MARTINE MOISE'S NEW YORK TIMES INTERVIEW: WHAT SHE IS NOT TELLING.
ICHEOKU says Haiti's bereaved First Lady and widow of slain President Jovenel Moise has not come clean with what happened to her late husband. Although she has been trying so hard to get ahead and stay on top of the story, but each time she tries, she ends up throwing more curve balls than clarity, into exactly what happened on that fateful tragic night when gunmen murdered her husband in their bedroom in Port-Au-Prince.
Previously, we were told that she was at the corridor beside their bedroom entrance door where the assassins stormed their home. Now, the story has changed as she tells us that her late husband asked her to lie on the floor beside the bed and you wonder which husband, fearing an immediate armed intrusion in their bedroom and harm to his wife, would ask her to lie down on the floor beside their bed.
Every husband would naturally implore their wife to run and go and hide somewhere far removed from their bedroom. At least if the husband had time to make two different telephone calls to two different security officers, it means that she had time to have ran away from the bedroom into hiding. She also said that she went to their children's sleeping area, woke them up and hide them in a bathroom with their dog. So, why did she not hide with them in that bathroom or at least hid herself somewhere else instead of rejoining her husband in their bedroom to be told later to lie down on the floor.
How could assassins who were firing their automatic machine guns from shoulder or waist level, strike someone who was lying on the floor first, before riddling the body of a person who was standing up, after making the frantic SOS telephone calls to security officers. Why did they wait in the bedroom to be killed and not take any evasive action such as hiding, to at least delay the inevitable and help them buy some time before the summoned help arrived. If they only shot her on the arm and elbow, how did blood get into her mouth since such happenstance usually occurs as a result of internal bleeding and no part of her torso or thoracic region was breached by the assassins bullets.
If as she "recalled", her mouth was filled with blood and she was unable to breath, how did she have the presence of mind to remain still and pretend to be "dead" while the assassins ransacked their bedroom drawers. How long can someone hold their breath, especially one that her mouth was full of blood? Even if she breathed through her nostrils, did she not make gargling sound because since her mouth was full of blood, that leaves her with only her nose for both breathing in and breathing out. She also failed to tell us if the lights in their bedroom were on or off. She also said that the only thing she saw before they killed her husband were the assassins boots and she then closed her eyes and did not see any other thing else.
Yet she said that they shot her first which means that she did not close her eyes when they shot her otherwise she wouldn't know who was shot first. So, where beside their bed on the floor was she lying down; was she lying supine or sideways; otherwise how could bullets fired randomly not penetrate her body but only wounded her arm and elbow? It shows that her gunshot wounds were specifically and methodically placed and was not as a result of random firing by unknown assailants who stormed their bedroom to assassinate the president. There is more to the story than she is telling and she needs to be placed on the investigation list, at least as a person of interest, with vital information in the assassination of her husband, the former president of Haiti Jovenel Moise.
She closed her eyes and did not see anything else, her mouth was also full of blood but she maintained her composure throughout the ordeal and even when the assassins shone a flashlight on her eyes? It is a difficult narration to believe and will require the suspension of logic and disbelief to accept her story as the true account of what actually took place in that bedroom on that fateful night of July 7th, 2021. It is extremely difficult, if not humanly impossible, the excitement of the commotion considered, for her to pull off such a composure under such stressful circumstance. Moreso, how could assassins who riddled her husband's body with bullets and made sure that he died, not spend similar effort riddling her body with bullets and made sure that she died before evacuating from the scene.
Someone with mouth full of blood, her eyes firmly shut closed and lying motionless on the floor, listened as the assassins ransacked the room, speaking Spanish as they searched methodically for something in her husband's files and saying that's not it, that's not it, until finally that's it". We also assume for the sake of this piece that it was not all of the assassins that conducted the search and that the whole thing took a while, at least more than some seconds. So why did, at least one of the assassins, hear her grunt or breathing and made sure that she was dead too before they left? As they filled out, one of them stepped on her feet and waved a flashlight over her shut-closed eyes, which possibly was to signal her that she can now get up and continue play-acting her part as an assassination survivor?
Why would paid assassins "thought" that she was dead, instead of confirming that she was dead by also riddling her upper torso with bullets as they did to her husband; or even putting some pointblank shots into her cranial walls. ICHEOKU says agrees with her but to the extent that the central question remains not only who ordered and paid for the assassination of her husband, but also what role did she play in it? What role did Haiti security hierarchy also play in it too? If the 18 Colombians and several Haitians so far detained as suspects killed the president, why did the president's security detail sign off on it?
It is irrelevant whatever their motivation was, including whether one doctor and pastor Christian Emmanuel Sanon conspired with Colombia mercenaries to kill the president because he wants to seize political power. Where was the over 30 security agents who make up the president's protection unit? Why was none of them killed or at least wounded that night while defending the president? And yes, the rich and powerful always hold sway in every society and they do not take kindly to any elected official including a president wanting to disturb their groove. So, Haiti is not an exception and their rich and powerful oligarchs possibly had a hand in the assassination but there is still a lot of grey areas not being illuminated by Martine Moise.
This is a woman who conditioned her interview with New York Times on their non disclosure of her hiding location somewhere in Southern Florida, yet she declared that she is not afraid of her husband's killers. Why then did she want her location off record if she is not afraid that his killers might want to finish her off. The only possible explanation is that she knows them and that they will not hurt her; because they did not hurt her when they could have easily done so inside her bedroom in Port-Au-Prince on July 7th, 2021. Also, her desire for her location not to be exposed could be that she possibly wants some quiet time to nurse her hand back to life; but then, how did New York Times get invited to do the interview?
ICHEOKU says her story does not add up. It is either that she is still suffering traumatic memory lapses or she is trying to cover her role in the entire scheme. According to her, they were asleep when gunfire jolted them to their feet. Then she ran to wake her two children up and made them hide in a bathroom, hurdled with their dog. What type of dog would not bark after sensing danger and harm coming to their owners? Her husband then grabbed the telephone and called for help; and she still had the presence of mind under panic to use "Honey" while asking him who he called? He then told her that he found Dimitri Herard and Jean Laguel Civil and they told him that they are on their way.
Then the assassins entered the house "swiftly and unencumbered"; and the husband told her to lie down on the floor so that she would not get hurt. That's where I think you will be safe he told her, but he did not prefix his own statement with "Honey" or "Darling"? If a burst of gunfire came from outside their bedroom, why then did the bullets strike her first? Was she already lying down on the floor as instructed or was she still standing up when the gunfire penetrated their bedroom? How long did the operation last and how many files did her husband have with him in their home that they could so easily find what they were looking for on the shelf. If what they were looking for was that valuable, why would the president just leave it lying on the shelf and not in a safe or strong room?
And yes, everybody should have died that night, but everybody did not die because it was somewhat an inside job with somebody very close to the president involved and fully participated in orchestrating his assassination. Now, she wants to run for president herself and you wonder whether it is her reward for her role in the killing of her husband. ICHEOKU says whatever vision President Jovenel Moise may have had for Haiti would have been better fulfilled with him alive and piloting the affairs of Haiti and midwifing the vision. But as it turned out, he had none, the reason Haiti was stalled and remained an all motion and no movement society throughout his presidency.
Anyway, Martine Moise needs to come completely clean with everything she knows about the assassination of her husband President Jovenel Moise and what role, if any, she played in it. But until she does, the shadow of a black widow will continue to hang over her because all the circumstances considered, it could not have been just mother luck that kept her alive; with only precisely placed gunshot wounds on her arm to show for it. It does not make sense, especially when her husband's body was riddled with bullets and they saw her lying down there beside the bed. ICHEOKU strongly believes that she was shot only after her husband was murdered and on the part of her body of her choosing, just to make it look as if she was also a victim.
