ADAMU GARBA II: A PROSPECTIVE LEADER FOR NIGERIA.

MICHAEL WOLFE: A LYING MAKE IT UP AS HE GOES SCOUNDREL.

“Many of the accounts of what has happened in the Trump White House are in conflict with one another; many, in Trumpian fashion, are baldly untrue. These conflicts, and that looseness with the truth, if not with reality itself, are an elemental thread of the book. Sometimes I have let the players offer their versions, in turn allowing the reader to judge them. In other instances I have, through a consistency in the accounts and through sources I have come to trust, settled on a version of events I believe to be true.” - Michael Wolff, page 10, Fire and Fury - the book of fantasy and innuendoes, a hogwash bunkum penned to con readers out of their hard earned money. 

OPRAH WINFREY 2020: ONLY IN HER DREAM.

ICHEOKU says lunacy is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting different results. So once again has the Hollywood incestuous establishment gone agog and giddy that television talkshow personality, Winfrey Oprah, will be the liberals answer to MAGA's President Donald John Trump come 2020. But a trial will convince them, may be for the final last time, that they are indeed the minority Americans; and that what the Obamas, Joe Biden and the Clintons alongside the media hordes of America, could not together achieve, Oprah will but also labor in vain. 

White Americans are still in the comfortable majority in America and they seemingly have made a collective survival decision never again to toy with the destiny of their beloved homeland, by farming out the presidency to a minority, who is not fully vested in heart, body and spirit in the America ideals of their forefathers. But for this decision, then candidate Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton would have picked black Senator Cory Booker to be her vice presidential candidate; but she will not have any of that nor allow another black person within the corridors of power. The Clintons are as white American as anyone can get and they are fully vested in this agenda of keeping America as is; an America where who is in charge and in authority will not be in doubt nor questionable; and they will work to keep it so, regardless of the platitudes and facade they put up publicly because of political expediency. 

Yes, if Oprah dares, she will find out that her limitations are certain and that her show tanking following her endorsement of Barack Obama in 2008 is a testament of what Americans can tolerate of her. Yes indeed, the abrupt end of her Oprah Show on ABC was not for no reason as her ratings and viewership dropped like a freely falling stone, following that identification of her blackness by endorsing Barack Obama. 

ICHEOKU says so what if her name is Oprah Winfrey and so what if she once dominated the television air time gone by. That was then and this is now; and yes, Oprah Winfrey's magic is more of a nostalgia than a continuing future continuity. As intimated above, ICHEOKU is emphatic that a minority will never be elected American president again; at least not in the next following few decades. Worse come to worse, immigration laws will be drastically changed and citizenships revoked to make that frightful end impossible to ever berth again. This resolve is across the broader spectrum of white people, irrespective of their gender biases, age, religion, as well as party identifications. The bottom line is their survival as a people and they will do whatever it takes to still retain America, which they see as their own and the last remaining real bastion and center of excellence throughout the world and never to be taken away from their control. 

ICHEOKU says white Americans will fight to preserve their control of the only still remaining white "enclave" which political correctness has not totally subdued and where Islamists incursion is still held at bay, at least for the most part and not a ten thousand black Oprahs can change this paradigm. She will get her feminists liberated women's vote including large percentage of black women plus other television watching women, including some white women. She will probably also get a large of black males and plus some other males, including those hooked on something white males. But the rest of the plurality of Americans will neither vote for nor tolerate her as president; especially the remaining macho males of America who constantly see the erosion of masculinity in America which is largely orchestrated by and championed by a liberated Winfrey Oprah. 

But the good news is that Oprah Winfrey is smart enough and will know not to push her luck too far and will not run. But if she dares or is lured by the ovation of the moment to challenge the president come 2020, she will suffer a very humiliating defeat, the like of which no presidential candidate has ever had to endure before. She will not be elected president of the United States of America, period. She could be elected governor or Senator of the State of Illinois, but definitely will not win a nation-wide presidential election. But the druggies of Hollywood are spasmodic with excitement in their usual misconception, thinking that because they say so, it is so; and that because they think their Oprah will beat President Donald John Trump, the whole country will chorus Amen and act on it. But ICHEOKU says not so fast Hollywood and to curb their enthusiasm because a President Winfrey Oprah will never morph into a reality. Just a drug induced wishful dream. 

