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.

#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

THE CLOWN WHO WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT!

Icheoku takes the singular pleasure to introduce to you, this clown who wants to be president. His name is Senator John (McClown) McCain! He is over 72 years old and has been drawing on social security for over seven years now, yet covets the presidency! The thing about this septuagenarian Grandpa Senator from Arizona is that he has been masking this part of his life until this night, after the final presidential debate at Hofstra University, Hempstead, Long Island, New York.

Whether or not this pose here right is presidential is for you to decide and vote accordingly on November 4th, 2008. Like his vice presidential candidate, Sarah 'beauty queen' Palin said on Rush Limbaugh syndicated radio talk-show yesterday, "she has nothing to loose in this election" hence the diabolical tone of her campaign against an all American boy - Senator Barack Obama! The polls ain't lying! Peradventure, this 'have nothing to lose' attitude is a collective decision of the Senator John McCain campaign, hence this Methuselah's decision to clown his way out of the auditorium after the third and final debate.
Senator John McCain
appears to have resigned himself to fate - that he has lost this election!
He is trailing behind Barack Obama by over 15 points in virtually every poll coupled with his lack-lustre performances at the debates and being clueless as how to jump-start America. His conclusion is that this election is a fait accompli! Accordingly since he has lost, he might as well indulge himself in some fun hence the magical appearance of his clown hat!

America, it is time to hit the reset button and bring Senator Barack Obama to fix all that went wrong these past eight years of George Bush mayhem. Barack Obama will correctly do what needs to be done to move America forward! After the last eight years we need to start all over afresh and Senator Barack Obama is what we need for this much desirable clean break from the past McBush! Senator John McCain is more of the same as George Bush so he will not yield the necessary moral high-ground to do what this time demands. Senator John McCain is a Republican and they are not presently good news! They should be shown the way out of the White-house so that men with necessary wherewithal and gravitas can start speaking to the world again on behalf of the American people! Your task is to VOTE on November 4th, 2008 for the erudite candidate Senator Barack Obama and say No Way! No How! No McCain! No Palin! We do not need a clown for president!

Tuesday, October 14, 2008

WHO DO YOU REALLY WANT?

Should the unexpected happen and the accident of a George Bush 2004 surprised, all odds-shattering election victory repeats itself (God forbid evil), America would have forever tagged itself, the most racist country in the world! America would by such an unimaginable outcome, been sprayed by a skunk and stink it shall forever! It will be a general conclusion of so many that KKK and White supremacists still rule this great land and that all the supposed progress of the last several decades has not permeated the hearts and minds of Americans. Such an undeserved outcome will be a collective stigma on every American as each American will be painted with the same brush of a crass racist! If you do not want this indelible mark of the beast tattooed on your forehead, now is the time to contact your neighbor, family member, colleague, friend and even a stranger to clarify to him/her why this election must be decided one way and one way only; since nothing else makes sense! One candidate has out-performed the other candidate in every determinable department imaginable in this election campaign, so what else will stop him? Otherwise, it will be seen that all the rantings about a country that has since moved on from its despicable racist past is just a ruse and the world as well as our conscience will never forgive us for such a missed opportunity to reinvent ourselves. All it will take, is for Americans to be dispassionate and vote smart in this election.
Vote like it is hot and let the better of the two candidate get your vote! Vote like you are color-blind! Vote like you are grading a professional examination paper without any indication as to who wrote which paper! Vote like you mean well for this country and will like to see America excel once again! Vote like you know what you are doing! Vote like an informed person! Vote with your head and not your arse! Vote like an American desirous to see America triumph, loved and respected once again! Vote like you are giving the last George Bush eight years its deserved failing grades of straight 'F' across the board! Vote like you really want to see America turn a new page! Vote like the failure of the financial industry shouldn't have happened! Vote like you want to grow above yourself! Vote like you want to do right by and for America! Vote for Barack Obama + Joe Biden ticket!

The candidates' resumes are there and the disparity is like day and night! The primaries have come and gone and America watched one of the candidate grow into a formidable presidential candidate while the other diminished into a ranting rage-filled gnome who has been variously described as impulsive, erratic, irrational, angry, inarticulate and too old for the job! The campaign so far has been unfolding before the eyes of every American and the candidate with the steady hand is very obvious! We have witnessed two debates with one scheduled for tomorrow October 15th, 2008 and the verdict is that one candidate continually thumped the other! Over-all one candidate has a coherent plan to engage the gear of this country forward while the other is still whining and going round and round rambling about an over forty year old alleged war-exploits as if he was the only one who ever fought for this country? Many Americans living today were not even born then and since this his war effort has been acknowledged, it is about time he pivoted therefrom and tell Americans how he plans to solve the myriad of problems facing us today, both here at home and abroad. Also while in that voting booth on November 14, 2008 ask yourself were you an employer who will you hire for the top job? Remember that one of the candidate is an A+ student while the other was a struggling C- student.

