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.

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

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.

YOUR PEOPLE ARE KILLING MY PEOPLE - MUHAMMAD BUHARI, THE RESPONSE.

"Before I thank you for this visit, you have come to tell me something. I also want to tell you something and that something is to make an appeal. General Buhari has been a former Head of State, Brigadier Marwa has governed Lagos for some time and with credibility… so you are national leaders of this country. Even though, by accident of birth, you are from the North, you can be born anywhere; may be next time when I am coming to the world, I will be born in the North or the South-South. My appeal will be that effort must be made to unite this country and that will be in the best interest of all Nigerians." 

"I am appealing to the Arewa Consultative Forum, under which auspices our distinguished Nigerians are here; in recent times, they have been sending wrong signals to a number of us who believe in the unity and peace of Nigeria; you have been too critical of the efforts of the Federal Government. I am saying this because Nigeria, at this point, cannot afford to break and the words you northern leaders utter are very weighty, at the South here, we normally analyze them critically." 

"From what they have written in the petition, this government is completely blameless because we don’t interfere either with the judiciary or with the police functions. I always preach peaceful co-existence in Oyo State and Nigeria as a whole. We are all Nigerians and that is what we have been preaching all along and we shall continue to be Nigerians, no matter the present or immediate problems which will be solved by the grace of Allah. I want to say also that we really have to appeal to our people, the itinerant Bororo people, that they should observe less aggression. It is not good, it is not right just coming from somewhere then you just pass through farm lands cultivated may be with the person’s life savings and then over night everything is gone. That is not right, even Allah does not approve of that." 

"We even wonder when they talk about this people carrying dangerous weapons, I say do they really believe in Allah? When you just take life like that and go away! Are we not forbidden not to take human life? So I think General Buhari, General Marwa, you have to be educating them… It is my pleasure to inform you that at the Presidential Lodge, we have made some arrangements for refreshments so that before you go we can refresh together.” - Oyo State Governor Lam Adesina. 

Icheoku says the response by then Oyo State Governor Lam Adesina to then citizen Muhammadu Buhari led team of Northern Nigerian Fulanis, who came for an explanation over a clash between Fulani cattle rearing terrorists and local farmers of Oyo State. Some of the Fulani invaders lost their lives in the fight and Muhammadu Buhari had come to find out why Lam Adesina's people of Oyo State killed his cattle rearing terrorists Fulanis. Muhammadu Buhari also demanded to know why the governor did not influence the outcome of the judiciary and security apparatus in Oyo State that determined arrested Oyo State survivors innocent and set them free. According to insiders, Muhammadu Buhari and his team of arrogant Fulani honchos were so incensed that they stormed out of the meeting, rejected  the offered courtesy light refreshment and went back to Kaduna. They were described as "they came in angry and left bewildered" because Lam Adesina did not cower down to them. 

Icheoku posthumously commends Lam Adesina for standing tall at the hour of great need in defense of what is right. Icheoku also condemns the ever-angry Muhammadu Buhari for being so angry to storm out of his host governor and  for declining a good faith light refreshment invite. Icheoku says this should be the guiding template for every Southern and Middle Belt governor in the current standoff with these wandering vagrants Fulani invaders, whose pastime is the wastage of human lives and agricultural endeavors. Enough of these uncircumcised mullahs parading themselves as lords of manor in Nigeria. 

Like Lam Adesina rightly articulated, those Northern elites should stop exploiting their illiterate nomads; and instead, educate them on the proper ethics of living together in a civilized society. They should also work hard to enthrone peace in Nigeria and stop thinking that they are untouchables, whose wish must alway be forced on the rest of other Nigerians. Nigeria belongs to all the people currently within its geographical estate; and until something happens to dilute  the arrangement, every Nigerian must feel and remain equal while freely living together without undue pressure from anyone including these Fulanis of Nigeria. 

Summarizing, Lam Adesina informed Buhari that Northern Fulani should guard their utterances; make effort at unity; educate their nomads to stop their vandalism of farms and livelihoods of others; stop their wanton killings of other Nigerians; stop carrying dangerous weapons and then of course be tutored well on living together in a civilized manner. Icheoku says the whole truth and nothing but the truth; or is any of these stipulations too big a thing to ask for? Now Nigerians know who is instigating and causing all these Fulani cattle rearers terrorism in Nigeria. 

Icheoku says only the truth shall save us all in Nigeria and Lam Adesina spoke the truth when he read the riot act to Muhammadu Buhari and his team of Fulanis. But will the Fulanis do some introspection and understand that they are the reason for all the troubles in Nigeria with other Nigerians. They plan and carry out all coups in Nigeria and they are steeped in disrupting governments in Nigeria too. Their nomads also cause all these cattle problems in Nigeria resulting in damaged agricultural livelihood as well as loss of human lives too. Icheoku reiterates that baring their change of attitude, the only option left for other victimized Nigerians might be to confront them and forcefully stop this their continuing nuisance.  Enough of this their mindset that drives their obstinacy or that makes them believe that they can visit on others what they will not tolerate or allow or is  tenable within their own enclave of Northwestern Nigeria. 

At worst, they should rear their cattle in their Northwest region. But they still sell those cows to the same people whose pasture and agricultural crops feed their cows insatiable appetite. Then you ask yourself what does Southerners benefit from this parasitic relationship? These Fulanis bring their cows to the South to raise them; their cows feed off Southern agricultural farmlands and cash crops; and they still turn around to sell these cows at very exorbitant prices to the same Southerners. So query, what is the return of investment for all these Fulani inconveniences to Southerners one would ask? Icheoku asks were Southerners to be lion rearers, would these Fulanis allow them to bring their lions to the North to feed on their cows? It simply does not make sense, never made sense and it is about time the South stood up to these Northerners and demand respectability. It is either we learn to live together as civilized people or let those who still want to hold unto their century old way of life to remain in their caves and leave others alone.
