ICHEOKU says another historic photograph etched in time which has now earned its place in the annals of moments frozen in time. The green man or green soldier, thanks to night vision aided photography in the dark, now ranks with the photograph of the US Marines raising American flag in Iwo Jima and other such pictures which tell all the story behind them without uttering a single word. Anyone who sees such photograph automatically remembers and knows or understands exactly the story behind it. The last American service man leaving Afghanistan fully encapsulated the final withdrawal process and will now serve as the emblem of when America left Afghanistan.
The decision to finally end the twenty years escapade in Afghanistan is the right one as American people wanted it and American service men and women deserved it. It should have come a long time ago, but better late than never, admitted never late is always better and more preferred. Joe Biden will be remembered in history for having the courage to see the mission through despite all the pitfalls strewn on the road, some of them bothering on outright sabotage by the military industrial complex and their Deep State allies. Anyway, the Afghanistan green man have memorialized the mission and it was good that America did not suffer additional losses of service men and women as the mission finally concluded.
ICHEOKU says will wait for Joe Biden's address later before writing the last and possibly final piece on the Afghanistan withdrawal which have consumed everyone's time this last two weeks. Hopefully his address will be exhaustively insightful and that some people will be axed for the dust-up on America's image which was triggered by the haphazardness of the process. Somebody supervised the process and somebody also gave the order for the closure of Bagram base too early and before the mission was completed. Both persons have some questions to answer and both persons ought to be disciplined for the shoddiness in the execution of their assignment. Until then, lets honor the green man and kudos for a mission finally accomplished.

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.
