ICHEOKU says the West might be thinking that once President Vladimir Putin takes Ukraine that he will be pacified into contentment and abandon his current military expedition in Eastern Europe. But the West is mistaken because when the Russian strongman is done with Ukraine, he will direct his "fired up" army to head West and replicate what they did in Ukraine in all the other former Soviet countries. The unleashed Russian red army is not returning back to Russia until a new Berlin Wall is erected in Germany.
He had the effrontery to invade Ukraine because he is convinced that the West has lost the appetite for fighting wars due to their new woke-centric political-cultural disposition. It is an opportunity which he waited for a long time and having assessed the too level-headedness of the present crop of leaders in the West, decided to strike now while his iron is still hot. He will use the opportunity, enhanced by the apparent lack of interest in the West for war, to take everything back: all the former Soviet countries and he will expend the entire Russian military force, if need be, to accomplish the objective.
Unless the West is counting on taking on a "tired and war-weary" Russian military by the time President Vladimir Putin shifts his focus on NATO countries, it is better for the West to enter the fray now that Ukraine has not yet fallen. Ukraine is the biggest and strongest of these former Soviet countries and if it falls, other smaller ones will be a mere walkover for the rumbling Russian war machine, with or without NATO resistance. The Russian Red Army is on the march, on a mission to recover Soviet territories and having been unleashed, will continue rumbling until they accomplish all their given military objectives or are violently stopped and humiliated in defeat.
It is regrettable that the West which prides itself as defender of the bullied and protector of values dear to the West, including democracy, is still pussyfooting around and second-guessing itself about sending troops into Ukraine. A little country is being pounded into the ground by Russia and the West is hedging whether to assist the little country defend itself from the unprovoked and premeditated, atrocious, ferocious and scorch-earth bombardment, being wrought on them by Russia. It is a common saying that when your brother is in trouble, you render assistance or is the West saying that Ukraine is not their brother or that Ukraine is not white enough to be deserving of such help.
All the weapons and equipment belatedly being sent to Ukraine by the West will amount to nothing if Ukraine falls. All the resistance being shown by Ukraine will also amount to nothing should President Volodymyr Zelensky unfortunately lose his life. He is the indisputable arrowhead and global face of the resistance, and the reason Ukrainian people are giving it their all and trying everything possible to defend their country. They have held the Russian invaders off for over one week and have proved themselves a worthy adversary to the Russians. It is about time the West acknowledged their great peril and sent in troops to help them.
The West will have on their hand the blood of Ukrainians being slaughtered and slashed to pieces by Russian bombs and shrapnels. The West will also share in the blame for all the destruction which Russia is levying on Ukraine, in their attempt to wipe out all the beautiful structures dotting the landscape of Ukraine. What cogent excuse will the West give for not helping Ukraine, watching Ukraine pounded into smithereens despite putting up a stellar resistance and eventually falling? The "Ukraine is not a member of NATO" excuse is no longer germane nor acceptable; at worst, the West should make an exception for Ukraine based on humanitarian grounds in order to prevent further carnage and loss of human lives.
Will President Vladimir Putin go scot-free or be put in handcuffs as a war criminal? Will the world ever forgive him for the wanton destruction he is causing in Ukraine? Will the world still deal with him when these hostilities finally end? Why has the Russia military not overthrown Putin yet or just put a projectile into his cranium and get the Putin trouble over? Why are Russian generals still tolerating this madness, obeying his unlawful orders to attack, kill, maim and destroy their innocent Ukrainian brothers and neighbors? The West must seize every Russian asset and monetary reserve anywhere found around the world and hold them in trust for the eventual reconstruction and rebuild of a post war Ukraine.
Ukraine could use more snipers and sabotages and change their war tactic from conventional to a guerrilla hit and run warfare; and incrementally wear the Russian invaders down. Lacing all the vodka in Ukraine with cyanid should also be on the table as such will help reduce the number of those murderous, cold blooded Russians and let their body bags mount. Lastly, no matter the cost, in losses in human and materials, President Vladimir Putin must never be allowed to declare victory in Ukraine and at best, a pyrrhic victory. The experience of the USSR army in Afghanistan should serve the Russian army in Ukraine and let Putin be forced to eat his humble pie as a sore loser. Hopefully, he will die a completely isolated, sad and most loathed man in the world. What a pitiful vermin, a little elf of the Kremlin with Bonaparte syndrome.

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.