America will never elect black Winfrey Oprah president; especially not too soon following the disaster that was the other black president Barack Hussein Obama, who scared them shitless, trying to destroy America by his attempted make over of America. At most, she could win the traditional Democratic blue States of California and New York as Democrats usually always win; but that will not be enough to secure her the White House as Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton painfully found out last November. She will never win Texas, Georgia, Florida, Pennsylvania and any of the election swaying States in the union. 

She is a woman and she is black and she has rattled the cage of White people and they will never trust her with power over them. Her childhood story of being raped by her father and the fact that she is not married, not well educated and is an acute feminist extraordinaire are all negative points that will weigh against her candidacy. Therefore, in the battle of 2020 between President Donald John Trump and Oprah Winfrey, the president will roundly defeat her and as Senator Marco Rubio rightly pointed out, entertainment and winning the presidency are two different adventures because as candidate are forced to take a particular position on issues, friendship and admiration are lost and gained. Anyway, ICHEOKU appreciates Oprah Winfrey and the many things she has accomplished in her life; but advises her not to even think about it. 

STEVE BANNON: BUT WHY?

ICHEOKU says ordinarily, would have thought that one was dreaming a nightmarish scenario of a Steve Bannon's stab of President Donald John Trump. It definitely also sounded like a tale from the moonlight, except that it is true.  It is therefore condemnable that such a trusted advisor could turn out to be the Et tu Brute of the president. The reality of what just happened, the betrayal of the president by one of his closest confidants and chairman of his presidential campaign, Steve Bannon, is the mother of all betrayals and conspiracies ever seen since the November 8th 2016 election victory of the president. 

What a great betrayal, begging the question, does anyone have a friend in Washington DC; the reason many presidents take solace in dogs as the only friend that is trustworthy and which they can really trust without fear of being betrayed. ICHEOKU says if Steve Bannon could do this to President Donald John Trump, imagine what Julius Caesar must have felt when he turned around and saw Brutus drawing out his dagger from the stab which he had inflicted upon him. Imagine what our Lord and Master Jesus Christ felt when he learnt who his betrayer was, a trusted disciple Judas Iscariot. Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso felt same upon learning that his closest friend Blaise Campore has moved the forces against him. The same reason Nigeria's Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida summarily executed Mamman Vasta upon learning that he was planning a military putsch against his government. ICHEOKU says such must be the most painful thing to happen to anyone; an experience no human being alive and not the president, who is rightly incensed, should ever have to live to behold. 

Steven Bannon finally lived the part of his look - a disgruntled, disheveled and abandoned old lady with straggly hair, fat and dirty, bidding his time and waiting to strike a vengeance. A Mister Kiss and Tell; and you wonder, if Steven Bannon could be this wicked and mean, imagine what other things he must probably have been or is currently up to. Simply put, he is creepy, conceited and evil; certainly not the stuff warriors are made of. Steven Bannon has proved that he was not the warrior he had all along pretended to be; but a green snake in a green grass and he struck when he taught maximum damage would be inflicted on the president and you wonder why? Could Steve Bannon's attempted resurrection to relevance with the Alabama Senatorial election which went belly up, have been the reason? An election in which he first went up against the president's candidate, a tell tale sign of this treachery; but which he bungled and lost woefully and now this? Could this be his last remaining Holy Mary pass into relevance. 

ICHEOKU says not so fast Steve as he has now dug himself deeper into a cold doldrums of irrelevance. Steve Bannon leaked White House information as the president's political advisor and was forgiven. Steve Bannon went up against the president's candidate for Alabama senate seat and was forgiven; but this final betrayal is it. Steve Bannon cannot and can never be forgiven of this latest Fire and Fury betrayal. Steve Bannon has now become the number one pariah in America as neither the left nor the right nor the outsiders will henceforth accept him as bona fides. ICHEOKU says who in his right thinking mind will want to have anything again to do with such ratty, dirty, fat slob, who cannot even manage his personal hygiene properly. ICHEOKU says does not know about you, but snitches and betrayers deserve nothing short of public lynching and this particular sloppy slob, Steve Bannon, deserves every poisoned dart being and which will be thrown at him.