Her story does not make sense and the place of her gunshot wounds does not conform with a random gunfire shots, moreso for a "victim" who was lying down on the floor. But the world might never know the depth of the conspiracy that actually killed President Jovenel Moise as the same people who possibly acted in concert are now doing the investigation. Only an expanded team of investigators, comprising of world experts, can truly unravel what happened in Port-Au-Prince on that deadly night of July 7th. So, until that happens, whatever anyone says about the assassination of President Jovenel Moise, including the tale by moonlight being pinned by his widow, Marine Moise, should be treated as pure hogwash. It is sad.

PIERS MORGAN QUESTIONS SIMONE BILES MENTAL ILLNESS: SHAME ON HIM.
Piers Morgan said that there is nothing heroic about quitting but forgot that the same goes both ways; and that as he was pointing a finger at Simone Biles, the rest of his other fingers were pointing back at him. The fat British slob has no grounds whatsoever to stand in making such a statement, having himself quit before when he stormed off a live British television programming simply because someone deflated his ego and checked his megalomanic streak.
It is therefore hypocritical of him to attack the Olympic gymnast for succumbing to the demons of mental illness, upbraiding her for "chickening" out from the Tokyo Olympics.. Piers Morgan should be the last person to complain about anybody quitting from something and many other people have severally quit from something, including their jobs or professions, because they cannot handle the pressure anymore. Simone Biles was not the first and she will not be the last; but it is always good to know when to call it quits in the interest of someone's health, mental or phial or both.
But Piers Morgan's attack appears to be prejudicially motivated, possibly because he has something against women particularly when they are colored. First, it was Meghan Markle and now Simone Biles and you wonder whether their skin color triggered him and had everything to do with his unwarranted criticism of a mental health sufferer. What a shame of Britain to have such a loudmouth who does not know when to hush. Perhaps he cherishes the attention which he gets each time he vents so idiotically, the reason he pounces on every opportunity that presents themselves for him to be the news. It is very pathetic of him that he finds such controversies so satisfying that he deliberately stews in them nearly frequently.
But to attack a mental health sufferer in this way despite her well known record of not easily shying away from challenges or "quitting", which made her the global superstar she is, who holds so many records in gymnastics, shows that Piers Morgan deliberately courts controversies and not that he genuinely believed that Simone Biles "quit" because she was not having a fun-filled day. A person who could attack his former friend, President Donald John Trump, just to get on top of news coverage is a person who would do just anything to stay in the news and he did it with his attack on mental health and questioning, if indeed Simone Biles had mental issues. It is sad.
ICHEOKU condemns the Brit for making such unguarded statement and without a care in the world how that might even add to the mental anguish which Simone Biles is currently undergoing. Why make a bad matter worse or is it not enough for him already that a world class Olympic gymnast who trained for a competition gave it all up as a result of something which she cannot control. But instead of showing sympathy and understanding, it is to taunt her by doubting her and further exacerbating the whole matter. Piers Morgan has shown by this that he is simply heartless and possibly have no heart at all and if any, may be one made of stone or even cold tungsten. What a fella the Brit really is; a very despicable fellow.

JUMMAI NACHE: A COVID-19/PFIZER VACCINE DOUBLE AMPUTEE NEEDS HELP.
ICHEOKU says is an advocate of vaccination and continues to urge people to get vaccinated against the coronavirus disease. The vaccines are largely safe and millions of people have already got their shots without much side effects and in the very few exceptional cases where side effects resulted, they are comparatively, small. However, this is not to discountenance that some few people had serious adverse reaction to the vaccines, and now suffering from all manners of health issues including uncontrollable body quaking, trembling and convulsion, hearing loss, impacted vision and in some extreme cases, the loss of limbs. In some rare cases, some people died following vaccination as their body reacted so violently to the vaccine and could not handle it.
Although the instances of this extreme adverse effects is relatively negligible compared to the millions of people who did not react to the vaccine adversely, but one death or one adverse reaction, is still one too many as nobody expected to die or lose their limbs following a vaccination. It should not be a case of running away from the frying pan and ended up inside the fire as people want to be inoculated against the Chinese killer virus and not be killed in the process. Such an outcome was not the bargained for benefit that motivated their presenting themselves to be vaccinated. Therefore the government in conjunction with the pharmaceutical companies involved should set up a fund from which compensation could be paid to those people who got the opposite of their bargain and were left holding the short-end of the stick; or worse still ended up in the grave yard, sent there not by the coronavirus but by the vaccine which was meant to prevent such an outcome.
The government and vaccine producers can easily undertake this as the insured and insurable risk will be drastically limited to only those who suffered loss of limbs and/or death as a result of taking the coronavirus vaccines. Such beneficiaries should be strictly limited to only those who did not have coronavirus disease prior to getting their vaccination and subsequently developed such a life threatening or compounding problems such as amputations of their legs and/or arms. The number of such sufferers will not be too many and such a step will also help incentivize and encourage those who are still squeamish about getting their shots, to take that leap of fate, fully aware that should anything happen to them as a result, such as incapacitation or even death, that their loved ones will be compensated.
Life as we know it is hard and it becomes even harder when loved ones, due to no fault of theirs, suddenly become incapacitated or even die; leaving behind a lot of hurt and un-fillable void. Worse still if they are the breadwinners of their household and their family is left foraging for sustenance and survival. Many people, if given the option to die from the coronavirus or die from the vaccine, would readily go for the former; a matter made even worse when their demise is preceded with long suffering hospitalization, intubation, amputations of all their limbs and all other things done in trying to prevent the inevitable, which they eventually ended up succumbing to. Why would anyone want to go through all the problems first before getting there, instead of just getting it over quickly by getting there as speedily as possible. It does not make sense, not at all.
The case of the Minnesota woman Jummai Nache is so heartrending that nobody would wish it on their worst enemy. A loving wife, mother, medical worker and a Christian who went for her second shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine on February 1st only to be rushed to Urgent Care on February 6th following complaints of chest pain. A day later on February 7th, she tested positive for the Chinese coronavirus disease and her condition took a turn for the worse as it deteriorated so quickly, leading to intensive care hospitalization and oxygenated intubation,. Her two legs were subsequently amputated as a result of irreversible damage to circulation to her lower extremities. She suffered massive blood clotting, respiratory difficulties, weakness of heart muscles, reduced red blood cells and inadequate blood supply to her body organs and organs inflammation.
Although she is out of the intensive care but her medical woes are not over yet as she will soon also lose both of her hands which are set for amputations as well. Imagine a life of a quadruple amputee, all possibly because of COVID-19 and the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. However, since she did not react adversely to the first shot of the vaccine and did not have coronavirus then or during the two weeks waiting period soon thereafter, it becomes arguable whether it is still plausible to attribute her adverse condition to the vaccine? But since she still got infected after completing her vaccination with the second shot and then reacted this badly, what possibly could have caused it? ICHEOKU says it must be a case of someone being extremely unlucky because were it due to the vaccine, she would have been struck immediately upon getting her first shot. It therefore must be as a result of complications from COVID-19, but why was she still infected after getting her two shots?
