, who now think with their stomach and hearts, instead of engaging their cerebral cortex. 

Nothing good or better will ever come out of the Atikumania or Atikulooted whirlwind, because whenever it sounds too good to be true, run to the hills. Atiku is a deceiver and Adam has not recovered from his chic's flirting with the original deceiver in chief, the serpent. Please do not be burnt by Atiku because Atiku will burn you. 

ICHEOKU is just a messenger with a sixth sense and the foreboding is inspired by experience, guided by informed calculus. ICHEOKU prays that Nigerians can persevere for the next four years and punt into something entirely new, different, promising and in short exhilarating. But this Atiku thing is neither the way forward nor the answer to the Nigeria question. If the bait is bitten, it will hurt so badly that Nigerians would wish that three Buharis had remained in office instead. 1 Kings 12:11 is very instructive. May God help us all reason the situation better and remember, NO PAIN, NO GAIN. Salute.

OBASANJO: A VILE AND EVIL NARCISSISTIC MEGALOMANIAC WHO HATES NIGERIANS.

ICHEOKU says for far too long have Nigerians been crying about bad governance, but for the same far too long have they refused to do what is necessary to enthrone good governance. They want to Make Nigeria Great, but lack the fire in their belly to get it done. They will not choose leaders who still dream big dreams and who share in their common aspiration. Leaders, who are highly motivated; driven individuals who can put their skin in the game and re-engineer a new Nigeria. A Nigeria, which is both functional and fair; and which works for everyone. A Nigeria, where every Nigerian can feel at home, as co-equal stakeholders in the Nigeria project.

Each time an opportunity for a reboot and reset of direction of the country presents itself and for Nigerians to indeed take their country back as real influencers in how their affairs are managed, they always saunter and flounder. They watch helplessly as the same group of degenerates, many of who belong in the cemeteries and nursing/convalescing homes, who kept them shackled down, hogtied in a servile bondage, hijack the presented opportunity and continue to maintain their stranglehold over them. As a result, they make choices of leaders under the influence of this absurdity, suggestive of a people who are not deeply troubled nor unbearably discomforted by their situation and desperately wants out. 

Just ask yourself, if Nigerians really want a change in the direction of their country, why then do they always revert to the same demented person/s, who led them into their dire situation. Short of being afflicted with the battered person's syndrome, which makes people perpetually attracted to their abusers, nothing else makes sense nor justifies Nigerians, always choosing the type of leaders which they choose. Why go back to the same swamp of old and tired leaders, to dredge up one of them, believing that such a cosmetic change is good enough. A sure definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result. 

As a result, election never produces any leadership of value, hence nothing ever changes as the same bunch of heartless goons are recycled. It thus becomes impossible to install a functional government which can correct the ills afflicting the society, which has kept Nigeria stunted, mediocre and underachieving. Their decision, regrettably, is not usually out of their free volition, but largely influenced by tombs-raiding goblins who are nearing their graves and who have no real interest in passing a functioning Nigeria to their successors. Why Nigerians listen to these voices of perdition which put them in their dire strait is beyond any rational comprehension.

For instance, why should Nigerians listen to Obasanjo for guidance and direction going into the Election 2019, when they are still suffering the consequences of their having listened to him during the last Election 2015. Any thinking society would have reviewed his previous guidance and weighed its beneficial impact on them against the backdrop of his latest attempt at intervening in their political process and advised themselves more appropriately. This imperative would have required Nigerians to say, "Wait a minute, if this man knew what he is talking about, why is it that he got it so wrong the last time?" 

But for Obasanjo, there will be no Buhari in Aso Rock today for Nigerians to worry about his removal. So, why do Nigerians still accord any political relevance to a man who assessed Buhari as being "Educated enough to be president" and also still holds such a man  highly as an expert, good character reader and/or judge of presidential candidates, when Buhari turned out hopelessly this way. 

Obasanjo has led Nigerians astray for far too long and continuing till this day. He has also perfected his joy-riding of Nigerians so much that he now does it so effortlessly, that some numbskull Nigerians are buying into this his latest ''Project Make Atiku President 2019", a sure testament to their vulnerability. How any sane person could be pushing for the presidency of a man who is so flawed in character as Abubakar Atiku is indeed simply unimaginable. But it is Obasanjo and with him, anything that profits him is good business, regardless of its reprehensibility. 