The worst type of enemy is the enemy within and which is masquerading as a friend, lurking and lying in wait just for an opportunity to creep close enough to within a striking distance of your jugular vein. Disgruntled is not sufficient to qualify Steve Bannon regarding what just happened. What he did is the real treachery and not the meeting which held inside Trump Towers. How dare he be this callous and brutal to a man who took him in and made him a national figure; only to so disappointingly watch his trust evaporate into the thin air by such crass and asinine betrayal of the worst kind. Where was Steve Bannon's loyalty; where was Steve Bannon's trust; both of which he totally and completely shredded into microscopic smithereens when he threw them out of the window of a 30,000 feet high altitude flying jet. 

ICHEOKU says does not care about what happened that pushed him; nor gives a damn about what could have incensed Steve Bannon into such a wanton act of cruelty; but to drive a knife into President Donald John Trump, especially at this time of him against the entire world, is simply put, unpardonable. ICHEOKU says with a friend like Steve Bannon, no one needs an enemy; not President Donald John Trump. Not even the Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton's dart was this poisonous and you wonder what could make a man to be so this wicked. First it was Judas Iscariot and Jesus; then came Brutus and Julius Caesar and now this dirty looking, haggardly and possibly smelly Steve Bannon, whose personal hygiene is definitely suspect. What made him commit this level of harakiri, disemboweling himself before Americans. Now he will succeed in driving President Donald John Trump farther away and closer to the swampy Washington establishment which he was trying to drain, thinking that he has the support and loyalty of Steve Bannon's types, only to now suffer such heartbreaking betrayal. 

Pathetic is not enough to describe Steve Bannon and if he has any candor left in him, he should pick up a magnum and blow his brains out in disgrace. Which hell will accommodate him and which friends does he have left or think will still want to have him around as a friend, after what he did to President Donald John Trump. ICHEOKU says Steve Bannon did not do right; and yes, the president was right that Steven Bannon lost his mind the day he was disgracefully fired from his White House job. A  gig which he should not have been hired in the first place, but for a president who took a now regrettable risk, bringing him so close to the seat of power and to him; and now this. What a pitiful human debris this particular Steve Bannon is. Hopefully, his wife will walk away from him, assuming he has a wife as no modern lady would stand a man looking that sloppy and so unkempt as a partner. Steve Bannon should go and hide his face in Hades, never to be seen again; at least as long as Team MAGA lasts. Pitiful. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR: 2018 IS HERE, HURRAY !

ICHEOKU says hope the New Year met you in good spirit, revved up and ready to go. So grab with both hands all that it brings along with it. All the best. God bless. Cheers.

MICHAEL NUE: AMERICAN NIGERIAN 419 KINGPIN BUSTED.

ICHEOKU says we have heard about Nigerian Americans; but American Nigerian is rather a rarity and when it exists, it is to be found in the underground world of obtaining by false pretense aka 419.  So it was that an American, a caucasian, a white man, was arrested for taking the notorious  Nigerian 419 scam to an entirely new heights. 

The police in Slidell Louisiana arrested Michael Neu, 67, an American advance fee fraudster posing as a Nigerian prince who has duped hundreds of people across America using emails scams.

This goes to show that not all the crimes usually attributed to Nigerians are afterall committed by real Nigerians; but sometimes by pretenders passing themselves off as Nigerians. Who would have believed such a story if not that this felon was busted, caught red-handed in his duplicitous conduct. Just ordinary folks giving Nigerians a bad name.

YUSUF BUHARI ACCIDENT: THAT RECORDS BE SET STRAIGHT..

ICHEOKU says once again taking out time to correct some misconceptions and misinformation currently spreading throughout Nigeria, especially the social media Nigeria world, about and concerning the recent motorcycle accident suffered by President Muhammadu Buhari's son, Yusuf Buhari.  Many false alarmists have spread the rumor that Yusuf was riding a Harley Davidson motorcycle and that the motorcycle cost him $1 million USD. ICHEOKU says nothing could be so far from the truth than both information. 

First the motorcycle which Yusuf had his accident with is not a Harley Davidson motorcycle; and secondly, Harley Davidson Motorcycle Corporation does not make a million dollar motorcycle in the course of its motorcycle manufacturing business. Most of its motorcycles are priced under $75,0000. However, it has made ONE ever one million dollar motorcycle in its entire existence and it was specifically designed and manufactured for a person, American artist Jack Armstrong.  ONLY ONE of the motorcycle  exists in the entire planet earth and it still belongs to the original owner. 

