ICHEOKU says the liberal on steroids city of San Francisco based woke-centric social media platform Twitter is long overdue for a new management and ownership. The platform has since deviated from its original purpose of providing a community town-hall styled space where everyone can freely communicate their views on issues. But the leftist lunatic fringe of the political divide have hijacked the platform and now uses undue pressure of threat to induce advertisers' boycott of the platform to force Twitter's management to exclude anyone who dares deviate from their stipulated talking points.
So, it was a great relief when the news filtered through that Tesla/SpaceX mogul Elon Musk wants to reposition the social media platform and restore it to its original glorious intent by purchasing the platform and taking it private. It is a decision which time has come and ICHEOKU commends Elon Musk for boldly taking the initiative, regardless of the current effort to sabotage his effort and stop him from acquiring the platform. ICHEOKU prays that Elon Musk will pull all stops to actualize his objective, including bypassing the directors and reaching out directly to the shareholders and making them an offer they cannot refuse, provided the end justifies the means.
The current bid by Elon Musk to acquire Twitter and the so far strewn obstacles reminds ICHEOKU of when Oracle's Larry Ellison made a bid for Peoples Soft. The directors refused to accept his deal and Larry Ellison took his offer directly to the shareholders of the company who lapped up his juicy offer and Peoples Soft's acquisition by Oracle became mission-accomplished history. So, poison pill or no poison pill, the acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk is still doable and should be pursued with every vigor and zeal that could be mustered as it is a noble cause, worthy fighting for in the interest of preserving freedom of speech.
No side of the ideological and political divide in America has a monopoly of good ideas or sound knowledge and judgment to warrant their lording it over the other side and impose their thinking and sometimes basal feelings on them. It is therefore fair that a town hall platform such as Twitter should independently exist without much noticeable bias for one side. It should a place where both sides can freely opine and elucidate their positions on issues without fear of being canceled or denied the opportunity to air their own views by being banned just for airing contrary opinion or viewpoints considered as not in conformity with "our community"; and you wonder whose community is it anyway and who constitutes the membership of this "our community" so called.
Anyway, as ICHEOKU awaits the outcome of the Twitter bid, will use this opportunity to urge Elon Musk to also consider buying Facebook and DirectV because both organizations are as guilty as Twitter in severely abridging freedom of speech in America. They are not impartial, they have shown serious bias against conservative viewpoints and they have become too woke-centric that every non conforming opinion is censured. DirectV has been yanking off from their platform media broadcasts that do not do as told, One America Network being the latest victim of their intolerance. This is a DirectV that could keep CNN which practically nobody watches, yet had the audacity to take OAN off their platform just because they refused to be dictated to.
Woke culture of intolerance is destroying everything once held sacrosanct to and sacred for the sustenance of freedom of speech in America. What is having a freedom of speech when contrary opinions are muffled and oftentimes, completely muscled out; their propagators canceled, their voices killed off and permanently silenced from ever being heard. The move by Mr Perfection Elon Musk to acquire Twitter and reposition it to its original ideals is definitely a smart good move in the right direction. ICHEOKU welcomes it as It will surely make Twitter better if not perfect and in the likeness of other Elon Musk's perfect products, Tesla and SpaceX. God's speed Mr Tesla/SpaceX in your bid to snatch up Twitter. #SellTwitterToElonMusk.

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.
