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.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

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.

RESTORE THE REPUTATION OF THE FBI: HOLD JAMES COMEY ACCOUNTABLE.

ICHEOKU says regardless of what the government or the director of the FBI does, the integrity and reputation of the once revered law enforcement bureau will never be fully recovered nor restored without holding James Comey and his band of corrupt former FBI officials accountable. The need to do this has never been more imperative as the present and it will in addition be a deterrent to discourage any such future criminal misbehavior. 

The James Comey's FBI scandal is not only a United States of America exclusive internal affairs matter nor is it only about the victim, President Donald John Trump. No, it is beyond both entities and borders on the world wide reputation of the FBI. How does the FBI continue to enjoy, maintain and sustain its reputation as the premier law enforcement entity which it has enjoyed for over the many years of its existence? How does the FBI reassure the American people as well as its world wide partners that its investigations are not tainted and are products of pure forensic findings, not colored or impacted by personal biases. This cloud of suspicion which now hovers over the FBI must be lifted, speedily and transparently. 

So until done, people will continue to view and look at the FBI with suspicion. Although, he personally orchestrated the witch hunt against a duly elected president of the United States ofAmerica, but it impacted the entire strata of the FBI, being its director. The scandal tarnished the image of the men and women of the bureau, their standing in the society and their world wide fame too, which is now permanently tainted. This few bad apples must not be allowed to ruin it for everybody and destroy the hard won reputation of the bureau, working tirelessly to keep criminals in check. The honor of the 37,000 men and women who serve our nation at the FBI, including those who have already served and those who would likely serve in the future, are at stake. 

James Comey and the few confidants he recruited to help him orchestrate this corruption can be sacrificed in the interest of the 37,000 strong force of the bureau whose reputation are equally under the chopping block as members of the corrupt FBI. So the most efficient way to restore their reputation and the overall reputation of the bureau is to isolate those few of them who participated in the scandal and make an example out of them. Every American is waiting and watching to see how the restoration of confidence in the FBI is carried out and for a rather skeptical American society who are always cynical about the government, the scandal did not improve nor allay their fear of the government. 

This shaken confidence of the America people in one of their government bureaus must also be taken into consideration as the FBI struggles to get their reputation back. It therefore must take punitive action against those perpetrators who carried out the sabotage of the bureau's reputation in order to reassure the American society as well as the honed in world that what James Comey did was an isolated case by a rogue cop gone wild and that such is not prevalent within the bureau and that he acted out of sync and did not represent a pervasive act in the FBI. It is imperative that the FBI restores its image as the world's premier law enforcement agency by assuring everyone that the corruption witnessed under James Comey's leadership of the bureau was not system-wide and that it came with him and left with him. 

Nothing else will qualify and this is not about saving their former boss of shielding him from prosecution. No, he seizes being honorable the moment he descended into the sewer of corruption and no member of the bureau should be proud to identify with him. Instead he should be treated as a pariah who brought disrepute to the bureau and every agent and official should be up in arms against him, demanding that he be made an example out of. What he did is simply incomprehensible and should not be tolerated, no matter how measured or analyzed. Many countries of the world are today in turmoil because of rudderless political leadership who corrupted their law enforcement agencies and now uses them to either perpetuate themselves in power or hunt their opponents into extinction; thus leading to unraveling of society. 

This must also be factored in whatever the current leadership of the bureau and the government in general decide to do towards restoring the bureau's reputation. How then does people know and be convinced that there are not thousands of James Comey within the bureau, if he goes unpunished. Posterity too also demands that a deference be instituted by holding James Comey accountable, including losing his pension like Andrew McCabbe if need be. Simply put, there is no meeting of the grounds anywhere short of putting James Comey in handcuffs to assure American people that indeed, no one is above the law. Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her acolytes cannot be parroting the refrain with the examples of Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton and James Comey still freely traversing the land. 

If ICHEOKU had his way, would also seize whatever proceeds that came from James Comey' "Higher Ground" book of self adoration and merited adulation, as a fruit of illegitimacy.  Such a fella as James Comey should not be allowed to profit from illegality, misleading  and knowingly lying to American people; and also for  causing such untoward  damage to the reputation of America's foremost law enforcement bureau. The Inspector General literary indicted him, except that his assignment did not come criminal indictments. James Comey is a disgrace to the FBI and the American society in whole that such a rogue cop blatancy lied and proclaimed his "innocence" when he knew that he was as guilty as sin. Somebody need to be held accountable for what took place and that person is James Comey,