Jack Armstrong owns this one and only particular custom-made motorcycle, which he named the Cosmic Starship. He personally hand painted the motorcycle, using his exclusive cosmic exceptionalism, extreme colors and textures which were meshed into it.  It is a unique motorcycle which has been described as not just a motorcycle, but a pure artwork on two wheels. So Nigerians, ICHEOKU cautions to please thread softly and to stop spreading false and Fake News, which is ordinarily easily verifiable but for laziness of a people bent on propagating certain skewed narrative. 

Further, those wishing Yusuf ill should know that accidents do happen and it is not any person's specific. It happened to the president's son today and tomorrow it could be another person's son, including you that is reading this piece. So it is incredibly unbelievable that anyone should take delight in that the president's son suffered such a ghastly accident. A matter made more iffy because we all live in this funny world where  things we wish others has a magical way of finding their way back to us. But be that as it may, just be advised that Yusuf is but a son of President Muhammadu Buhari and not the president himself; and that none of us ever had a choice in which family we are born into. You can hate the president all you want, but please do not transfer the hatred to his innocent son, who was just being a teenager or rather a young adolescent and having good time, but unfortunately had an accident. ICHEOKU says may Yusuf Buhari have a speedy recovery IJN.

FFK WAS WRONG: TB JOSHUA DID NOT MAKE WEAH PRESIDENT..

ICHEOKU says felt scandalized by the revisionist Femi Fani Olukayode's attempt to rewrite history by arrogating to TB Joshua the election victory of George Weah in the just concluded Liberian presidential re-run election. Femi was on record boasting that it was TB Joshua who made George Weah's victory possible; which to many Nigerians who followed George Weah's last October's visit to the Synagogue was nothing but a tissue of lies. 

ICHEOKU is emphatic that TB Joshua neither saw the vision of George Weah's coming victory nor did he offer any special prayers of goodluck for George Weah, because before George's visit, his opponent, Joseph Boakai, had earlier made contacts with Joshua and they discussed or rather prayed for his own victory. This is the reason TB Joshua was coy in not directly praying for George Weah's victory specifically, nor made any affirmation to him; but cleverly passed the ball unto God's court as whatever God willed for Liberia. 

TB Joshua in his own exact own words said to George Weah: 

"My brother is here today because he loves his country and wants God’s choice for his country. He is not here to impose himself. What does God say about his country, Liberia? What is God’s opinion? That is why he is here. I am not favoring any particular candidate but will pray for “the will of God” to be done in the nation of Liberia. We are not herbalists or witch-doctors; we are people of God. God’s choice is our choice. We cannot pray against God’s will. Without God’s corresponding power, we cannot pray to Him. For every step we take – every movement and action – intimation comes first. There must be a suggestion from the Spirit to move before we move. If truly I am a man of God, I must hear from God – move or don’t move. The incumbent Vice President and your contender in the upcoming presidential run-off, Joseph Boakai, had also contacted me to request a meeting. God’s opinion is what we should seek in our country – simple! God is the Answer, the Final."

ICHEOKU says yet, despite this direct evidence of the answer which TB Joshua gave to George Weah, that the will of God will be done for Liberia, Femi Fani Olukayode is still gallivanting all over the place, deceiving some gullible Nigerians with his TB Joshua did it propaganda. Pitiful Femi and some Nigerians are listening to this his bunkum hogwash. SAD.

PATRICE NGANANG: BANISHED FROM CAMEROON.

Patrice Nganang, a dual Cameroon and American citizen, professor of literature and activist, was arrested during a trip to his motherland Cameroon by Cameroonian government. He was detained for several weeks, then released and banished; and asked never to come back to Cameroon. 

ICHEOKU says Africa is suffering a continent-wide political dysmenorrhea and in Cameroon sits one of the longest reigning head of government, a tin-god dictator called Paul Biya, who has been in government since 1984. He admits of no opposition nor criticism and you wonder what will it eventually take Africans to finally liberate themselves from their internal colonialists. How a single person will be ruling a country for over three decades is simply mind boggling. Away with despotism; chase Paul Biya away. What is the Cameroonian military waiting for to give Paul Biya the Robert Mugabe treatment? Do it now.

BUHARI'S PERFORMANCE OR LACK THEREOF: THE JOKE IS ON NIGERIANS.