However, should America get it right this time and vote with their heads, Icheoku has no doubt that come November 5th, 2008; America and the whole world will be waiting excitedly for the January 14th, 2009 swearing in of the first real candidate of change ever! The whole world will wake up on the morning on November 5th, 2008 to a Senator Barack Obama's America's president in the waiting new status! If only Americans will be bigger than self and just do right by and with their votes! America should exploit this opportunity to impress itself indelibly in the minds of the peoples of the world as a very serious minded people who have since buried their despicable racist past. It is the only reasonable thing to do and nothing short of that will suffice. Senator Barack Obama's presidential election victory will convince the naysayers that America has since moved on from its racist past and that for once we got it right since 2000 George Bush tragedy. Every indicator points at one conclusion and anything short of that conclusion, will not paint us in good light of both history and the world. Icheoku says, America do your part, vote smart, vote with your head!

In this election a lot of things are at stake and it should not be decided merely on passion, it should be decided based on an objective test of what is the true way forward from the George Bush disastrous eight years. Senator John McCain can try all that he may to run away from his shadow George Bush, but it is impossible for one to divorce himself from his shadow and John McCain is a true reflection of George Bush. With Senator John McCain America will get more of the same as the past George Bush eight years. Who wants to relive that nightmare? Not Icheoku and we believe you share our sentiments! At the least, there is a common denominator between Senator John McCain and George Bush - both are Republicans and that is simply enough reason to reject John McCain's candidacy. The Republican Party has sunk this country into the lowest abyss in recorded history this past eight years and it is about time America tell them enough! America, we have had enough of this unruly elephant in a china shop before they take the whole mankind with them into the sink-hole of infamy!

A President Barack Obama will be the much needed America's knight in shining armor! Remember to be a participant in this epoch making November 4th, 2008 presidential election so that you can proudly thump your chest in the future as one of the many who brought about this earth-shaking new America! You have a story in the making to share with your kids, grand-kids and great grand-kids. You were there and you participated! Only three things stands between you and this upcoming moment of truth: - vote on November 4th, 2008; vote for Barack Obama + Joe Biden ticket! and say emphatic No Way! No How! No McCain! No Palin!

DANGER - GNASHING OF TEETH!















Why are these guys all showing their teeth? It must be one thing and one thing only - they are mad at the world or something. For whatever reason these pictures portend danger and to the hills we all must scamper to. It is internal seething anger of unproportional magnitude that made these guys bare their fangs and in this take no prisoner way. Are you not afraid, Icheoku is and this is enough reason why we as Americans must not allow one of these angry guys into the White-house. Say no to Senator John McCain! No Way! No How! No McCain! No Palin!

NIGERIA EFCC IS INCOHOOT WITH CORRUPT OFFICIALS!

To this bombshell Icheoku screams 'DAYLIGHT ROBBERY'! Really, what other evidence does this Tiv woman want to see to prosecute these "armed bandits" masquerading as politicians? A cursory look around the country will show that evidence abound to secure life prison sentences for these financial criminals were there a stomach in this woman to take the fight to these political vampires. All you have to do is to juxtapose whatever "accomplishments" they recorded viz-a-viz the amount of revenue received during the same period and then let them account for the difference. Worst still, let them show you how much they were worth before 1999 and then check how much they are worth today and then do the math. Our verdict at Icheoku is that this is a brazen cover-up and nostalgically Nuhu Ribadu is greatly being missed. The quagmire called Nigeria will continue in its topsy-turvy dance of death until some form of revolution instills a new order therein.
How can you protect against future looting of the treasury of the country Nigeria, when her previous looters are being praised as very patriotic? It is incredulous as it is mind-numbing that even Olusegun Obasanjo with the widely publicised $16 billion dollars (bridge to nowhere) energy/power contracts was found innocent and adjudged by the EFCC to be a Mother Theresa?
It is mind-boggling indeed and one asks is there any hope for Nigeria? You tell me! That the whole world is watching this macabre dance of corruption and its cover-up is meaningless to these loonies now running the EFCC and like many a Nigeria who is Ostrich-like in hiding their heads in the sand thinking that their body which is outside is not important; this very woman Farida has once again added impetus to the assertion that Nigeria and corruption are two evil twins! Who is fooling who, Nigeria?

