NIGERIAN ELECTION CAMPAIGN 2019: ATIKU VISITS AND ICHEOKU RESTS.
ICHEOKU says pledged earlier that the day Abubakar Atiku travels to the United States of America and returns safely back to Nigeria, without being arrested by the FBI, ICHEOKU will back off from pointing the searchlight on him and allow the two Fulani brothers to battle it out in the coming February 16th, 2019 presidential election. What Olusegun Obasanjo started, ICHEOKU was prepared to finish, but circumstances have now intervened to pull the plug. ICHEOKU intends to keep his word as every receptacle person is expected to do and will now honor his commitment to cease and desist from any further Atiku expose`.
ICHEOKU will not even wait for Atiku to first complete the mission by returning back to Nigeria before performing his own part of the bargain. Therefore ICHEOKU says from today, January 17th, 2019, will no longer criticize Abubakar Atiku; and in fact, barring any major situation-altering development, will completely stay out of the political fray until Election Day, February 16th, 2019, when congratulatory message will be sent to the victorious party. ICHEOKU says has no dog in the fight nor beef with anyone, only that Nigerians make informed decision and vote right.
Whoever allowed the grotesque display of a town-hall meet, watched globally on January 15th, 2019, which assaulted eyes and insulted intellects, did President Muhammadu Buhari a very big disservice and disfavor. It was so bad that the other politician parties do not need any further campaign advertorials, but to just keep on running the performance on television and radio. The body language was awful; and the heavily labored effort at comprehending issues and rendering "answers" was simply ghoulish. It was literary so embarrassing that it served to push the president off and over the cliff's edge. If the president was dead, the performance dug his grave, lowered him into the earth and covered his corpse with a mound of dirt.
It was indeed very hard to watch and too pitiful to see. The world cringed, watching a real life human caricature that was barely hanging in there unto life, so heavily medicated with morphine and steroids that he could pass for a dead man talking. A zombie president, a talking dead and soliloquizing mummified president; and you wonder how functional his neurons still are, talkless of effectively running the affairs of Nigeria. He was incoherent, he was inaudible, he was incomprehensible, he was inarticulate and in fact he was unaware of his sense of self. ICHEOKU says President Muhammadu Buhari, literary does not have a sound mind anymore and should be declared incapacitated by reason of a debilitating sickness which has rendered him vegetated. He was lost in oblivion and was indeed a pitiful spectacle to behold, that whoever was responsible for putting him on television deserves to be fired since yesterday.
ICHEOKU says the Buhari that was seen on television is definitely not the same Buhari that ran and won election in 2015. While ICHEOKU is not ascribing to the needless distraction of a fantastical Jubril el Sudani, but maintains that the treatment which Buhari received in London did not work. Rather, it messed up with his faculties and turned him into a ghoulish figure, the ghost of his former self. The original Buhari is no more and what remains now is but a ghost of his former self and ghosts belong in the realm and not in Aso Rock. It was indeed bizarre and so unsightly to sore eyes, that even good eyes popped wide open in bewilderment and great unbelief, that this is the apparition who is running the affairs of Nigeria.
ICHEOKU says gleaned from sources that the living-dead, mechanical display witnessed, which was seen globally, finally forced the issue and made the White House to sign off on the lifeless one and green-lighted the Atiku's visit, by guaranteeing his safe trip. However, this is not to say that Atiku did nothing wrong nor had a pending case, but that the greater good of avoiding a catastrophic humanitarian crisis in Africa's most populous nation weighed heavily in the mind of Washington DC; and they decided on a waiver instead. It was overall, a well considered trade off.
Anyway, ICHEOKU will not waste any further time on the nitty-gritty of what transpired that preceded Atiku's undisturbed arrival to America, nor will in anyway seek to diminish its significance as a very big boost to Atiku's presidential quest. It is now time to leave what is written on a vehicle and just enter the vehicle, because if you pay attention to how sausages are made, eating sausages might become too difficult to do. The FBI red carpet reception was a serious issue and it dogged every of his step until now that the fog has been lifted and finally dissipated with this visit. It was on the strength of it, because it was true, that ICHEOKU had always said that Atiku will "NEVER" be elected president of Nigeria. This Washington DC visit is definitely another case where "Never say Never" is quite apposite.
Be that as it may, unlike APC, ICHEOKU keeps his words, as honorable people do or at least expected to do. ICHEOKU's word is his bond. ICHEOKU says watched Rotimi Amaechi's secret video and have also closely followed Buhari's activities since he returned back to Nigeria following his long hospitalization in London; but nothing ever raised more concern and alarmed ICHEOKU so much as his gothic town-hall meet. It definitely served as the last straw to break the resistance and the Washington DC trip capped it off. ICHEOKU says was working on so many articles and had planned them through till the February 16th, but they are now moot; as the effigy, scarecrow, mechanical tin man display was indeed so overwhelming, that it will amount to being unconscionable not to call it out.
However, this is not ICHEOKU's endorsement of anyone, but that a pledge made be kept. Hopefully, the new promises now being made by the candidates will be kept and that Nigerians will finally find the elusive succor this time around. There was nothing personal with what went down and nobody hired nor paid ICHEOKU for it; just that ICHEOKU wishes motherland the best possible outcome from its legion of challenges, especially its recurring decimal that is ineptitude leadership. Also there is nothing for ICHEOKU to apologize for as conscience and truthfully speaking guided the effort, hence no previously made post will be taken down; as the made pledge was subsequent his visit to America.
Whatever happens, just be minded that every moment of the banters, although sometimes highly charged and very passionate, were indeed deeply treasured. ICHEOKU could not have wished for anything more and will do it all over again in a heartbeat faced with similar circumstances. On a parting note, please just remember to be guarded, as none of the two Fulani brother's victory is worth your losing your live or limb or even incarceration. Be smart in going about it. ICHEOKU wishes Nigerians a crisis free election 2019 and says may the electorates' verdict prevail IJN. So until Election Day February 16th, 2019, this is ICHEOKU signing off from election campaign 2019. All the best folks. One love. So long fellas. Salute
