Therefore, Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka and Jadon Sancho should not be singled out and pilloried just because they were unlucky and couldn't convert their penalty kicks during the England v Italy UEFA EURO 2020 finals. It was not deliberate and it was not for lack of patriotism or lack of love for their English side; they played their hearts out, came a long way in the tournament and they hungered to win the championship just like any other English person including those knuckleheads who are now bullying them for their unlucky kicks.
Stuff do happen and sometimes even the best in a field does not have the best day and so were the three great English players. It happened that their lucky star dimmed at that very crucial moment when they approached the ball and took the kick respectively. Those decrepitudes harassing these three players should understand that it was only a game, nobody died and that losing a game is not worth lynching anybody on social media for. Those people should be happy that England even made it all the way to the finals, their repeated come back from goal down, considered.
It is good that these hate filled people are in the minority, but it goes to show that the fight against racism should be taken into the greater English society and not merely reflected in the fleeting seconds example of kneeling on the field. ICHEOKU agrees with Southgate that games are won and lost together. Say no to racism; reject and condemn the attacks on those three black players because despite the color of their skin, they are still English and they love their country. ICHEOKU says remain strong Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka and Jadon Sancho as what they went through, many got it worse and some were in fact even actually lynched, but the good new is that progress in still on course. It is well.

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.