ICHEOKU says if there is one person who could be held responsible for all the woes of Nigerians, it is Olusegun Obasanjo. Yes, you heard ICHEOKU right, Olusegun Obasanjo is the Grinch who permanently stole Nigerians' Christmas. Just review the stewardship of Olusegun Obasanjo since 1975 when he first came to power following the assassination of Muritala Mohammed and you will agree with ICHEOKU that everything that ever went wrong with Nigeria had Obasanjo's signature to it. They were either his direct order/act or are somewhat traceable to him, both as a leader and/or a statesman. 

A matter made worse because Obasanjo pretends to be a Christian but does not live by the Christian ethos nor behaves in a Christ-like manner. ICHEOKU says Lucifer must have made a deputy for himself but failed or forgot or in fact deliberately refused to warn Nigerians where he sent him. It is also self evident that Obasanjo does not read the Bible either, and if he does, suffered a similar fate as in Acts 8:30, otherwise he would not have been oblivious of Matthew 7:9-10 and would have advised his actions more appropriately. 

A very sanctimonious Pharisee of our time, who deliberately chose to ignore his previous warnings about Atiku and now wants to delude himself that Nigerians did not hear him then or are too imbecilic to remember. Obasanjo is probably capitalizing on Nigerians' notorious penchant for forgetfulness, their fabled amnesia, in now painting an entirely different picture of the same man who he once warned Nigerians to stay away from. 

Query, if you are an employer and a surety tells you not to hire a potential employee  because he is a thief and based on the reference, you did not hire the thief job seeker. If subsequently, another position opens up in your business and the same surety now asks you to hire the same previously unemployable thief job seeker, what will you do? How would you react or won't you at least, for due diligence, want to find out from the surety what changed with the former unemployable thief, who suddenly is now no longer a thief and employable. Why would you now rely and act on the words of the same surety, who previously counseled against employing the job seeker, but is now urging you to risk it all. 

Needless to add that Obasanjo's "do or die" presidency was the bloodiest ever recorded in the annals of Nigeria's history of blood letting by the State. Obasanjo hurt more Nigerians than any other leader, past or present and possibly even future, if not the totality of them put together. So, why do Nigerians still allow Obasanjo to remain their guiding compass or does Obasanjo have a hypnotic spell on Nigerians which interferes with their rational thought process? Are Nigerians too confounded and attention-span deficient, not to remember what happened in their recent past, that such a deviant is still allowed to drive the political football in Nigeria leading up to the February 16th, 2019 election, after his past 2015 action which ushered Buhari into power. 

That Nigerians are still looking up to this man for direction and guidance, in matters involving their collective destiny, is in fact the greatest scandal in the life of Nigerians. How can Nigerians still seek directions from Obasanjo when his previous direction led then into the cul-de-sac of despondency in which they are currently mired, lost and confused.  

If Obasanjo led Nigerians for about 12 years officially, and for another 30 years unofficially, of his constantly meddling and directing other leaders on how to lead Nigeria, and Nigeria is still in a parlous state, doesn't common sense dictate that it is about time Nigerians did some serious introspection and moved away from Obasanjo. Shouldn't a thinking society, since taken stock and assessed how well they have fared following Obasanjo and then find a different way out of the woods in which Obasanjo led them into. 

Why would a society that wants to thrive not move away from a man whose dictates thus far, had not improved their lot and look for a completely new director of their affairs, going forward. If Nigeria is still so stagnated as to elicit the unflattering moniker, a "shithole" country, where then is Obasanjo's continuing relevance in the affairs of Nigeria; or better still, why is Obasanjo not taking full responsibility or being held accountable for running Nigeria aground

When has failure become something to celebrate by a society, admitted the Nigerian society is a very peculiar one, judging by the criminality and mediocrity which they usually honor and celebrate; including incompetent creeps which they frequently put forward as their leaders. ICHEOKU says will like to know what earned Obasanjo the right to determine who rules Nigeria or is Nigeria now Obasanjo's private estate and an entity within his Ota Farms Holding PLC. If only Chinua Achebe was not right and Nigeria is indeed a country, especially one which holds her transgressors accountable for their misdeeds, ICHEOKU is confident that Obasanjo would have since died a rotten prisoner of the State. 