Now read the story and make up your own conclusion: -

Against public demands for a probe into the eight-year rule of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission [EFCC] on Monday says it has no evidence of any corrupt practices against him. EFCC Chairman, Mrs. Farida Waziri said in Abuja pointedly that Chief Obasanjo had no case with the commission, stressing, “As far as we are concerned, there is no case against Chief Obasanjo before EFCC.” Farida, who was reacting to a question put to her during the round-table discussion of The Initiatives, a group of lawmakers in the House of Representatives said apart from having no case against Obasanjo, most of the case files on top political office holders, particularly former state governors contained no vital evidence to prosecute them.

A CENTURION VOTES FOR BARACK OBAMA!

A 106-year-old American nun living in a convent in Rome, Italy could well be the oldest person to vote in the 2008 US Presidential election. According to the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Sister Cecilia Gaudette, who last voted for President Dwight Eisenhower in 1952, has registered to vote and says she will vote for Democrat Barack Obama.
According to her, Senator Barack Obama seems to be a good man and she hopes that Barack Obama's presidency will bring the much needed peace in the world.
Icheoku says this is one heck of an old person who will not be voting for her contemporary, old Grandpa Senator John McCain! God bless her heart! She is so old to understand that the challenges of a frail old body is not fit for the rigors of the presidency, hence her disavowal of fellow old person, Senator John McCain's attempt at the impossible! The presidency is not a job for a very old person so says Sister Cecilia Gaudette! Senator John McCain do you get that? A fellow very aged person has spoken and the words of the old is the voice of God! Understand? So, when are you going to drop out from the race Senator Ancient? This action will preserve some of your lost 'honor' and also spare you the ignomny of an eclipsing defeat at the polls on Tuesday November 4th, 2008, so says Icheoku!

SENATOR JOHN McCAIN IS NOT ALWAYS TRUTHFUL!

The New York Times editorial recently called Senator John McCain a liar! According to one observer, Senator John McCain has recently crossed the allowed boundaries of some truth-stretching into the absurdity of outrageous lies! Senator John McCain's lies range from the annoying to the sleazy, John McCain's campaign has been a ceaseless assault on his opponent's character and policies, featuring a consistent and witting disdain for the truth. Senator John McCain campaign has decided that its candidate can't win honorably, on the issues, so it has resorted to transparent and phony diversionary lies to wriggle its' way into the White-house. Senator John McCain's strategy is an obvious attempt to camouflage the current unpopularity of his Republican brand, the insubstantiality of his vice-presidential choice, and his agreement on most issues — especially economic matters — with an exceedingly unpopular President George Walker Bush! Senator John McCain by telling so much lies, has raised serious questions about whether he has the character to lead the nation. He has defaced his beloved military code of honor. He has run a dirty campaign! According to one writer, the antics of Senator John McCain's campaign have entwined the once straight-talking Senator John McCain in a web of deception.

Icheoku now examines some of the several instances where Senator John McCain has been caught in his own very woven web of lies:-

Senator John McCain lied that Barack Obama favors a government-run health-care system and he was not telling the truth since Barack Obama wants a market-based system subsidized by the government!
Senator John McCain lied that Senator Barack Obama opposes offshore oil-drilling and building new nuclear power plants when over 38 million Americans heard Obama say in his speech at the Democratic National Convention that he was open to offshore oil-drilling and building new nuclear-power plants!
Senator John McCain ran a television ad lying that Obama favored "comprehensive" sex education for kindergartners ;when Barack Obama favored a bill that would have warned kindergartners about sexual predators and improper touching!
Senator John McCain lied when he falsely accused Barack Obama of referring to Sarah Palin when he said McCain's effort to repackage his economic policies was putting "lipstick on a pig"; when it was obvious what the reference was all about! Senator John McCain made a deliberate attempt to change the subject from Palin's lack of fitness for the job and the recklessness with which McCain chose her.
Senator John McCain lied when he falsely accused the "élite media" of spreading rumors about Palin's personal life when in actuality the culprits were a few bloggers and the tabloid press!
Senator John McCain lied in a Spanish language advertisement that Barack Obama opposed immigration reform when the position of Barack Obama on immigration is widely known.
Senator John McCain's lies include McCain's claim that Obama will raise taxes on the middle class when all Americans know that 95% of American will get a tax cut under a Barack Obama's presidency.
Senator John McCain lied to the women of "The View" that Sarah Palin never requested earmarks when several earmarks of the Alaskan beauty queen "airhead" including the one to study Alaskan crabs gestation habits are of common knowledge.