Anyway, she is one very unfortunate lady as she did everything right by getting her shots, yet ended up getting COVID-19 and suffering such devastating health complications. It is people like her that makes the need to set up a compensation fund imperative in order to assist people who due to no fault of theirs ended up with such debilitating health issues. The government in Washington DC as well as in Minnesota and also the city of Minneapolis should give this woman all the assistance which she needs paying her medical expenses as well as life going forward. Her case is where her representative Congresswoman Ilhan Omar should be in the forefront soliciting for help on her behalf. Their church Minnesota-Wisconsin Baptist Convention have already taken a good step by setting up a GoFundMe page for her and hopefully many people will be touched by her story to surpass the set goal of raising $500,000 towards her medical bills and upkeep. Please visit her GoFundMe page today and help as much as you can - #GoFundMe for Jummai Nache.

MAZI NNAMDI KANU: A NO SHOW AT COURT BUT STILL A VERY LUCKY MAN.
ICHEOKU says on a grand scheme of things, not being brought to court is still a much better option than being deep sixed or missing without a trace and being searched for by his family and the IPOB worldwide family. Therefore no matter how measured, weighted, diced and analyzed, being confined in the slammer for another three months until October 21st is still a far better outcome, the disappointment notwithstanding, than being in the bottom of the Indian Ocean or covered up by sand dunes of the Sahara desert or even in a shallow unmarked grave somewhere in Abuja. These were "options" available to the Nigeria gangster regime of Muhammadu Buhari, but they chose to bring him back to Nigeria alive to "continue" with his prosecution.
So, the government or rather junta of Muhammadu Buhari can lie all they want that it was for lack of transportation or as they put it, "logistics" that frustrated their bringing Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to court, but time will eventually resolve all gray areas. Needless to add that they had "transportation" when they took him from Abuja airport following their successful abduction of him from Kenya to wherever hellhole they are keeping him in and also had "transportation" when they re-arraigned him in court shortly after bringing him back. But suddenly, all the vehicles at the disposal of the DSS became immobilized and none could transport Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to court despite that the DSS had about one month court notice since June 19th of the scheduled July 26th 2021 due date for his taking of plea.
Like the full dictatorship which Muhammadu Buhari is gradually morphing into, disrespecting the court is usually a hallmark of dictatorships. They intentionally and purposely refused to bring Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, an accused who is in their custody and who was ordered to be brought to court in order for the court to take his plea. But the good news is that they have already admitted that they "intercepted" him and have already brought him to court once and also held a press conference and media sessions to chest-beat themselves on his capture. He is in their custody and his safety and upkeep is now their total responsibility. Ndigbo, IPOB, other meaningful Nigerians as well as the international community expect the Nigerian government to take this responsibility very seriously by protecting Mazi Nnamdi Kanu with every fiber of their being.
Time flies by quickly and before too long October 21st will come around and hopefully then, they will have "transportation" with which to bring Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to court and produce him to take his plea. It is only delayed but cannot be avoided; admitted they did what they did just to defer the day certain and in order to punish him further with additional two months detention without trial in their attempt to break his will to carry on the Biafra struggle. But he is a man of great resolve and if his antecedents are any indicators, he will tough the two months out, convinced in the rightness of his cause and in order to continue presenting the face of a leader on whose shoulders lie the fate of over 80 million Biafrans yearning for freedom from the Nigeria State.
Anyway, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is in fact actually lucky that he was taken alive from Kenya and brought safely alive back to Nigeria. That God shepherded him throughout is by itself a miracle worthy of celebration, his kidnap and 8 days of torture in Kenya and then the 5 hours flight from Nairobi to Abuja considered. He is merely in custody, but still breathing, still ingesting and still getting hydrated. Those mercenaries who lured him to the airport parking garage could have easily put a bullet in his head right there and left his body to be found later as a victim of unknown killers. They could also have killed him in captivity and dumped his body into the Athi river or Tana river; or even the Indian Ocean or put him in a roadside garbage dump to be trashed or discovered as another victim of gun violence in Nairobi. He could also have succumbed to the torture which lasted for 8 long days and his body promptly disposed.
But none of these happened; he survived Kenya and was handed over to Nigeria authorities who came to Kenya and took him back to Abuja in a private plane. His handlers could have easily thrown him out of the plane over the desert of Sudan or Chad and no trace of him ever found; but they decided otherwise and proceeded to land him safely in Abuja. They could have also injected him with a heart attack inducing drug or lace his drink with cyanid on the plane and watch him die an agonizing painful, slow death. Then, touched down and quietly bury him in an unmarked grave in Abuja and sworn to oath of secrecy, case closed. Thereafter, the government would make a renewed call for his capture or surrender, placing a fresh bounty of $500 million on his head as a reward for anyone who will give the government his current known address and/or help the government capture him and bring him back to Nigeria, aware that the bounty will never be collected.
Any of these would have spared the Nigeria government the opprobrium for the method they used in bringing the IPOB leader back to Nigeria. However, the Nigeria government chose differently and brought him back alive to Nigeria which shows that the killing of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was not their priority and primary objective. It is also possible that they brought him back alive to Nigeria purposely to satisfy their ego, show that it can be done and to send a strong message of the fate which awaits anyone who dares challenge the government. Further, that irrespective of their location or believe of personal invincibility, that the long arm of the Nigerian government can still reach them and grab them.
It is possible too that they brought him back alive to Nigeria as a personal vendetta and to diminish him before his IPOB followers as now a captive of the "failed Zoological Nigeria State. That despite his braggadocio, he was still trapped and captured just like an ordinary rat by the same "failed zoological Fulani government of Nigeria." Yes indeed, the Nigerian government deflated Mazi Nnamdi Kanu by bringing him back to Nigeria alive, in handcuffs and leg chains, just like a common criminal. They made his capture personal, tired and frustrated with his calling Nigeria a "failed zoological republic" and constantly stating that Buhari was dead and buried in Saudi Arabia, and that one "Jubril el Sudan" is the impostor in Aso Rock. He became a pain in their butt and they became desperate to shut him up and then went all the way in to capture him.
So, yes, governments all over the world have been kidnapping people, both their citizens and non citizens alike. Once, a government perceives or rather determines that a person has become a security threat or too embarrassing to them, they make a play at nabbing the person or even permanently shutting the person up through assassination. So, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is not the first person nor will he be the last person to be ever kidnapped by a government. Even before Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, Nigeria government under then military head of state Muhammadu Buhari in 1985 attempted to forcefully bring Umaru Dikko back to Nigeria from London following a successful kidnapping of him.
Not too long ago, four Iranian security agents were indicted in a New York court for their role in plotting to kidnap and forcefully return back to Iran an Iranian journalist Mash Alinejad, an activist and critic of the Tehran regime who lives in Brooklyn New York. Some other countries do not even tangle themselves with the niceties of kidnapping and forceful return of such dissidents; as they consider that too risky, a waste of time and needless expenditure of valuable resources. They simply neutralize them on the spot whenever the opportunity presents itself. Russia is one such country which does not border itself with such a waste of time. Poisoning of tea with isotopes, body contact delivered poisons and hanging them in a make believe suicide are some of their preferred methods of getting rid of such "nuisances" and "enemies" of the Russian State,
In February 2017, North Korea secret agents assassinated the wanted brother of their Leader Kim Jong Un, Kim Jong-nam, with a VX nerve agent, a body contact poison, inside Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Malaysia. Lets not also forget the compromised tea which they gave MKO Abiola in Abuja in order to permanently shut him up over the unresolved June 12th mandate. Israel too does not bother bringing such targeted persons for elimination back home, they summarily just waste them wherever the opportunity presents itself, including their recent assassination inside Tehran of an Iranian nuclear chief scientist. The targeted assassinations of Abu Nidal and other Palestinian hitmen who carried out the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre of Israeli athletes are also on record.