Why do Nigerians always reward their traducers instead of holding them accountable; and are once again in the cusp of rewarding yet another one of them, with the presidency of the country, just because Obasanjo said so. Although, it will NEVER happen, but the fact that such an idea is even being entertained by some Nigerians, is by itself, dishearteningly idiotic. Yet, tomorrow, they will turn around to complain that the country is being run down and that things are not moving in the right direction. Yet they keep on electing mediocrities as leaders and in a country so richly blessed with so many first class materials, who know what needs to be done in order to turn the fortunes of the country around and for the better. 

The most disheartening thing about the current Obasanjo's manipulative antics is that he was the person who gave Nigerians the man presently in Aso Rock, who he now wants removed and replaced. It was just 46 months ago that Obasanjo told Nigerians that "Buhari was educated enough to be be president", despite knowing to the contrary. So, what changed, Nigerians? ICHEOKU says would not have had any qualms about replacing any non performing president, except that the man who Obasanjo wants to replace Buhari, is just another Buhari with a different name, if not a worse version Buhari 3.0. 

If Obasanjo meant well with his desire to replace an incompetent, non performing, old, illiterate, Fulani president, why in the world did Obasanjo settle for yet another old, illiterate, Fulani candidate, who has no records to run on or to show as evidence of his competence and ability to perform. Why did Obasanjo not chose any of the overachieving, youthful, highly energetic, well educated and obviously supremely qualified candidates including Kingsley Moghalu, Oby Ezekwesili, Gbenga Hashim, Donald Duke, Hamisu Santuraki or even Obadiah Mailafia, the candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), which Obasanjo's Coalition of Nigeria Movement (CNM) adopted for the Election 2019? 

Any of this candidate is miles ahead in both competence and qualification than the two leading Fulani candidates. But no, Obasanjo would rather replace an unqualified and incompetent slow-man, with an also unqualified and incompetent thief-man; just because as far as Obasanjo is concerned, only either of them is good enough for Nigeria.

How can a supposed "PhD" defend this decision to support a man, who he previously called a thief and described as not fit for any office in Nigeria. What logic, no matter how flawed, could back up such unmitigated disaster of a decision. ICHEOKU says not even the then strongman of Ibadan, Lamidi Ariyibi Adedibu, would have condescended this so low.  

How can Olusegun Obasanjo single-handily forgive Abubakar Atiku of all his sins, administer an absolution on him, rehabilitate him and now tell Nigerians to elect him president? How can Obasanjo tell Nigerians to hand over the keys to their commonwealth to such a publicly named and shamed thief of State. How can Obasanjo look Nigerians in the eyes and defend this his illogical and irreconcilable decision to support Abubakar Atiku's campaign for the presidency of Nigeria, his earlier statements against Atiku considered?

But just for the sake of advancing the argument and given that forgiveness is divine, how is it Obasanjo's prerogative to forgive Atiku for stealing money which does not belong to Obasanjo, but to the people of Nigeria. Why did Obasanjo arrogate to himself the preeminent owner of Nigeria who knows what is good for Nigerians, that he should preside over the forgiveness of Atiku's thieving-sins, without first consulting with Nigerians. Why should it be Obasanjo's place to forgave Atiku and not the people of Nigeria, whose money Atiku stole? 

It is the height of impetuous disdain for Obasanjo to ask Nigerians to accept his forgiveness of Atiku and adopt it as theirs by voting for his now "forgiven" thief for president. Where was Atiku's penitence and penance; and was the money which Atiku stole from Nigerians returned in atonement for his thieving-sins, as any truly repentant and contrite transgressor is expected and required to do. What in fact purchased Obasanjo's absolution of Atiku? 

