GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.

MAGA LIVES ON: NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER!

TWITTER IS BORING WITHOUT HIS TWEETS. #RestorePresidentTrump'sTwitterHandle.


WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

EL CHAPO GUZMAN CONVICTED: AN INGLORIOUS END OF A DRUG LORD.

ICHEOKU says the question remains, was It worth it afterall that after all these greed fueled madness of nearly 18 long years, that the once most powerful underground drug lord, whose reign of terror eclipsed the notorious Colombian Pablo Escobar, finally met his end. The don of the Sonara drug cartel, Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, is going away for life, never to come out except in a pine box coffin. 

A drug lord who was once feared for his ruthlessness and penchant for meting out slow torturous death by installments;  including that of his family members, but is now going away forever and for good. What a riddance. El Capo Guzman stands convicted on all ten Federal crimes charges and is facing a life sentence without the possibility of parole, which according to the prosecutor, there will be no escape and no return from, ever. 

Unlike the Mexican prisons from where he twice tunneled himself out, American super maximum security prisons, including the one in Colorado which is 200 feet below the ground, is to put it mildly, impregnable. Therefore, pulling off his trademark tunneling out of prison from there, will prove a daunting and extremely impossible task for El Chapo and will take him several life times of trying but still a mission not accomplished. If special circumstances, including thousands of Americans lives lost to his drugs as well as DEA agents killed in the course of finding him, are factored in, he might be looking at special isolation cell unit where he will be spending 22 hours alone in solitary confinement daily; possibly without any visitations, including by his beautiful model wife. 

ICHEOKU says many people facing his situation would pray to find a cyanid capsule to pop in following sentencing and make it quick instead of pining away to his eventual end which life prison sentence without the possibility of parole is.  Moreso, he stands no chance in hell of ever testing freedom or knowing a life near to anything he had before his arrest. A once richest man on earth worth in excess of $100 billion, who had smuggled and sold over 200 tons of drugs in America, and lived the life of the super wealthy and famous or rather notorious, with several palatial mansions and other perks of life, to now end it in a tiny 6 by 12 cell with fully restricted movement and under round the clock surveillance, must not be the way he had planned to spend the rest of his life on earth. But for his crimes, Joaquin Guzman deserves all that he gets, plus more; admitted he has entered the history books as a drug lord of record, who alongside Osama Bin Laden, took America's best to track down and bring to justice. What a life.