So, yes, all the circumstances considered, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should consider himself a very lucky man as he could have been simply disappeared from the face of the earth, never to be seen or heard again from; forever silenced and frozen out without a trace. Countries regularly hunt down people who they feel are a threat to their national security or even perturbing their peace of mind; and yes, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was one such person who Abuja was tired of his "pestilence" and wanted him shut up for good. So, they set a perfect trap for him and he recklessly walked into it. He was safely brought back to Nigeria and put in a dark, dank underground custodial detention, with no more access to the Internet and with that, he was put out of commission and out of circulation, at least for now.
As he spends his time in detention, introspecting and thinking about his recklessness and that lapse in care for his personal security, going to meet some people at an underground parking garage in Nairobi Kenya, without bodyguards or other companions, he should also count his blessings that he survived the ordeal in Kenya and was brought back to Nigeria in one piece. It means that there is still hope that someday, he will still have the opportunity to continue with his freedom fighting. Although the ideal saying is that "he who runs away lives to fight another day," but as a correlative, he who is in detention will be freed someday to continue the fight; whenever that some day ends up being. All he can do now is to keep maintain his sanity, keep hope alive, and pray that law and political pressure, nationally and internationally, would persuade the Nigerian government to curb their vengeance.
Where there is life, there is hope. He will still have an opportunity of continuing his fight for Biafra liberation and possibly someday, live to see his dream come through with a Biafra restored. But he should now focus his energy on surviving detention and not fret too much about any other thing, including any fantom rescue or a British intervention which will spring him out of detention. It is possible too that the British government and Kenya government and Nigeria government planned and orchestrated the whole thing. Fearing backlash in London, 10 Downing Street possibly want to end the tension being generated in Nigeria by signing off on his abduction as governments do all sorts of wheeling and dealing beneath the surface.
Anyway, ICHEOKU still commends the Nigerian government for not being blood thirsty ruthless by sparing the life of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and bringing him back safely to Nigeria. Hopefully, the government will allow the courts the free hand to determine his fate or better still, resolve it politically through a compromise. May be instead of yielding to his demand for a full restoration of Biafra through an organized referendum, the government should agree to a restructured Nigeria where the regions will be granted a near full autonomy as truly federated regions which will accommodate the sentiments which fired up the agitation. ICHEOKU says if it is offered, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should accept it as a full measure and in complete satisfaction of his agitation, in lieu of a sovereign State of Biafra and continue to count his blessings that he did not disappear without a trace. October 21st, we now await.

JUST DO IT: GET VACCINATED, PRESIDENT DONALD JOHN TRUMP ALREADY DID.
ICHEOKU says what do you have to lose getting vaccinated and what do you have to gain by still holding out and refusing to get your life's shot in the arm when majority of the people have already got theirs. President Donald John Trump did; Sean Hannity did and so also did Tucker Carlson. The vaccines are safe; they are free and millions of people have already received their shots and they are still here with us, not dead nor deformed or too sickly as a result.
Therefore, to still be holding out on whatever ground does not seem to make sense at all, at least not any more; since the vaccines have proven themselves very effective against the Chinese coronavirus disease. Do not let an otherwise avoidable death cause your family and loved ones a lasting pain, sorrow and anguish; at least do it for them. Many people held out on getting the vaccines for a very long time, afraid that the vaccines might be killer shots, but it eventually turned out that they are killer shots only against the Chinese coronavirus disease. Millions of people have been saved from the coronavirus disease and spared from untimely death as a result of the vaccines. So, do not set back the hands of the clock of the progress being recorded in the war against the coronavirus by foolishly still becoming a statistic when you would have been saved.
Nothing else justifies the continuing resistance and vaccine hesitancy; and if it is because of Dr Anthony Fauci, just ignore him and go get your shot. Dr Anthony Fauci did not make the vaccines and couldn't have compromised them or came up with bad products, admitted his messaging has been all over the place, causing more confusion than giving clarity and thereby inducing more fear than confidence in the vaccines. Many people expected Joe Biden to have since fired Dr Anthony Fauci for all his misleading statements which brought about the hesitancy. But as it stands right now, anyone waiting for when Joe Biden will fire him before getting their shot, might probably get the coronavirus disease, because Joe Biden's hands are inextricably tied and he cannot dare make Dr Fauci mad, less the machinations of November 3rd will come unraveled. So, borrow a leaf from Nike and just do it. Go get vaccinated.

430 AMERICANS KILLED IN ONE WEEK: IT IS WAR, DEPLOY THE TROOPS.
ICHEOKU says American forces are deployed in so many countries principally to help protect them and also prevent them from killing themselves. The primary argument against bringing American troops back home from Afghanistan is that Afghanis will restart killing each other once Americans forces are withdrawn from the country. So, yes, Talibans are Afghanis and they are killing their fellow Afghanis, fighting a government run by Afghanis in Kabul. The same equally reason goes for other places with various insurgencies throughout the world where American troops are deployed and stationed.
But in America, American gunmen are running around killing fellow Americans at such a rate that it is nearing the level of "insurgency", so, when will American troops be deployed in the homeland to help protect the American people and prevent these lunatic Americans from the continuing killings of their fellow Americans. Enough of the covering up and pretending as if everything is honky dory in America because it is not as too many American people are losing their lives to senseless shootings. Nearly 1000 shootings in one week with 430 Americans killed and over 1000 others injured, is such a drastic record that everybody in America should begin to seriously ask what is wrong with a system that permits her citizens to be summarily wasted in this manner by preventable gun violence.
Why are Americans so angry and mad at each other that they readily resort to shooting one another with such viciousness any time they have a disputation or disagreement as to kill over 430 Americans just within one week. What is wrong people or is this blood letting now an acceptable way of life that people just shrug them off until the next incident or they too become victim added to the statistics of the madness. It is time to heavily and mercilessly crackdown on this tragic recurring decimal which has enveloped America as no one is safe anymore in America. Bullets do not have eyes, especially stray bullets, which normally mistake their intended target for a hapless innocent victim including little children.
A total of 915 shooting incidents were recorded in America just between July 17 and July 23 which left 430 people dead and 1007 others injured. Such a record telegraphs a strong incontrovertible message of nation in distress, suffering from serious gun violence crisis. It is time Washington DC rose to the occasion and look inwards to fixing the problem, no matter what it will take. American people's lives ought to be saved and it is their duty to prevent these blood shedding going on in America. Although, this proposition might not be attractive to the Deep State military industrial complex because it will not be profitable for them because light arms and not bombs will be needed, unlike foreign wars and interventions; but they should take pity on American people, whose lives and the lives of their loved ones are continuously being lost and threatened by these gun violence.
The authorities should tune out all the political correctness and wokeness noise and crackdown heavily on the ravaging gun violence. It does not matter whose interest will be jeopardized in the process as American people are dying at an unacceptable too high numbers and the authorities are duty bound now to put a stop to it. The government should consider deploying some of those troops returning home from Afghanistan to some of these cities now under siege of gun violence to help bring it under control. If it means cracking some heads and breaking some kneecaps, so be it; but enough of this senseless shootings and wasting of innocent lives. They should just end it however possibly achieved.
ICHEOKU strongly believes, for example, that if the streets of Southside Chicago is fully saturated with soldiers, that those thugs running around with guns and killing and maiming people will have a very limiting space to run around and pull their triggers. But unfortunately, these politicians running the affairs of the country are rather more interested in how to retain their power base instead of effectively policing the cities. Some of them will not even allow their city's law enforcement officers to do the enforcement for which they were hired and paid for.