How can Obasanjo accuse Atiku of being a thief and turn around to say that he has forgiven Atiku and wants Nigerians to now vote for the same former thief-Atiku, but without first telling Nigerians what happened to the money which the thief-Atiku stole. Obasanjo even went further to write a book, MY WATCH, where he referred to Abubakar Atiku as the worst crook Nigeria has ever produced and the worst misfortune which ever befell Nigeria and that Nigeria was cursed to have produced Atiku. Yet, he now wants the same man to be president. ICHEOKU says regrettably, something is not adding up here. 

How can this cyborg be manipulating Nigerians in this manner and so effortlessly? Why are Nigerians not demanding that Obasanjo explain to them what made him to swallow his vomit and forced his u-turn on Atiku. If Atiku was such a good person and worthy of the honor of being a trusted custodian of Nigeria's treasury, why did Obasanjo not hand power over to him in 2007. Instead, Obasanjo chose Umaru Yar'Adua and after him, Goodluck Jonathan; all in an effort to prevent Atiku from ever nearing Nigeria's treasury. So what suddenly changed now, Nigerians? Please put on your thinking hats before it is too late.

Obasanjo is an elder, whose words should mean something and not be so easily trivialized. Obasanjo's conscience should not be dictated and driven by circumstances; and he should mean what he say and say what he means. If Obasasjo called Atiku a thief and mimeographed it in a book, MY WATCH, why then does anybody still think that Atiku is not a thief? If Atiku is not a thief, why has he not sued Obasanjo for slander and defamation, or forced Obasanjo to retract and recant the statement and apologize to him for besmirching his character and permanently damaging his reputation. A damage so bad, that generations yet unborn will someday read "MY WATCH" to learn that Nigeria once had a Vice President named Abubakar Atiku, who is a thief and who had the shameless audacity to even seek the presidency of the country. 

Where is the logic in the juxtaposition that in one breath, a man is a thief and in another whiff, the same thief miraculously morphed into a saintly monk, sworn to oath of poverty and can now be entrusted with the country's finances. Nigerians, please tell Obasanjo that you are smarter than he gives you credit for, because people do not change, at least not at such an advanced old age as Atiku. Nigerians similarly thought that Buhari had changed when they voted for him in 2015, only to later find out how far they had miscalculated. Why suffer the same misjudgment twice? It is not wise and it does not bode well for a society seeking redemption from its past too many disastrous mistakes. 

A matter made worse because Obasanjo did not tell Nigerians what necessary safeguards he will put in place to prevent Atiku's kleptomaniac instincts and uncontrollable impulses towards Nigeria's resources. Who will keep an eye on Atiku to make sure that he does not loot Nigeria into bankruptcy or worse still, auction the country off to the Chinese, in a deal of perpetual indebtedness and eventual hostile takeover of the country. Who will watch the watchman. Why are Nigerians listening to Obasanjo without first asking themselves what made Obasanjo to make a sudden u-turn about a man he previously characterized as a thief and not good for Nigeria.     

ICHEOKU says Aremu Matthew Kikiola Olusegun Obasanjo is the worst thing that ever happened to Nigeria since the hellish 1904 amalgamation of Nigeria. Whatever Obasanjo touched always ended in a disastrous tale of woes and Obasanjo created the rudderless Nigeria that is adrift and continuously threatening to capsize. 

Obasanjo also introduced the macabre Bar Beach show were hastily condemned individuals were tied at the stake and shot to death, cheered on by a crowd which did not know any better about the sanctity of human lives. 

ICHEOKU says but for tainted Viagra poisoning of Abacha, the Obasanjo nuisance would have since been abated. A man who refused to appreciate God's merciful hand in his life, who stubbornly remained an impertinent and unrepentant resident evil of Nigeria. It was the same Obasanjo, who, instead of being on the right side of history, joined forces with the enemies of Nigeria to scuttle the election of MKO Abiola president of Nigeria. Obasanjo  was heard in South Africa saying that Abiola was not the Messiah who Nigerians were expecting and therefore aborting his presidency was not a big deal. Yet this is the guy Nigerians are heeding his counsel?