ICHEOKU says what were they thinking when they voted him president of Nigeria in the first place. An ascetic who literally has nothing to show for as great accomplishments, other than his mercurial rise to the top in the Nigeria army through a favoritism based quota system; but was considered by Nigerians as their then now messiah and the man who will indeed Make Nigeria Great Again. ICHEOKU says really? 

ICHEOKU says it is only a jaundiced mind, which has been brainwashed beyond redemption, by those 419 miracles of riches Business Center Churches, who in the usual expectation of miracles, would have and indeed had expected a spectacular feat by President Muhammadu Buhari's presidency. Unfortunately, Nigeria is brimming with such mind-numb robots and they voted for him; only to now pretend that they voted for something else other than the man presently in Aso Rock and dishing out his meanness and cluelessness on the country. Otherwise, there were no indications that he was going to be a good president, as there were no prior history of great achievement nor a road traveled by him before, to suggest or point to a destination within sight, where a President Muhammadu Buhari would creditably take Nigeria to. But hopeless Nigerian romantics, fantasized along, regardless. 

ICHEOKU is not disappointed at President Muhammadu Buhari's performance so far because nothing wonderfully good was ever expected of him or from his government. Rather, such spectacular performance by him would have been the real rude shock; and not that a man who has no resume`of storied accomplishments did in fact not disappoint those who really knew him and knew exactly what was coming down the pike when Nigeria took that poison pill and elected him into office. Muhammadu Buhari has been around for quite some time that he is somewhat a fixture in the Nigerian political firmament. As a soldier, he was promoted rapidly through the ranks and for no apparent reason other than being from the Northwestern Fulani catchment area. As Governor of North Central State, he has nothing to show for as achievements; ditto his stay as Nigeria's Minister of Petroleum, right through to when he became Head of State and then chairman of the Petroleum Trust Fund. 

Why Nigerians decided to elect him president is not clear; except that they wanted to spite the face and cut off the nose in the process; and today the whole country is bleeding for that costly but otherwise avoidable mistake. So if he did not achieve much when he was younger and more vibrant; how any thinking person or people expected him to do much now that youth is no longer his companion is the surprise in the whole matter. No Nigerian was forced to vote for Buhari as their president in 2015 and he had on three previous occasions offered himself to Nigerians for the office but was resoundingly rejected each time. It was not until Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu pulled a fast one on Nigerians, sort of a 419 move, by assuring Nigerians that Muhammadu Buhari is now a "Converted Democrat" and that he will hold his feet to the fire of performance that Nigerians bought the snake oil which Tinubu sold them. 

Today, it is all regrets galore and a lot of buyer's remorse as a forlorn fog has since enveloped the country with people begging for 2019 to speedily come by so that they can, hopefully, jettison him from Aso Rock. But not too fast Nigerians, as the man in Aso Rock does not have any plans to leave nor would he allow Nigerians to stampede him out of the seat of power. It may not be that easy, admitted they can try as their are constitutionally empowered to do. 

Nigerians were led to believe that an old dog was capable of learning new tricks; and that the leopard can change its spots and they trooped out and voted for President Muhammadu Buhari during the last election; only to now turn around to complain that he has not kept his promises nor performed creditably well. ICHEOKU says really; and on what track records of his was this their great expectation base on? It is indeed those Nigerians who had expected great performance and who are now expressing disappointment in the mediocre performance of President Muhammadu Buhari who themselves need to have their heads examined. Their neurons must not have been firing well for them to have expected some productivity from a known real clueless one, who has nothing to his credit prior to this presidency to warrant such expectation. 

It is indeed laughable that any Nigerian expected President Muhammadu Buhari to be the best president Nigeria ever had or could have. It is the stuff delirium is made of; requiring the suspension of disbelief to really believe that anyone ever arrived at such a conclusion that a President Muhammdu Buhari was ever going to accomplish much. 

ICHEOKU says trying to understand an illiterate running a government is akin to trying to understand why an illiterate housewife or even a husband for that matter, is always contentious and intolerant of certain social behaviors that is ordinarily tolerated and acceptable within any given set up. Such people do not understand logic or nuances; nor are they equipped with the capacity to engage in clear thought and critical thinking. Big picture issues is not their strongest suit either and they greatly labor through sourced information and explanations. They lack vision and foresight; and worse of, their penchant to micro manage everything is legendary. They are not self assured, hence they are always suspicious of individuals around them and in their attempt to prove themselves, they end up over doing things. They easily reject wise counsel and are averse to people who know better than them being around them. They are reactionary and their inferiority complex often times make them obstinate to a fault, such that they often times discard proven solutions rather than be seen as taking instructions from some other party. They are also mean; extremely despotic and vicious. Their level of distrust of others is such that nobody dare have a contrary opinion around them. 