Whether it is because of the color of majority of the victims of these street gun violence that made the authorities to be less concerned or that they are using it to depopulate certain people in America, ICHEOKU cannot say for sure. But whatever the reason, the government should not wait any further to try and stem the tide of the scourge. If the government could care enough about Afghanis who are several thousands of miles away in Afghanistan to want to keep American troops there to protect them, why is caring for American people in America a difficult task to perform.
American Lives Matter, whether black or hispanic or latino or white or asian or indigenous. Therefore American government must prioritize American lives over any other lives anywhere as their primary mandate is to protect Americans from their enemies, foreign and domestic. These thugs running around the streets, shooting, killing and wounding American people inside America are domestic enemies and should be approached as such. Let the government also suspend the politics of "domestic terrorism" and refocus its energy on the real domestic enemies of America who are the real terrorists, terrorizing American people with guns.
Enough of the madness. At 430 gun-killed Americans last week alone, if nothing is done to checkmate these trigger pulling lunatics, the death toll might become embarrassingly too high by the time the year ends. Each time Joe Biden has the opportunity to tell the story, he harps on the tragic loss of his son Bo Biden to cancer. It hurts to lose a child and these other parents whose children are being daily lost through senseless shootings are equally hurting and other parents need to be exposed to suffering the same experience of lasting agony and pain. These guns do not fire themselves, people do; and these people are known and could be fished out from those communities that are plagued by them.
It is also disheartening that community leaders as well as religious leaders in these communities are not shouting to the government to do something about the rapidly deteriorating situation in their communities. Even BLM which seems to get their mojo only when it is a white police officer involved shooting of a black person is not lifting a finger about this scourge. Then you ask yourself, how about these folks being killed everyday by their fellow folks who share their skin pigmentation or does their lives not matter? What is department of Homeland Security doing about it or is the homeland which they are securing only at the airports. Better still, let the government create another department and exclusively task it with getting these trigger happy thugs off American streets.
With 43,000 gun deaths recorded last year 2020 despite the coronavirus lockdown and now, the more than 24,000 gun deaths already recorded this 2021, what else does anyone, including the government, needs to see before understanding that shootings of Americans by Americans in America have reached an epidemic proportion. That Americans are at war with each other and why is the authorities not raising hell about it or is it because none of them have been affected directly to make them feel the pain which these bereaved families are going through. Please say no to the madness; put an end to the senseless gun violence in America. Let the government do whatever it takes to arrest the spiraling out situation without any further foot-dragging. #EndTheKilling.

USWNT MADE IT RAIN AND IT RAINED GOALS IN SAITAMA: DEFEATS NEW ZEALAND 6:1
ICHEOKU says they acquitted themselves very well with a routing defeat of New Zealand and are now back in contention at the ongoing Tokyo 2020 Olympics women soccer championship game. A total of 11 goals went into the nets, 10 for United States of America women national team with 4 disallowed and 1 consolatory goal for team New Zealand. Hopefully, they will maintain their rediscovered form and finish off Australia and enter into the quarter finals and make it all the way.
ICHEOKU says wishes team USA well; admitted team Sweden is still the team to beat in the competition because they are stronger and better as is seen so far. Team Sweden's game against Australia was simply beautiful and they will either win the championship or at least play in the finals. But hey, Go USWNT!
Just an side, why have feminists females allowed men to tell them what to do by coaching their female soccer team? What a man can do, a woman can do even better, their battle cry goes. Women kick the ball; women officiate the matches; so why not insist that women coach the teams. This will help sustain the "struggle" for equality in the never ending battle of the sexes as it is "mansplaining" for a man to "dictate" to women how they should play their women soccer. These feminists should insist that women soccer be left for women and make it a complete female affair and that females must coach women soccer teams. But to bring in a man to replace a woman as a coach seems to have set the movement back. Anyway, just our opinion. Go USWNT.
HUNTER BIDEN CASHES IN ON HIS DADDY'S OFFICE: GOES ARTS WOKE.
ICHEOKU says it is suddenly now ok for crackhead son of Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, to sell his artworks for hundreds of thousands of dollars; but it was never acceptable for President Donald John Trump's sons to run their family's hotel in Washington DC. It is the same way they went radio silent on the 25th Amendment now that the White House chief resident actually manifests clear mental incapacity, bothering on delusion. It is also noteworthy that the Emolument clause which they hounded President Trump with because of the Trump Hotel in Washington DC is not implicated in these artworks..
But how often do curators fork up $500,000 for a piece of artwork by an unknown artist, especially one whose only credential of fame is being a crackhead and son of Joe Biden? If it is not often and assuming such ever happens, what then are these arts "curators and enthusiasts" paying for, disguised as artworks? Are these art lovers, collectors, aficionados, enthusiasts and curators possibly funneling bribe money through a son to purchase influence in his father's White House? Like laundering drug money, can bribe money be somehow laundered and parceled off through payments for artworks? The amounts of money being paid for Hunter Biden's "artworks" surely looks like another Ukrainian Burisma scandal, but this time on arts steroidal overdrive.
Hopefully, Hunter Biden is not also jonesing and getting his fix from paint fumes because once a crackhead always a crackhead and paint is a known source of getting high. Nobody will say anything about Hunter Biden inhaling glue or rather paint fume, but were it Sha'Carri Robinson that inhaled ordinary marijuana smoke, they will summarily ban her from the Tokyo Olympics. It is on record that Hunter Biden did not attend any arts school nor received any training in arts, yet his nondescript artworks are selling for such high amounts of money. For those who might want to defend him that it is a natural talent, ICHEOKU says, so, why did it remain latent until his father was installed in the White House by the Deep State?
But hey, it is the Bidens and their actions are insulated from ever being examined. They are another untouchable family in America who can do no wrong just like the Clintons. Imagine the uproar which it would have generated were it Eric Trump that suddenly became a "world famous" artist whose works are valued at half a million dollars. What the fake news media have done in America with their selective narrative and bias righteous indignation is hideous. To paraphrase Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana, If not for double standards, fake news media will not have any standard at all. Not even George W. Bush's artworks ever fetched such staggering amounts and Hunter Biden waited and only launched his artistry once his daddy got into the White House. A very interesting move one would say and it appears that he learned very well from his Ukrainian mentors/advisors/partners.

TOKYO 2020 OLYMPICS: AN OLYMPICS LIKE NO OTHER, MIGHT AS WELL NEVER HELD.
ICHEOKU says that the Tokyo Olympics is holding is an indication of the misplaced value of the International Olympics Committee and the Japanese National Olympics Committee on financial gains over peoples lives and the original ideals of the Athenian gift to the world to bring the world's people together in celebration through sports. Having postponed it before, why not just postpone it again or even indefinitely until such a time that the Chinese coronavirus would have been effectively, fully controlled and to the point that it is no longer threatening civilization and not infecting people so much.
The essence of the Olympics is to celebrate humanity through sports, so what is the point holding the Olympics when humanity cannot celebrate themselves, rejoicing, backslapping one another and mixing and mingling freely. The Tokyo Olympics is so weird and generally not Olympics like that some of the rules of engagement or rather non engagement mirrors an Olympics that is steadily looking like a sterilization camp rather than a gathering of the world's best athletes using sports to celebrate world's people. It is so bad that not even medals will be hung on the athletes by Olympics officials; rather they will pick the medals up themselves and then do with it whatever they please.