Senator John McCain lied about his closeness and/or relationship with George Walker Bush and his failed administration when evidence abound in every corner that he is the other evil twin of GW. Senator John McCain is MORE OF THE SAME with George W. Bush! Both men are, simply put, a two faced Janus! The only semblance of difference between John McCain and George Bush is in nomenclature of their names - just like six and half a dozen!

Also let us not forget about the rumored sexual affair between Senator John McCain and lobbyist Vicki Iseman in a recent New York Times story about Senator John McCain’s connections with lobbyists. Take for example the Keating Five scandal in 1980’s when Senator John McCain intervened with federal regulators on behalf of crooked Savings and Loan operator Charles Keating after Keating and his associates had poured some $112,000 into Senator John McCain’s campaign coffers.
A decade later, Senator John McCain once again similarly intervened on behalf of Ms. Iseman’s wealthy clients – who likewise had contributed many tens of thousands of dollars to his campaigns. In 1998, when Senator Jon McCain chaired the Commerce Committee, which had oversight over the Federal Communication Commission (FCC), he wrote an extraordinary letter to the FCC Chair that threatened to overhaul the Commission if it closed a regulatory loophole that would allow one of Iseman’s clients to circumvent federal rules barring companies from owning more than one television station in a single city. The following year, McCain wrote to the FCC on behalf of Ms Iseman client Lowell W. Paxson who was trying to get approval for adding a Pittsburgh television station to his media empire. Senator John McCain lied that he was only urging the FCC to reach a decision on the acquisition after a long delay and was not advocating on Paxson’s behalf. It didn’t take an Einstein to read between the lines the intent of a letter from the Chair of the Commerce Committee which demanded that “each member of the commission” write to him “no later than the close of business on Tuesday, December 14, 1999, whether you have already acted upon these applications.” The FCC Chair wrote back to McCain to protest that “Your letter comes at a sensitive time in the deliberative process as the individual commissioners finalize their views and their votes on this matter. I must respectfully note that it is highly unusual for the commissioners to be asked to publicly announce their voting status on a matter that is still pending.”
After publication of the Times story, Senator John McCain again lied that he has never met with Paxson or a representative of Paxson’s company before dispatching his letter. Yet Paxson said in a widely reported interview that he had met personally with McCain on the matter. The Senator was contradicted by yet another source: himself. According to a 2002 deposition that Newsweek uncovered, Senator John McCain said, “I was contacted by Mr. Paxson on this issue.…He wanted their approval very bad for purposes of his business.”

Senator John McCain's campaign also lied that his staff “met with public broadcasting activists from the Pittsburgh area” who opposed the Paxson acquisition. But Jerold Starr, the co-chairman of the Save Pittsburgh Public Television Campaign, who led the activist opposition, said flatly that “It never happened.” According to an ABC News report by Avni Patel, Starr said “we had no idea that McCain had any interest in our local matter.” Starr further condemned as “a bold face lie” the assertion by the McCain campaign that the opposition, like Paxson, was seeking to expedite the stalled FCC proceedings. “The longer it took, the better our chances were,” Starr said. “It meant that the FCC was paying serious attention to our complaint.” Senator John McCain was not advocating for the common good in these cases.

Senator John McCain lied about the tight relationship he has with lobbyists which continues through his presidential campaign. According to former Washington Post reporter Thomas Edsall, “ eleven (11) current or former lobbyists are working for or advising Senator John McCain's campaign. Responding to this infusion of so many lobbyist in his campaign, Senator John McCain lied that they constitute no problem and that “these people (lobbyists) have honorable records, and they’re honorable people, and I’m proud to have them as part of my team.” Icheoku says that if lobbyist are honorable people then the meaning of honor has to be redefined!

Senator John McCain has also been described by one political commentator as a supremely self-righteous individual who believes himself to be above the rules and regulations he imposes on others. Stating further that this holier than thou attitude of Senator John McCain translates to arrogance of power which would make Senator John McCain a very dangerous man as president of the United States. Icheoku prays that we never get to see this nightmare come to pass hence it should be averted at all cost!