Just take a look at the many blood letting and agony which Obasanjo midwifed in Nigeria:- the genocidal civil war which claimed nearly 5 million Biafrans' lives; the failed military coup of Colonel Buka Suka Dimka which triggered reprisal massacre of hundreds of Middle Belt top military officers; Odi Bayelsa massacre in which thousands were murdered; Zaki Ibiam Benue State massacre with thousands dead; thousands of Bakassi Nigerians who Obasanjo banished from their rightful country of origin and against their will into Cameroon; another 20,000 Nigerians who perished in a bomb explosion at an Army base in Ikeja. 

Attorney General and Minister of Justice of Nigeria Bola Ige and so many other prominent and un-prominent Nigerians were also collateral damage of his misrule, victims of the State under Obasanjo's watch. Then add the then frequently occurring plane "crashes" which claimed hundreds of Nigerian lives and which many people, including Babangida, suspected was another means of taking out personal enemies of Obasanjo and his government, which suddenly ended with his leaving office, which somewhat sustains the suspicion of his complicity and culpability in the murder by plane crashes. 

The tragedy of the situation in Nigeria today is that Nigerians seem to have forgotten who bequeathed them with the Dracula of Daura. They are angry at the man in Aso Rock, but not angry at the man or rather men, Obasanjo and Atiku, who facilitated Buhari's ascension to power in 2015. How can any Nigerian be mad at President Muhammadu Buhari for accepting a presidency which was handed over to him and it was not as if he staged a coup, like in 1983, and forcibly seized power. He was voted into power. But for Obasanjo and Atiku's sabotage of Jonathan's reelection bid, President Muhammadu Buhari would not be anywhere near Aso Rock today. Yet Nigerians are trying to reward this two evil men who gave them Buhari and who technically, are responsible for the dire situation in the country today, where Nigerians found themselves weeping and gnashing their teeth.

What will it take to finally awaken the consciousness of Nigerians to see the evil incarnate that is Obasanjo, the man who destroyed their collective destiny. Even Matthew 7:9-11 is very instructive that Obasanjo does not mean well for Nigerians, otherwise why would it be Abubakar Atiku that Obasanjo is championing his presidential candidacy. How can any decent person, especially one who parades himself as a leader, be advocating for a man who he repeatedly called a thief and swore an oath that it is over his dead body that Atiku will be elected president. Recall his fabled "I DEY LAUGH O" remark.  

ICHEOKU says there is something inherently wrong with Obasanjo and the odious mindset which finds his repulsive antics worthy. Were Nigeria a decent society, Obasanjo would have since been held accountable for his crimes against humanity, of the people who call Nigeria home. There is nothing good about a man of a very advanced old age, still fermenting trouble in Nigeria and threatening to take Nigeria down with him to his grave. 

As a president, Obasanjo never tolerated any opposition and hounded all of them into the grave or to a graveyard silence. Obasanjo also rigged every election conducted during his presidency, that even a beneficiary of one of such rigging, Umaru Yar'Adua, had to apologize to Nigerians for the election rigging that brought him into Aso Rock. But look who is now running around the real estate of Nigeria and hollering like a rhesus monkey about Armageddon should President Muhammadu Buhari win a reelection. Obasanjo is lucky that ICHEOKU is not in occupation of Aso Rock, otherwise what Abacha started with him would have since been completed and the heavens will not fall. What a pitiful sociopath and psychopath who once accused Jonathan of importing snipers to kill 1000 Nigerians and is again at his game of manipulating Nigerians and they are paying him  attention?

Indeed a psychiatric evaluation of Obasanjo would be in order, because not even Hannibal Lectern was this brazenly callous. ICHEOKU maintains that Olusegun Obasanjo is a despicable degenerate, who does not deserve his epicurean perch within the Nigerian society and should therefore be shunned and avoided like a leper. But are Nigerians even listening, otherwise which loving father, according to Matthew 7:10, will give his son a scorpion just because he asked for a fish. If Nigerians are tired of Buhari, why must it be Atiku that Obasanjo considers the only good enough choice for his replacement. Nigerians, please reject Obasanjo and his thief-Atiku, as their 1999 to 2007 draconian governance is still too fresh in the memory, to pretend it never happened. For the good of Nigeria, please ignore Obasanjo and SAY NO TO ATIKU because Atiku is NOT GOOD FOR NIGERIA.