Even Olympics condoms which are being distributed among the athletes are specifically "marked" to be used only when the Olympics games end and possibly in their own respective countries but definitely not in Tokyo. Then add the cardboard sleeping beds for the athletes which is to ensure any extra weight on it will lead to its collapse; and you wonder why persons bent on making out cannot simply lay sheets on the floor and get on with their thing, since sex is not bed exclusive. Then there is the fleeting seconds allowed for chatting up fellow athletes and the food which must be chowed down in seconds as well. There is also the empty stadiums and arenas where athletes will perform without spectators or fans cheering them on.
They literary took the Olympics out of the event and it is not a case of where one half loaf is better than none; no, there is no loaf at all in this case as the supposed half loaf is biscuit and not bread. So, why still proceed with the Olympics if it must be held in such an austere and sterile condition; and not defer it to such a future time when it can be held the proper and right way which Olympics are know for.
The Tokyo 2020 Olympics was supposed to have held last summer 2020 but never did because of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. The coronavirus is still with us in 2021, so why hold it now? If it was postponed once, why not postponed it again and until when society is freed of the coronavirus scourge, however long that might be. Japan would have been given the right of first refusal to host it before it moves to any other host country. Such an outcome would have been much better than holding an Olympics which is a mere shadow or rather a ghostly apparition of a typical Olympics. A Tokyo Olympics with no fans, no tourists, no spectators, no fun and no world's peoples from every part of the globe singing kumbaya in celebration of one another in peace, harmony and joyfulness is not an Olympics in the strict sense of it.
But the show must go on as fat cats are eager to recover as much money as they possibly can from an investment which is already looking every inch bankrupt. The Tokyo Olympics is going to end up in near total complete loss for host country Japan, its National Olympics Organizing Committee as well as the International Olympics Committee. So, all these factors considered, why then still proceed with it as no prudent mind will make such a decision unless there is something which they have not disclosed yet that shows the merits outweigh the demerits of proceeding with the Olympics under the circumstances.
ICHEOKU says the Tokyo Olympics was marred even before it started in cost overruns, many scandals including the president Yoshiro Mori being forced out because of political correctness wokeness due to a statement that "talkative women tends to make meetings last too long." Then the president of International Olympics Committee Thomas Bach called Japanese people Chinese and dismissed such an egregious misconstruction without apologizing in Japanese; unlike John Cena who profusely apologized to China in Cantonese for mistakenly referring to Taiwan as an independent country. There was also the scandal with the music director and the comment about Nazi and of course Sha'Carri Richardson's was banned for inhaling marijuana which Kamala Harris also did, but which Bill Clinton only puffed on it but did not inhale.
Anyway, fireworks does not make an Olympics; it is the interactions and records that are broken as well as other interplays among the athletes such as the one for which condoms are freely supplied. It also includes other extracurricular activities and the many pictures and videos taken with newly made friends and places traveled and explored outside the Olympics village quarantine zone. It also includes the food, drinks, parties and cultural experiences shared and taken in, none of which will be part of the Tokyo 2020 experience. So, what manner of Olympics will it be anyway without all the pomp and pageantry usually associated with Olympics games. Many people are tuned off and not watching as they have more life challenging issues in this days of COVID-19 and other overwhelming natural disasters plaguing the world.
ICHEOKU is watching only the USWNT to see what happens next after their abysmal performance against Sweden. Hopefully they will extend the watching time or son of man will be signing off with their exit from Tokyo. The other person who would have deserved time spent on the couch is unfortunately not participating in the Olympics because of a foolish decision against inhaling marijuana which will cost the United States of America an Olympic gold medal in the women 100 meters race. Sha'Carri Robinson should not have been banned for inhaling marijuana smoke and if it was because of the rule and the rule is the rule, the rule should have been waived for her as the rule was waived for two Defense Secretaries, the present and another one in the past. But hey, the games have begun and may the medals count reward those countries who are better than the others.

HUNGARY STRONG: EUROPEAN UNION MUST STOP THE BULLYING.
ICHEOKU says not even a husband and wife living together under one roof have shared values that are 100% in tandem with each other. So, why is the European Union forcing and blackmailing Hungary to an "all or nothing" deal on the issues of homosexuality and diluting their Christian society with Islamism. Why must Hungary be made to agree to this two issues as a precondition to accessing EU funding, when they are an independent country with entrenched values rooted in their Christian beliefs and ideological standing. It is akin to asking a person to first forsake his family before the person can draw on a membership benefits of a club.
So, what if such are in the charter of the European Union; why not place more emphasis on realizing the core objectives of why the club was set up. The European Union was primarily set up as one hub for all economic activities and travels in Europe; so why the deviation to rather mundane issues which are rather personal to the 27 member countries respectively. What has homosexuality and Islamism got to do with a member country being in good standing? Must the other European countries which have been smitten by the nut job, leftist, woke culture now force other remaining and still sensible European countries to also join them in their mass suicide. Even Jim Jones did not force his 900 followers to drink the cyanide laced cool-aid in the 1978 Jonestown Guyana massacre, he merely persuaded them.
So, why is the European Union being so mean and indifferent to Hungary's peculiar religious and cultural way of life and now deploying threats of withholding of financial assistance and economic deprivation as weapons of pressure. Of what benefit will homosexuality and islamism be to Hungary anyway that the European Union is forcing them to accept them? If those other countries which have lost their backbones, capitulated and under the scourge of the two experimentations find the two oddities acceptable to them, so be it. But the EU must allow other countries which still have sound minds and good heads on their shoulders to maintain their way of living and keep the two strangers out of their own immediate geographical space.
Like Hungary has repeatedly stated, they are not against anyone from being whatever they want to be; but they want their children not to be indoctrinated with certain unnatural absurdities such as certain lifestyles which are better kept personal and not forcibly foist on the society as an acceptable way of life. They also want to keep their society safe from Islamists terrorists attacks and frequent slaughtering of their Hungarian citizens. ICHEOKU says Hungary reserves the right to be accommodated because despite political correctness, same sex is still largely seen as an abnormality and an act so unnatural that the animal kingdom still holds it off and not partaking in it because it is an aberration. Even the plant kingdom too understands this fact and respects it through pollination.
But since not every one in any given society is sane, so it is expected that there will be some queers in every society; but that does not make it alright to hold up such lifestyle as the new normal and/or natural. The human gnome and body cells sometimes make some mistakes by replicating diseases causing cells, but that does not mean that these streaked cells should then become acceptable and allowed to dominate the good cells including occupying the discussion space. Why teach children about homosexuality and not allow them to grow up and find it out by themselves if that is what they want. Also, since the logic of "born that way" is also prevalent in the society as an argument in support, no child therefore needs to be indoctrinated to since the gnome will naturally trigger as they become matured.
ICHEOKU says has nothing against anyone being expressive about whatever works for them; but believes that there is nothing in particular to be proud about or celebrate about homosexuality, because it is not an honor to be one and it is not a status that is earned. Nobody celebrates being normal and straight because it is the gold standard; so why celebrate the freaks of nature, who all things considered, should be feeling different because they are indeed different. Therefore, what is there to celebrate, except that they want to always be in peoples face trying to provoke ruckus where none exists.
The good news however is that homosexuality has been as old as the world and so many people either know a person or have or had an uncle or an auntie who is "somehow" different. Even the Bible has a record on homosexuality in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. So nobody is saying that homosexuals should not exist, but that they should not force their lifestyle on the rest of society through propaganda and aggressiveness, in an attempt to supplant what is normal with rather their queerness. It is this overstepping of natural boundaries that Hungary is not allowing the European Union to help gay lobbyists forcibly achieve in Budapest, because it is both against their Christian faith and traditional beliefs. Hungary does not hate anybody who is differently orientated.
