ICHEOKU says what does Indonesia need submarines for. Who are their rivals in their archipelago neck of the wood that they want to spar with underwater? Are they planning on taking on China by firing missiles from under water into Beijing? Why do they need submarines in addition to other water going surface vessels which are not as risky to operate as submarines.
But like people, some countries too sometimes have their priorities screwed up big time. Now they have sent 53 of their Naval personnels to their early watery graves and it was an otherwise avoidable human toll. Before asking Germany to build them the 44 year old submarine KRI Nanggala-402, didn't they also ask them how to ensure that it performs its maneuvers safely, diving and rising from deep waters without any glitches. Why is the old submarine still ocean worthy and it was recently refitted in South Korea and you wonder why they did not send it back to Germany, the builders, to do the refitting. Anyway, may the souls of the now presumed dead seamen now rest. It is sad.

Christy 'Apena' Essien-Igbokwe , the wife of Jegede Shokoya of the New Masquerade and Nigeria's lady of songs is dead; she was 51years old. Although her family claimed that "brief Illness" killed her like so many Nigerians; Icheoku retorts that it was most likely AKwa Ibom voodoo and remote control that was used to arrest her. It is on record that she had fallen out with the governor of her native Akwa Ibiom State and have been having a relentless war for political turf with the governor? So who knows whether she was sacrificed to Ekpe cult or even Alusi-Okija as an offal; afterall African science is still very much alive and portent. May her soul rest in peace.
