ICHEOKU says before too long it will happen, as women know how not to allow each other steal the shine off them or take them out of the spotlight. Old lady Madam Speaker will definitely not allow the newbie Ocasio-Cortez to eclipse her shine in the Congress, not as long as she remains Madam Speaker with power to do and undo.
It will be only a matter of time and the continuing media interest in Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, before Nancy Pelosi shows her who is the boss, the real deal in the Congress. But until then, it will seem that the House of Representatives now has a new bride, the darling of everyone, regardless their reason, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

But until then, it will seem that the House of Representatives now has a new bride, the darling of everyone, regardless their reason, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
The Congresswoman from the State of New York is the new chic on the bloc and everyone in Washington DC knows it; as every gaddam person in the media is now swooning to get a date with her. What a whirlwind of a media blitz it has been for her within the last few weeks. A gift that keeps on giving for any politician, such that so many of her colleagues are dying for a minuscule of the attention being showered on her and will soon start getting jealous of her and with it comes the Satanic envy. Every where you turn, every channel you change to and every newspaper and magazine you rifle through, as well as radio, it is the same refrain, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; and you wonder when will the honeymoon be finally over, if ever. It is America and Americans are usually giddily excited with new things, novelties, especially such a storied tale of an American dream come through. A Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who went from her waitressing job in a bar, to becoming an elected member of the United States of American Congress; the youngest person ever elected to Congress that is, and within her very first time foray into politics as a candidate for any office. ICHEOKU says what a feat.
Like President Donald John Trump like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as both non career politicians struck Americans like a thunderbolt and with it shook the establishment order of politics. They invited themselves to the power party and took the center table and are unapologetic about it too. They breached every protocol of climbing the ladder of political power structure and defied the otherwise known conventional reprimand of "wait for your turn" which is usually associated with politics and did the unthinkable, displaced career politicians. Both, now have the bulls-eye tattooed on their backs, as career politicians and the establishment politicians see their accomplishments as a slight to everything they hold sacred in politics and they will be angling to take their pound of flesh and bring both of them down in a banging flash.
It will only get nastier and messier as both Trump and Ocasio-Cortez continue to get the publicity and attract the following which has made them the two most popular politicians in America, if not the entire planet earth. Thus begging the question, for how long will Madam Speaker tolerate having the spotlight taken away from her and put up with being displaced in the media by this newbie, her epicurean perch as the most powerful woman in politics in America, considered. ICHEOKU vouchsafes, not for too long and when she strikes, it is going to be venomously poisonous.
But until that death bite, ICHEOKU is hopped on the ride, as Americans are staying tuned to the saga of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and hopefully will watch her redefine the Democratic Party and remake it in her own image. So far so good, as she is succeeding and her entertaining value is phenomenal too. She is definitely a breath of fresh air to the swampy old gang, some of who has been in Washington DC long before the 29 year old Alexandria was even born. She is a millennial original and her fellow Utopian dreamers are attached, attracted to both her message and her image. But Nancy Pelosi is definitely not finding it funny, both being displaced from the center page and having to share the spotlight with ACO. ICHEOKU says cannot wait for the showdown between Nancy Pelosi and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to begin, even right at this minute. It will be fun to watch them go at each other, clawing and hair-pulling, included. ICHEOKU says Nancy, please move over as Alexandria is here.

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.