As to Islamism which is rapidly engulfing Europe, nature abhors a vacuum and because of abandonment of Christianity by Europeans, Islamism swooped in to take dominion. Unfortunately, the same Europe which brought Christianity to the rest of the world now have fewer Christians than the other continents which they took their "religion" to, including Africa and Asia. It is also probable that there are fewer Christians in Europe today than there are Muslims, with many churches already converted to Mosques and many more mosques still being built. It is also true that no church foundation has been laid in Europe in the recent past, if not in this 21st century.
Although ICHEOKU is a spiritualist and not a religionist, but decries the European indifference to the Islamization agenda being implemented in Europe. A matter more disturbing because it is accompanied with a jihadi's violence which summarily murders innocent people just because of who they are. A lot of islamist killings have been going in France, United Kingdom and Germany, instilling fear in the populace and making the people anxious with attendant health risks of hypertension, high blood pressure and even heart attacks. But what do they do, instead of finding a way to proactively protect their citizens, they are busy preaching "accommodation" and one Europe while the Islamism financiers in the Middle East and Asia are laughing them off for being clueless and so naive not to read the handwriting on the wall.
Hungary does not want its population to be similarly victimized by a religion which sheds the blood of innocent people just to make their point, the reason they are jealously guarding their immediate borders from Islamist penetration. This should be respected by the European Union as Budapest knows best what is in the best interest of Hungarians more than whimpering bureaucrats in Brussels. There is free movement in the European Union, so anyone who feels "unwanted" in Hungary could always relocate to any of the other 26 countries in the Union and in that way the problem is solved. So let Hungary be allowed to remain Hungary, unless the EU wants to force it out of the union just like they did with the United Kingdom.
Why does the 27 countries still even maintain their respective names and governments, instead of dissolving into one United States of Europe. It shows that some nationalistic prides are still recognized and must be respected, including giving to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's. If Hungary does not want to disorientate Hungarian children with teachings and indoctrination of homosexuality and/or to import Islamists terrorists into their country to cause them harm, so be it. Europe must wake up to what is staring them on the face or they will someday wish they did, when it would have become too late to abort. Political correctness and wokeism is gravely weakening Europe and might eventually, someday, be their Titanic. #HungaryStrong. #StandWithHungary.

3:0 TROUNCING OF USWNT HUMILIATING: BRING BACK COACH JILL ELLIS.
ICHEOKU says not even the purple hair Megan Rapinoe could save America from the shame of falling 0:3 to Sweden in the women soccer game opener of Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics. How did it happen that a team with an unbroken record of 44 winning streak, suddenly folded up just like that and allowed Sweden to so summarily humble them like that in Tokyo. It is Sweden for crying out loud, trumping a defending world champion USA for that matter. It is to say the least, simply dumbfounding and ego deflating.
If it was a 0:1 loss, may be that would be understandable as their having a bad day without soccer luck being on their side. But to concede three goals without scoring even one goal is simply inexplicable and to some extent, even deserves an investigation to see what went wrong and how to put a bandaid on it. It is possible that the team was having some psychological problems and other issues, such as serious infighting and personality conflicts which impacted their performance and overall coordination on the field. Something definitely was wrong with the team judging from their below par play reflected in so many missed passes and lackluster kicks when in front of the goalpost. They need to fix whatever the problem is if they hope to rebound from the shocking humiliation and make it through the competition, especially if they want to retain their crown.
Whatever happened was largely technical and occasioned by a management team which failed woefully and could not read the match correctly to enable them make necessary substitutions that would have rebooted the team and achieved a different outcome. For instance. USWNT's Jersey number 7 Tobin Heath should have been replaced much earlier as she was not in her element. She missed a lot of scoring opportunities and was very angry throughout the match which led to her not playing at her usual terrific capacity. Even substituting Crystal Dunn was another technical mistake as the problem was in the center forward offense which could not and did not convert the many goal scoring opportunities that were presented to them. Why she was removed was beyond ICHEOKU as she was brilliant throughout the game and saved the team with her fantastic tackles.
ICHEOKU says the Swedish team outplayed and outflanked the American team in practically every department, but majority of the blame goes to coach Vlatko Andonovski for his failure to read the game properly and adjust the pattern of play accordingly. There were changes which he ought to have made much earlier which he failed to make or made too late into the game. There were also too many dribbling and even in front of a yawning goalpost that were not necessary. Some of the players held unto the ball for too long and longer than would have impacted the outcome differently.
Candidly speaking, Megan Rapinoe has in fact outlived her utility and usefulness in the team as she no longer possess the killer instinct and warrior fighting spirit which made her a tireless robot in her glorious days. She has now become an unneeded extra weight to the team bordering on a distraction to the team and needs to go; or at most, not allowed more than ten minutes playing time in any game. ICHEOKU says does not want to go into her extreme left liberal woke politics and personal lifestyle choices, which have cost the team so many fans; and speaking of her hair, did she go to the Tokyo with her personal stylist as she is definitely outdoing the late Prince in the color purple department.
Anyway, lets hope that they will summon themselves up on Saturday and redeem themselves by making the game with New Zealand a complete routing walkover. If in any event, they suffer another loss to the Kiwis, their coach, Vlatko Andonovuski should be summarily fired right there on the field without even giving him the respect of superintending the next game with Australia. ICHEOKU strongly believes that World Cup winning coach Jill Ellis would have corrected the obvious mistakes immediately after the first goal and would have guided the team to a victory over Sweden. Something went awry and needs to be fixed by the Saturday game, including settling any infighting among the women. It was difficult suffering through the 90 minutes plus of a total and complete Swedish domination as they literally walked all over the American ladies; and were also more physically conditioned than the Americans.
Alternatively, coach Jill Ellis should be flown immediately to Tokyo to serve as a consultant assistant coach to Vlatko Andonovoski through the remainder of the game. But whatever happens, the team must not allow themselves to be sent out of the Tokyo 2020 competition as the country needs something to hold unto. American people needs something they can unite on, since the politics of the November 3rd, 2020 election and the coronavirus vaccination has torn them apart as never before and the chasm is becoming unbridgeable too wide. Losing the Saturday game to New Zealand is not an option and both the coach and the ladies need to understand this clearly as they walk into the pitch by on Saturday. Like Jesse Jackson would say, lets keep hope alive and pray that the God of soccer stays with them on Saturday. It is sad.
PURPLE RAIN, PURPLE HAIR: WHEN PURPLE FAILED RAPINOE.
ICHEOKU says even the purple lost its lustre in a 0:3 drubbing that Megan had to cover her face in shame. It is sad. Hopefully, USWNT will pick up their pieces and take it out on New Zealand come Saturday.
However, a mere eking out of defeat over the Kiwis will not be enough; only a statement-making resounding defeat will suffice in order to atone for the sin of the woeful loss to the Swedes. Go USWNT. Go Rapinoe, Go!
CHINA FLOODING: WORST THAN GERMANY?
ICHEOKU says although we might never know the actual number of people that perished in the flood because the Chinese Communist Party are too secretiveness, but the flooding in China definitely looks worse than the Germany flooding. Our heart goes out to the Chinese people who are itnaudated by flooding which has so far killed 33, a number definitely doctored considering that over 100 million people live in the worst flooded zone alone. It is sad what a world trying to pull itself out of devastating Chinese coronavirus is now being forced to deal with. It is sad.

