ICHEOKU says those questioning any move by the president to invoke martial law to fix what was broken on November 3rd should have questioned the obvious irregularities witnessed on November 3rd, including the abrupt stoppage of votes counting midway and the failure to announce the result of the election on election night as was traditionally the case. Those who demand equity must do equity and they cannot be one-sided in the current contention about the stolen election. Those who rigged the election attacked American democracy first, so an attempt at rectifying what they did should not be seen as anti American democracy move. Rather it is a step in the right direction and the correct thing to do as any other act to the contrary would only amount to condoning the illegality. Better still, there should be a do over election in those contested five swing states in order to have an acceptable meaningful resolution to the current impasse. These "lovers" of American democracy cannot love election rigging but at the same time frown at the president's resolve not to condone it. It is action and reaction.

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.
