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.

JUST THE FACT.

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.

ANOTHER NORTHERN IGP: A TOTAL SNUB OF NDIGBO SOUTHEAST BY MUHAMMADU BUHARI.

ICHEOKU says now that Muhammadu Buhari has made it categorically clear that Ndigbo Southeast has no inheritance in the house of Buhari administration; having incontrovertibly proved himself as an Igbo hating Fulani irredentist, it is time Ndigbo paid him back in his own coin by denouncing him completely as a leprous outcast himself. Ndigbo Southeast should end further cooperation with his administration and maintain that coldness towards him until he serves out his term or dies, which ever one comes first. Muhammadu Buhari has a cold heart of steel and his hatred of Ndigbo Southeast is irredeemably beyond repair, so Ndigbo should stop even trying to make him love them because he is incapable of showing affection for people who are not of his Fulani stork and worse still, Ndigbo Southeast. 

His hatred for Ndigbo did not start today but began in 1966 when some Nigerian army officers carried out a military coup which was later branded an Igbo coup just to wipe out Igbo officers in the military. He was involved in the Nigerian war of attrition against Biafrans which claimed over 3 million Biafran lives principally orchestrated through starvation and attendant diseases. He followed it up with a military coup in December 1983 when he locked up an Igbo Vice President but put the Fulani president in a cozy house arrest. He also refused to support an Igbo man who was vying for Secretary of the then Organization of African Unity and instead saw to the successful election of his fellow contestant, a member of Buhari's Fulani stork from neighboring Niger Republic. And then he became president in 2015 and his hatred for Ndigbo went to stratospherically heights. 

Now, he has completely dashed any hope of making amends for all his past storied anti Ndigbo disposition with his appointment of yet another Northern Inspector General of Police, a position which was expected to go to an Igbo person due to the lopsidedness of his previous appointments which completely marginalized and kept Ndigbo out. He appointed five security chiefs without even one Igbo person among them and in a country where Ndigbo is more than one third of the population. But Ndigbo remained ever optimistic that he will redress the imbalance when he appoints a new Inspector General of Police, which he has now done but still chose another Northerner instead. So, by his latest action he has confirmed beyond every shadow of doubt that he detests Ndigbo and does not want to have anything to do with them or maintain any relationship with them whatsoever. 

He has proved once again that he will take his hatred for Ndigbo to hell when he eventually succumbs to the vagaries of old age. Ndigbo should let him know in unmistakable terms that they have accepted his gauntlet and acknowledge that they now fully understand that there is no love lost between him and Ndigbo. Ndigbo should endeavor to return his hatred back to him in kind as hate cancels hate just like fire quenches fire. He is not useful to Ndigbo and should not be treated with any more respect going forward. He should be completely ignored and scorned throughout the remainder of his term in office and waited out with much derision. There is no more use of respecting or cajoling him as nothing ever productive and beneficial to Ndigbo have come from all the past respects. Even some of his orders should be ignored where possible and welcoming him or any of his agents in the Southeast should be completely tabooed going forward. 

In short, a strong message should be sent to Aso Rock denouncing Muhammadu Buhari's asinine hatred of Ndigbo, a major component part of Nigeria. If he could afford to not recognize Ndigbo as bona fide Nigerians, then Ndigbo should return the favor by also not recognizing him as a bona fide president of Nigeria. He is busy building railway lines to Niger Republic but none for Igbo land; ditto road constructions, refineries and other industries. He has neglected Southeast since he came into office and has completely ostracized Ndigbo from his government; so Ndigbo should ostracize him too from their lives in return favor. Enough of all the love shown to Muhammadu Buhari by Ndigbo which he normally pays back with vile and hatred. He has only two more years to go and Ndigbo have survived him for nearly six years now and will easily survive him for the remaining next two years.

This new Northern IGP appointment is another reason for the hopelessly optimistic Ndigbo who are wishing for a Nigerian president of Igbo extraction in 2023 to be really worried as their expectation might be similarly dashed. It is apparent that Muhammadu Buhari will not in this life hand over power to an Igbo person, having shown the much he hates Ndigbo with such venom. No previous Nigerian president have ever marginalized any group of Nigerians as Ndigbo are are currently being marginalized under Muhammadu Buhari's presidency. A clear testament that nobody wants Ndigbo in Nigeria yet they will not allow them to secede and form their own country, Biafra.  All the marginalization is going on but there is no outcry from other tribes in in Nigeria in condemnation of Ndigbo's fate under Muhammdu Buhari, being so singled out in this manner. 

They see Ndigbo as useful idiots only good for carrying the thankless workload of Nigeria's unity but not good for governance or the headship of any Nigerian security agency. Ndigbo do all the heavy lifting which sustains Nigeria, including carrying the economy, stocking and resupplying various chains of needs, paying largest import duties, VAT and taxes; and also hugely involved in real estate development of Nigeria. But all they get in return for all their contributions to Nigeria sustainability is such maltreatment of marginalization and that they are not good enough to hold real power. ICHEOKU says it is about time the Ndigbo's rejection by Muhammadu Buhari and other Nigerians is reciprocated in kind and let the particles collide of it must. It does not necessarily have to be a shooting hot war, a Cold War will suffice. But enough of the fruitless effort to remain good Nigerians by Ndigbo. #EnoughWIthBuhari