JEFF BEZOS' "BEST DAY EVER " WAS A MERE TEN MINUTES TO EDGE OF SPACE.
ICHEOKU says it was the best day ever of his life, but to millions of starving peoples around the world, including women and children, as well as thousands of people who work for Amazon at barely a minimum wage, it was just an egotistic junket of wasted funds which would have been better applied to where it would have brought much added value benefit to human beings. But it is his money and he chose to spend it how he saw fit, in a ten minutes blast off to the edge of space at 66 miles high altitude.
The Jeff Bezos' rocket off was not quite popular among many of Amazon workers, some of who wished that he never came back but for the rocket to take him all the way to Jupiter or even Mars and for him to stay there forever. Some of them too would have preferred that Jeff Bezos reflected his gratitude for their labor, which paid for his vainglorious trip, through wage increases as mere "thank you" do not their bills pay.
Jeff Bezos gave $100 million each to Van Jones and Jose` Andres for their "courage and civility" but not even a dime in pay raise to the workers who are producing the wealth for him; probably because working for Amazon does not demonstrate "courage and civility". Yet when some of the workers in Alabama demonstrated some "courage and civility" by trying to unionize, the same Jeff Bezos fought it to a stand still. There is something somewhat sketchy about the doling out of this millions of dollars, but definitely a good payday for both lucky fellas.
ICHEOKU says compared to Richard Bronson's Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin was rather cramped and does not have enough clearance for the weightlessness somersault maneuver. The Virgin Galactic plane-like model is of a better design than the circular Blue Origin which sequestrated every person in the same tight space. Anyway, the opportunity which Jeff Bezos provided the awesome 82 year old astronaut Wally Funk to finally make her dream of going to space come true was indeed very commendable. It was good that the team safely launched and safely made it back to earth. Congratulations to all of them, including those who made it possible.
GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM WILL NOT BE RECALLED.
ICHEOKU says the Republican Party in California has nobody who could beat Governor Gavin Newsom come September 14th, 2021 scheduled recall election. Not Larry Elders, not transgendered Caitlyn Jenner and not any of those unknown quantum lining up to stake their hat in the game. So, on September 14th, Californians will vote to retain their hardworking governor and say no to those wannabes and that they are right by their Governor Gavin Newsom.

HAITIAN PRIME MINISTER CLAUDE JOSEPH FORCED TO STEP DOWN.
ICHEOKU says whether it was the same country or countries and/or the cabal inside the Haiti security organization which masterminded the assassination of President Jovenel Moise that sent him the "cease and desist" notice, their message definitely got through to the acting Prime Minister. They spoke to him in a language which he understands and he understood very clearly that they meant business and that they are not joking when they threw their weight behind his opponent.
The former interim Prime Minister Claude Joseph have always known that it was the "wishes" of the late President Jovenel Moise that Ariel Henry become the new prime minister. The Prime Minister also have always known too that it was in the "best interest" of Haiti that there is just one recognized authority in Port-Au-Prince and that having two people struggling for power as Haiti's Prime Ministers is not in the "best interest" of Haiti. So what suddenly changed that jolted him in such a manner that he lost his will to soldier on and continue the struggle for power? What forced him to finally step aside, as ICHEOKU is not buying the "I was not pressured into steeping down" malarkey.
It is either they read him the riot act or his role in the assassination of the president became quite evident and they used it to blackmail him into dropping his ambition. It is evident too that a man who was only some few hours ago, emphatically contending that he is the sole legitimate authority in Haiti power structure, that Ariel Henry was not sworn in and therefore lacks the authority of State, could not just suddenly make a u-turn, change his mind, and now say that Ariel Henry was the "last and final wish" of the late president and that he wants to honor and respect it. He was definitely prodded as there is always more than meets the eye in power politics. But whatever maintains Haiti internal security and prevents the country from plunging into a complete cataclysm is a welcome development, however achieved.
However, the United Nations Organization needs to step in and take over the investigation of the assignation as the current "investigation" might not get to the root of the assassination. A consortium of international investigators drawn from Russia, China, EU, UK, America and some African countries should be raised and put in charge of the investigation, if the world wants to know who actually signed off on the assassination of the Haitian President. Presidents do not just get killed like that and Haiti being within the United States of America geographical sphere and political influence, it does not make sense that all the planning, mercenaries and weapons movements logistics as well as money transfers could go undetected except they were intentionally allowed to slide.
So, without an expansion of the investigation to include the participation of other outside countries, whatever current investigation that is being carried out might also be swallowed by the same sink hole which swallowed and made it impossible to detect all the road traveled, prelude to the assassination. A story has come out too that the president made many frantic "save his life" calls to Haitian security outfits but none was responded to within the over thirty minutes that elapsed between his first call and his assassination. Why would a presidential protection force and its backup be so faraway removed from a president's residence that it took them over thirty minutes to respond at gun fired SOS mayday calls by the president. It is also on record that none of his security detail and member of the presidential guard was killed or even wounded defending the president. No pictures have emerged either of the blown up doors, both to his home and his bedroom. So, who is fooling who and who is covering up the true story.
ICHEOKU says strongly believes that the wife had a heads up about the attack otherwise why was she not also similarly "riddled with bullets?" She was also conveniently, "coincidentally" outside the bedroom at such ungodly hour of the night when those "gang" struck. What was she doing outside their bedroom since she couldn't have gone to use the bathroom at the exact moment and most master bedrooms are usually ensuite. Why would the assassins leave an eye witness? Why would they allow her to choose where she wants her own gun shot wounds? On her arm and thighs, all superficial glazing wounds without any serious bone and/or major arterial damage. It needs the suspension of disbelieve, the circumstances considered, to accept that the wife was not complicit in the assassination.
It is sad listening to the narrative that some "gang" carried out the assassination as it is increasingly becoming obvious that it was a foreign power sanctioned palace coup just to get rid of President Jovenel Moise. Further, the story that one of the assassins was on phone with a third party who was helping him identify the president is a tale by the moonlight balderdash. First President Jovenel Moise is a world wide recognizable public figure; second, he is a very tall person even bothering on being lanky; and third, no other male will be sleeping inside his master bedroom in his own home and only man was found in the bedroom. It is also given that through the planning, training and rehearsal stages, that so many videos and photos of him were extensively circulated, shown, studied and memorized by the assassins.
So, it is a baloney trying to once again hoodwink society by throwing the focus off his wife with this bunkum narrative that one of the assassins was on phone with a person helping him to identify the president. They did not dynamite the doors, so who let them in? The wife was in the corridor by the doorway entrance to their bedroom watching her husband get assassinated. How could her late husband be frantically making calls for security to come to their aid and she was busy milling around in the corridor. At least, common sense would have required her to seek a place to hide, even if inside the closet or in the bathroom or in the toilet or even underneath the dinning table. Lastly, how could a home of a president not have an escape duct or a hardened and reinforced hiding place of temporary shelter pending the arrival of the summoned SOS.
Anyway, the story so far coming out of Port-Au-Prince challenges every logical deduction and reasoning. But the stepping down of interim Prime Minister Claude Joseph, whose 30 days extended term of June 15th expired on July 15th, is still a good development regardless. At least, it has reduced tension between his group and the Ariel Henry's group; and has generally removed some steam in the boiling conundrum of Port-Au-Prince. Now, let Haiti bury their slain president and hopefully expand the ongoing investigation by inviting other countries to participate in it. This is the only way they can get to the root of the matter and indeed truly unravel the real forces behind their president's assassination. It is sad.