President Muhammadu Buhari is all the above, an illiterate, a certificate-less one for that matter. In the tier of illiteracy, President Muhammadu Buhari is a bottom dweller and it shows in a Nigeria that is today, totally subdued and laboring under a heavy load of mismanagement and bad governance. But Nigerians, instead of trying to proactively correct their Buhari mistake, having identified the root cause of his incompetence as illiteracy, are strangely rooting for yet another illiterate Abubakar Atiku and you wonder what would it take for Nigerians to learn their lesson. This is the strangest of the strangeness now unfolding in Nigeria that Nigerians are in fact trying to replace the pet dog with a pet monkey and you ask yourself are they not both four legged pets. ICHEOKU calls it the real madness which is unfolding in Nigeria presently, the feverish megalomania associated with an Abubakar Atiku being an alternative to Muhammadu Buhari. ICHEOKU says this is the height of great unthinkingness and it shows that Nigerians are impervious to correction and are too obstinate to learn from their past mistakes. 

The same people who foist the mediocrity that is President Muhammadu Buhari on themselves, are once again lining up behind another certificate-less man, Abubakar Atiku; and you wonder what is the difference in their minds between six and a half dozen. What is the guiding philosophy of a people, who repeatedly do the same thing over and over again, while expecting an alternate result? How else does any sane person explain Nigerians or is there something inherently wrong in their DNA that make them to self immolate; such that each and every time they have the opportunity to help themselves make things better, they end up self destructing. Madness could not have any better definition, outside the McNaughton's Rule, than what Nigerians perpetually and repeatedly bring upon themselves. How and why do they do it, nobody knows. But anyone clinging to an Atiku's presidency is part of the problem with Nigeria and such person needs to cease and desist henceforth from such errancy. If Nigeria ever stands a chance at greatness or indeed even survival, Abubakar Atiku is definitely not the vehicle to get us there. 

ICHEOKU maintains that the only reason President Muhammadu Buhari is a sub-par performer is that his brain is not developed enough to engage in critical and logical thinking; and peradventure have some understanding of principles of macro economics which drives the global economy. He is apparently constrained and indeed confined and confounded by some inherent factors associated with an undeveloped mind. He cannot think outside the box and he is afraid of venturing outside his well established comfort zone. He drives some level of security being inside his familiar territory and therefore being heavily holed in, finds it extremely difficult to venture outside his given set of primitive parameters.  But unfortunately for Buhari and his Nigeria, the rest of the world has since moved on from and away from the mindset which still philosophizes about Western Germany. It is his immersion in Stone Age principles of economic management and political governance that makes President Muhammadu Buhari to still want to micro manage Nigeria. 

The result is the noticeable stagnation in every facet of the country, because what worked in the 1980s does not, no longer works and cannot work in the 21st century 2015 to date. This is the crux of the matter, the mindset which is driving Nigeria with antiquated doctrines and principles, which is so stale and no longer applicable nor  compatible with modern economics management. The reason Nigerians are aghast at what their country has become under an inept leadership of a mediocrity known as President Muhammadu Buhari. As a matter of fact, the joke is actually on those Nigerians who were expecting water from a rock and good yield from a dry arid land; and who were expectant that a man with Buhari's sketchy track record of performance was going to suddenly transform into a great performer overnight. His lack of ability and capability was obvious before the election and right from day one has not changed; and the warning lights were everywhere solid red. But unfortunately, a people who have since disengaged their critical thinking and analytical prowess, and now believes in miracles of all kinds, thought otherwise; and it has come to bite them bigly. 

A society that has refused to be proactive in its affairs, but repeatedly engages in fire brigade approach of after the fact reaction to problem solving, can only have itself to blame for the hand being dealt them by repeated clueless and incompetent governments; that has somewhat become the curse of the Nigeria. Nigerians have as a matter of practice refuses to bolt the barn door to prevent the bull from escaping; but would rather chase it after it has escaped and you wonder why. Yes, many of them ignored the known incompetence and callousness of President Muhammadu Buhari and their hatred for the coward of Otuoke spurred them on and now look who is crying blue murder. ICHEOKU says not so fast Nigerians, because baring any intervention from the On High, President Muhammadu Buhari will remain president for the next five years until 2023. That will be a five long years for Nigerians to purify themselves of their finicky and lackadaisical attitude and learn to become proactive in driving their common destiny to an end which they indeed truly want and desire. 