Senator John McCain's propensity to lie has become what political junkies call a meme, an idea or behavior that runs, seemingly unstoppably, from one media outlet to another. One of the pleasures of the 2008 campaign wrote one analyst is watching all those who once admired Senator John McCain for his truthfulness realize the true depths of his moral depravity! Senator John McCain lie so much that he has taken to lying about his own lies.

The current lie du jour of the Senator John McCain campaign is that their man will aggressively take on the greed that is causing the collapse on Wall Street. Given McCain's lack of interest in the economy, wealthy campaign contributors, and ideological hostility toward government regulation, this stance is laughable.

Senator John McCain's campaign lies include false estimates of the size of the crowds attending Republican rallies and that Sarah Palin sold the Alaska governor's plane on eBay all geared to make the Republican ticket more humane and moderate than it actually is.

One commentator has this to say about the lying-abilities of Senator John McCain, "like so many of John McCain's critics, I find myself astonished at the sheer brazenness of the lies he tells". There is no way a truthful Republican can be elected in 2008 judging from the deep hole the inept George Walker Bush has sunk the Republican brand. McCain wants to win. Therefore he lies. In the past, Senator John McCain might have gotten away with lying occasionally but not this time, especially in view of the blatant and brazen lies he has safely woven himself with. Senator John McCain's campaign just settled upon one serial lie after another because the precarious political reality he finds himself demands that if he is to win he has no choice but to lie!

The good news however is that Senator John McCain is being called out on his dishonesty continuously and consistently as he tells them. According to Michael Tomasky, the editor of the Guardian America, Senator John McCain is "the biggest liar in modern political history"! Continuing he stated that there are indeed so many lies associated with Senator John McCain's campaign that one can pick and choose at random. America the choice is yours to either be sold on all the lies of Senator John McCain or tell him that we are not all that dumb as he thinks to buy all his lies. America tell Senator John McCain that we are much smarter than the dumb whiners he thinks that we are; who can be sold on his multiple lies. NOT THIS TIME! Icheoku says the only reason a person tells a lie is because he thinks the other person is too dumb to know that he is lying. A liar is very arrogant and self-effacing! So let us tell the lying Senator John McCain that we know he is merely trying to bullshit his way through and that we have caught him in his web of lies. America, we cannot afford a lying gnome in the Whitehouse otherwise America will be seen as a nation of liars. So America, on Tuesday November 4th, 2008 say with your precious vote, No Way! No How! No McCain! No Palin!

WE ARE ALMOST THERE, AMERICA!

It is going to happen! Tuesday November 4th, 2008 is almost here - just three weeks away for us to make history together as a great nation or forever continue to wallow in the quagmire of racial divisions which has tainted our image over the years. This election is an opportunity to wash away all that was wrong and horrible; it is an opportunity to become a new nation which has since moved on from its intolerance of the past several centuries. Icheoku is not saying that everything will become honky-dory but that it is a great step in the right direction which will heal so many broken souls. You can never know what a man is going through until you are able to walk a mile in his shoes. All indices are favorable that the anticipated outcome will materialise but we must do right by participating in bringing it about.
A vote for Senator Barack Obama is what Americans should do on November 4th, 2008 - this will be the magic bullet to kill off a lot of negatives which had existed and is still existing both here at home and abroad. America needs a rebirth and Barack Obama will do it! America needs forgiveness of sins of the past and no better way to achieve this than for the symbol of what was formerly considered less human to be elected to the highest office in the land. The good news however is that this very symbol is eminently qualified and brilliant; he is also very inspiring and every inch presidential!
America, we can do it and this time it should be for real. The polls are looking good; the money is looking good; the debates are looking good! the campaigns are stellar! So all the conditions for the seed to germinate are present so grow, the crop must. Vote for Obama + Biden ticket this November 4th, 2008 and you would have done your part! So let us make it happen; visit www.barackobama.com to show cause!

PROPHET M.K.O. TIBETAN MEETS WITH ICHEOKU TEAM!

