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

DO YOU?.

“What you believe in can only be defined by what you’re willing to risk for it." - Stuart Scheller.

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

'The best way to keep peace is to be ready to destroy evil. If you Pearl Harbor me, I Nagasaki you.' - Ted Nugent.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

"Birth is agony. Life is hard. Death is cruel." - Japanese pithy.

REPENT OR PERISH - POPE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.


FOR SAKE OF COUNTRY.


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.

NIGER DELTA WAR, JONATHAN GOODLUCK SHOULD RESIGN NOW!

Icheoku commends the chairman of the Nigeria Federal Government's Vision 2020 Sub-Committee on the Niger Delta, Prince Tonye TJT Princewill for resigning his office, in protest, over the massacre of his people of the South-South Niger Delta by the Nigerian government! What a selfless patriot and a real leader this prince is, who will not stand and watch the government which he is a member of, wantonly massacring his people! Well done, Tonye!
Based on this courageous display of qualitative leadership by Prince Tonye TJT Princewill, Icheoku hereby call on the Vice President of Nigeria Jonathan Goodluck and all remaining members of President Umaru Yar'Adua's administration from the Niger Delta and the entire South-South, to resign immediately in tow, in solidarity, and to protest the ongoing 'genocide of oil' in their homeland. Duty calls and Vice President Jonathan Goodluck must so answer by resigning now! No amount of gold in Aso-Rock is worth selling-out your people by abandoning them in this their time of dire need! If your power cannot be used to the benefit of your people, then why seek and hold it?
Ken Saro Wiwa was killed for oil and now what is left of the people of the Niger Delta are being killed-off, while Vice president Jonathan Goodluck is cozying up to the feudalistic mallams from the Sahara desert, in the name of being a loyal vice president? What manner of a man will be having a party while his house is ablaze but Jonathan Goodluck? Power is ephemeral and with what face will he return home to the Niger Delta area someday to explain why he stood akimbo while watching the northerners massacre his people? When has anybody killed off the Fulanis because they will not part with their cattle for a mere pittance? So why must it be the people of the Niger Delta South-South that must be forced to give up their oil because the oligarchs said so? Jonathan, your people are being annihilated, don't you get it?
Icheoku says, this ongoing carnage on "disposable" Nigerians must stop forthwith; otherwise let Nigerians review their continued existence as an entity? Enough of this bullshit from the north and by the north against a helpless peoples of the Niger Delta; whose only sin is that they are asking for a reasonable fair share of their own nature-endowed resources!
This is the time for all men in the Niger Delta to stand up and be counted as the northerners do not have any extra ball to be lording it over Nigeria, unchallenged? The Niger Delta/South-South governors should immediately protest the ongoing carnage in Abuja and threaten non-cooperation, if it does not cease immediately. Where are your souls Nigerians, that you should remain silent while fellow Nigerians are once again, being slaughtered or is Odi and Zaki-Ibiam not enough blood-shed already? The man died in him who keeps silent in the face of tyranny; are the men in Nigerians, all dead? Speak up, Icheoku commands you and end the onslaught in the Niger Delta now! Give to Niger Delta what is theirs and let them pay taxes on it to the federal government! It is the right thing to do! It is equitable! It is the practice all over the rational world and it is also commonsensical!