So instead of complaining and whining about President Buhari's below par performance or overall lack of performance, let those Nigerians who were implicit in bringing about the Buhari presidency take a page from King David and put on sack clothes, throw some ashes  upon themselves and mourn their decision which brought about the current state of affair in Nigeria where nothing is literary working. Even the fact that Muhammadu Buhari was a brutal dictator would have been sufficient to disqualify him were Nigerians a conscionable people and in a working democracy. But not with a people who were bent on torpedoing any semblance of order or rightness which is headed their way. ICHEOKU actually finds it extremely apoplectic that some Nigerians are complaining about President Muhammadu Buhari's continuing callousness and lack of performance and had expected differently. What a display of riveting delusion to think or rather expect that a fully grown, nearly senile grandfather was capable of turning tricks. What a joke of a people, on a people and by a people. Pitiful Nigerians.

THE HUMAN SIDE OF BUHARI: A DOCUMENTARY OF ABSURDITY.

ICHEOKU says Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) in fact did President Muhammadu Buhari a great disservice with their documentary - The Human Side of President Muhammadu Buhari, a tacit admission that the man who Nigerians elected their president is in actuality a half human and a half beast. The necessary implication being that the president rightly earned his sobriquet and moniker, the Dracula of Daura; otherwise why did they bother trying to prove that the president is a human being or that part of him is actually human. This is the crossroads where the Nigerian Television Authority has, by no intentional fault of their own, successfully placed the president and thus  confirming what many had suspected for so many years that the man in occupation of Aso Rock is in fact a beast and at best an unfeeling bloody tyrant. 

This now explains without any scintilla of doubt whatsoever the president's harsh treatment of Nigerians, many of who he has murdered for simply engaging in placards carrying peaceful protests. ICHEOKU is emphatic that only animals or rather beasts that consume their own; otherwise how could anyone explain the easiness with which President Muhammdu Buhari orders his armed bandits in uniforms to continuously, violently, repress all manners of freedoms in Nigeria, including peaceful protests. How any president and his armed security agencies, which are supposed to protect the country's  citizens, but randomly turn the muzzle of the guns at them is quite beyond any reasonable fathoming. 

But good enough, the Nigerian Television Authority has done their documentary and they rightly titled it "The Human side of President Muhammdu Buhari"; the implication being that those complaining Nigerians have all along been right that the president has a beastly side; which many have seen and been visited with since the inception of his presidency. Hopefully, the Nigerian Television Authority will someday see it fit to completely showcase the president, by also doing another documentary covering the opposite side of his human side. 

This new documentary should cover the president's beastly side, the side which makes him want to spill the blood of Nigerians, his fellow citizens, for whom he was elected to protect and provide for. It shall also showcase his selective deafness to cries of citizens of Nigeria  under the spell of acute hardship and want. It shall also showcase his overthrowing of a democratically elected President Shehu Shagari's government and all the infra digs he committed following that 1983 putsch. This will help Nigerians as well as possibly any other interested parties worldwide to have a complete picture of the man who has become Nigerians nemesis in chief; except for his few Fulani tribal people to whom he has practically handed over every bounty in Nigeria. So, Nigerian Television Authority, ICHEOKU says when is the beastly side of President Muhammad Buhari documentary going to hit the screen? A mutant of some sort; a humanoid Chinese Zhulong and a character out of Greek mythology and you wonder why Nigeria has gone under under his watch. So, Nigeria Television Authority, ICHEOKU says to do it now. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

HAPPY 117TH BIRTHDAY KOINANGE

ICHEOKU says happy birthday to Elizabeth Gathoni Koinange of Kenya who celebrated her 117th birthday recently. Married into a polygamy, her only advise for up and coming would be wives is DON'T DO IT. According to her, polygamy sucks and it is inhuman for a wife to take turns with other wives to be with their husband. Indeed very humiliating and Nigeria's Abubakar Atiku is a polygamist. Anyway, ICHEOKU wishes Elizabeth many more happy celebrations and she looks good for her century plus age. Congratulations.

