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

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.

IBRAHIM BADAMOSI BABANGIDA (IBB), ATTACK OF THE GENERAL?

For crying out loud, it appears that disgruntled Nigerian gestapo-generals are suddenly conflicted with their conscience and are now speaking out? Icheoku asks them, what suddenly came over you and what have become of you lately? First it was Yakubu Gowon who lamented the disappointment by the political establishment who has caused the polity so much pain that they are fast losing faith in democracy? Now the evil genius himself, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida has added his hollering voice, barking about lack of medical services in the country? Icheoku says, when coup-plotting generals start to shout, their minions in uniforms may be getting their subliminal message that it is ok to strike; and President Umaru Yar'Adua must be wary of these midnight wolves as it portends danger?
As head of a government-kidnapping and hijacking military junta for eight years, Icheoku asks, what did Ibrahim Babangida do to develop medical facilities in Nigeria? Nothing! Nada! Zilch! Some years later after he was disgraced out of office by June 12th, he is now preaching against "convenient overseas' treatment" by some government officials? What a pathetic hypocritical scumbag, this fox of a military man is? He is not called the evil genius for nothing as his conniving and contriving double-faced Janus of a person becomes obviously manifest, each time he tries to take a faulty step towards his futile rehabilitation before the Nigerian people. That this gospel of anti-overseas treatment is coming from a son of a gun, who himself gave impetus to the practice; and having himself, just returned from one such overseas medical checkup and treatment in France is mind-boggling. This is a man whose penchant for staying alive to enjoy his looted money from Nigerian treasury is such that he is phobic of any pain no matter how mild; that he jets out to check it out? That he is now antagonising other government officials who compete with him with the practice he institutionalised is a cause of concern especially as to his mental health? If Icheoku remembers correctly, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida, as then Robbin Hood of Nigerian government went to the America Hospital in France for radiculopathy surgery; wherein Domkat Bali, before he was humiliated out of office, came back from visiting him in his hospital bed to report that Babangida is doing ok?
This is a man who taught Nigerian government officials how to be callous, mean, base, to loot the treasury, kill people with parcel bomb, annul free and fair elections, wipe away oppositions, frequent overseas for medical treatment? Here he is now, preaching dearth of medical facilities in Nigeria? He sure truly lives up to his alias "Maradoner? Icheoku says, were this mallam to look in the mirror he would readily see that he was addressing himself instead? Ibrahim Babangida annulled the freest and fairest election ever conducted in Nigeria and such is his pariah-state now in Nigeria, except for his praise-singers, that what late MKO Abiola once said concerning him, "with a friend like IBB no one needs and enemy", has made him a denigrate person of Nigeria? Now, this self-acclaimed prince of Minna has opened his gap-toothy mouth to advocate the development of medical facilities in Nigeria which he never found necessary to do while in power for eight long years? A power he stole through the brigandage of a military coup de tat? What a despicable person, this mallam is and he finds a place where he is still allowed and recognised to speak; and on such a solemn occasion as Olikoye Ransome Kuti's memorial lecture? Icheoku asks, IBB when you had the opportunity, what did you do to provide and/or improve medical services in Nigeria and you had the money then due to the gulf war oil windfall?
The only reason people like this snivelling wicked man from Niger State still thrives is that Nigeria is not a civilized place otherwise he would have since been put away for all the atrocities associated with his regime? First was his treasonous forcible take over of government, then came the killing of Dele Giwa, Mamma Vasta, Gideon Orka and crew; followed by the looting of Nigeria treasury of $12.4 billion dollars; also for refusing to answer to a constituted authority of the Justice Oputa commission and lastly, for conspiring with Sani Abacha to take over government by not retiring him alongside, when he was pressured to hand over power to weakling Ernest Shonekan? On any of this count, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida would have been sent away for a long prison sentence if not to the execution stake; but no he is in Nigeria, a country where criminals reign supreme and now he is talking?
In his offensive statement, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida said, “If by now those who are highly placed to develop medical facilities in the country find it very convenient to go on medical examination overseas, then something is fundamentally wrong". To which Icheoku responds, Ibrahim Babangida wasm once highly placed as the head of a military junta in Nigeria, but failed to do something? Again, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida had opportunity to develop medical facilities in Nigeria but his wickedness blinded him and he also failed to do so? Further, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida personally, finds it very convenient to go on overseas medical checkup/treatment, and he just recently came back from one in France? It is obvious that Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida has now finally confirmed what the whole world has known all along, that something is fundamentally wrong with him; as no greater tragic-personality in Nigerian history exists, other than himself.

Our advise is that all these grumpy old retired Nigerian generals should let the polity be, as they have been traumatised enough by them and their inhuman actions when they had power. Please Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida, Icheoku admonishes you to hush as you do not have the moral standing to address such issue as medical health services in Nigeria, since you ignored it when you had the opportunity and means/resources to do something about it. Nigerians are tired of you and your devilish ways and hence pray that you disappear, like we advised your brother in coup planning Yakubu Gowon, into the doldrums. Nigerians do not need any advise from their former nemesis whose liberties while in power was rather excessive and draconian? If this is an effort at your rehabilitation, IBB, then you are stuck as your consultants are doing a heck of a shoddy job. You cannot rewrite history and this your very attempt at lampooning "convenient overseas medical treatment by officials" is simply too ironic, coming from a pharisee like you. Away with IBB, the evil genius and his advise!
