Icheoku usually does not agree with the Otta deity but in the case of this letter, is leaning towards an agreement with him that it is a forgery? All surrounding circumstances and political ramifications considered, only two possibilities exist - either the letter is certainly not from him or it was foolishly wrote and drunkenly dispatched; otherwise why would a man with unlimited and unfettered access to the man he made president, prefer to convey such conspirator's thought via a written document instead of just jetting into Abuja in the middle of the night to personally discuss such divisive and polarizing matter with his boy at Aso Rock? This is the fork in the middle of the road where Icheoku got lost trying to apprehend the merits and demerits of the purported letter coming from Obasanjo.
Admitted Icheoku has not been privileged to previously see or receive a signed document from OBJ, nor do we claim expertise in deciphering signatures; but should it be conclusively proved in due course that Obasanjo was not smart enough to understand that he should not have written this letter under advisement, then Icheoku shall take away the title of "a fool at seventy is a foll forever" given to IBB from the same OBJ and hand it over to OBJ as the new custodian of the title. But that is where our position varies from what the general population is saying regarding the offensive discriminatory letter; especially allegedly coming from a man who have had the privilege of ruling the country - both north and south, on three occasions. If the letter is truly from OBJ, Icheoku says for Obasanjo to now want to use Jonathan to carry out discrimination against certain peoples of the country is unacceptable and should be condemned by all descent men.
But until the letter is conclusively determined by forensic science to be fake, which should be the primary goal now instead of the intimidating arrests of editors and journalists of the publication that first aired the news, Icheoku says both Obasanjo and the Nation as well as the tax-payers' paid security operatives should sheath their sword and meticulously unravel the puzzle. Their investigation should primarily be to find out if Obasanjo did or did not in fact write such letter; if he did not, then they can start the prosecution of the publishers for libel and defamation of character. But in the event it was determined that Baba Iyabo authored the letter, further steps should be taken to find out if Jonathan acted on it or the letter in any way influenced any of his recent firings and appointments. Finally, Icheoku asks once again, assuming Obasanjo wrote the letter, why did he choose to become so dumb as not to read in between the lines of the ramifications of such letter. But our guts tells us the letter was not Obasanjos as he is too clever by half to act so dumb.

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.