TAX REFORM BILL SIGNED INTO LAW.

ICHEOKU says what a huge legislative win by the president who seemed to have saved the best for last, as he ended the year 2017 with a such a big feat, signing the Tax Reform Bill into law. Once again, a man who has become known as a promise keeper has again kept his election campaign promise to reform America's Tax Law. 

ICHEOKU says congratulations to President Donald John Trump for again following through with a promise made, now become a promise kept. The $1.5 trillion tax-cut legislation is a major victory for the president and marks the first major reform in American tax law in over three decades. What a win for Mr President and for a do-nothing Congress which has now finally did something. Way to go; and may that be the beginning of many things to come and become mission accomplished under the presidency of President Donald John Trump and the Republican controlled Congress. Merry Christmas America. 

ICHEOKU'S MAN OF THE YEAR 2017: PRESIDENT DONALD JOHN TRUMP

ICHEOKU says following an examination of so many nominated individuals, we have determined that this year 2017's man of the year is President Donald John Trump, the 45th Presidnet of the United States of America. He came into office shooting on both hips and as the year draws to an end, his both guns are still firing and smoking. For standing up to the world and starring down American detractors and being the cheerleader and champion in chief of America, the leader of Team Make America Great Again has earned ICHEOKU's man of the year award 2017. Congratulations to President Donald John Trump. 

UNITED NATIONS VOTE: WE DON'T CARE - AMERICA

"This resolution is an unproductive attempt to isolate us for a decision that was our sovereign right to make. The United States will remember this day when it was singled out in the United Nations for the act of exercising our sovereignty. We will remember it when we are called upon once again to make the world's largest contribution to the United Nations. 

And we will remember when so many countries come calling on us, as they so often do, to pay even more and to use our influence for their benefit. America will put our embassy in Jerusalem. No vote in the United Nations will make any difference on that. It is what the American people want us to do. This vote will make a difference only as to how America looks at the UN, and how we look at countries who disrespect us at the UN." - Nikki Haley, United States ambassador to the United Nations.

A NON BINDING VOTE BY AN UNITED UNITED NATIONS: OF NO EFFECT.

ICHEOKU says with friends like Britain, France and Germany, does America still need any enemies when the three major European countries will not back America up when they are needed most. Pacifist approach can never and will not solve the Muslim plague afflicting the world and the earlier these pussy-footed countries realizes this the better it is for possible solutions to be found thereat. And so it is that the three countries joined other American rivals Russia and China and 123 others in condemning America's recognition of Jerusalem as the eternal capital of Israel. A mere formality as Jerusalem has always and will always remain the capital of Israel.  

Canada and Mexico abstained.

The 35 abstentions, plus 21 countries that did not turn up for the vote, were more than many diplomats had expected, suggesting that Trump's hardball tactics had partly worked. The U.S. Mission to the U.N. issued a statement that sought to downplay the broader setback for Trump's policy.

The 193-nation general assembly approved the resolution by a massive margin, with 128 nations in favour, and nine against. There were 35 abstentions

"While the resolution passed, the vote breakdown tells a different story. It's clear that many countries prioritized their relationship with the United States over 


Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N..

The arguments have already been made. The decision was in accordance to US law dating back to 1995. The decision does not prejudge any final status agreement. 

In a series of tweets, Saeb Erekat, SG, PLO "Despite the threats and scare tactics, the world stood with justice."

Ayman Odeh, chairman of the Joint List, the party coalition that represents most Israeli Arabs, "the international community does not accept Trump and Netanyahu's morally bankrupt diplomatic policy."

Some countries that abstained, including Australia, said they disagreed with Trump's decision and condemned unilateral actions on any side. But they said another U.N. resolution would not resolve the dispute.

Canada explained its abstention by saying it considered the resolution one-sided because it did not fully acknowledge the ties to Jerusalem felt by the three major monotheistic faiths: Judaism, Islam and Christianity.

Mexico said it was "alarmed at the distortions" taking place in the peace process and called on the United States to be a mediator in the dispute, and not to take one party's side over the other.

In addition to Israel and the United States, the nations that voted against the resolution were Guatemala and Honduras in Central America, the West African nation of Togo, and the tiny Pacific island states of Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, Nauru and Palau.