A team of Icheoku bloggers were privileged to meet the Nostradamus of our time! A Nigerian born Nostradamus that is. This acclaimed man of God and doctor of holistic medicine who can see tomorrow, visited the United States of America recently and found time to meet with Icheoku.com for a much anticipated interview. Following Icheoku's interview which were sometimes very invasive, it is our conclusion that he is credible! Our questioning was geared towards finding out if he really possess the power of intuitive cognizance as acclaimed. Whether he does really have power to foretell the future as his fame portrays? What international events he did foretell that came to pass. This man of incredible faith and power provided our team with his past predictions which came to pass - all in his published books of prophesies, predating the events fore-told. The most glaring were the manner of Israeli Sharon's end; the death of Nigeria's former first lady Stella Obasanjo and Olusegun Obasanjo eventual coming out of prison to become Nigeria's president. His name, PROPHET DOCTOR MARCUS KORODELE OLUWATOMISIN TIBETAN!
Below right are cover pages of two books written by Prophet Marcus Korodele Oluwatomisin Tibetan who started his call early in life, at the very tender age of 11 years old; predicting rain and drought without knowing what he was actually doing. He was born in Ode-Aye, Okitipupa Ondo State Nigeria - the first in a polygamous family of 25 children from two wives. His parents are still alive (father is 77 years old and mother is 74 years old). He strongly believes that marriage should be between one man and one woman period! He is married to one wife Bosede Olagundoye and their marriage is blessed with five children - one girl and four boys. For the prophet, the best gift one can give to his/her children is the gift of very sound education. Most of his prophesies have come to pass - 99%. According to him, if you are lawless you will lose a lot. He sees himself as a Christan and is neither racial nor tribal since there is no discrimination in heaven. He does not believe in miracles because miracle does not happen in a vacuum as the basics must be there first for the supposed "miracle" to happen. According to him, miracle is the reward for good, hard work. People should not pray for God to destroy their enemy because God does not destroy what he made; instead they should pray that their enemy change their ways. Do not shout for holy ghost fire because it is not the proper way to tell God your afflictions. His church, the Celestial Church of Christ World-wide with headquarters in Nigeria was founded in 1947 and he presently heads the Elisha Parish. Most of his works are based on intuitive divine revelations and he uses organic herbs, nuts, roots and other plants to cure illness. He performs spiritual healing of the mind and blood-pressure normalisation.

Continuing he said that most churches in Nigeria have deviated from the primary role of a church - salvation. Instead they are seeing it as a business venture to make money hence they propagate whatever message and supposed miracles; just to generate money but cannot and do not deliver the true message of God. This is the cause of the inverse rise crime wave in Nigeria despite the numerous churches in Nigeria.
His church will be opening a United States of America branch of the church at 6715 - 6711 Walker Mill Road, Capital Heights, Maryland 20743 USA. He has toured more than thirty-eight (38) states so far in the United States of America taking his brand of spiritual healing to numerous people irrespective of their faith or creed as according to him salvation is for all mankind. He has also visited more than eighty (80) countries world-wide as ambassador plenipotentiary of the church on a world-wide missionary effort and to cure and heal the afflicted (Icheoku observed that his international passport has six copies glued together with multiple entry and exit visas)

His advice to Nigerians in America as well as the wider Diaspora is to always remember home. According to him, Nigeria is not a lost cause but it will take concerted effort to move it forward and that someday Nigeria will surely get its acts together. Continuing Prophet Marcus Tibetan stated that Celestial Church of Christ world-wide is not a cult but is open for everyone. He advised that in order to avoid marital conflicts especially those resulting in spousal homicides, citing Icheoku's coveted story of "Nigerian Men Wife-Killers", you should not marry who you do not love - do not marry who you do not know! Marrying a stranger is the primary cause of marital troubles in many homes. "Fedexed" wives are also not recommended as there is never enough time for courtship - to actually know the wife or husband you want to marry. Courtship is the foundation of every good marriage - it is very important. Love conquers all. Also do not rush into marriage as there is no particular time-table to getting married - just take your time and marry when it is your time to marry. Always be yourself at all times - do not pretend to be what you are not. Concluding, Prophet (Dr) Marcus Korodele Oluwatomisin Tibetan reiterated that heaven and hell is real. That you should either be hot or cold but do not try to be so many things to so many people, all at the same time.

FYI: Icheoku finds this man believable but suggests you find out yourself if you are damn curious. Also Icheoku is working out an arrangement whereby this very man and prophet of God will contribute a weekly piece for our publication; all geared at spreading the availability of his wonderful work to our numerous audience and visitors. At present, the title of the Sunday bulletin will be "YOUR SUNDAY WITH PROPHET M.K.O. TIBETAN"!
Now click on this link for some of his other prophesy:- Third term agenda!
Prophet Marcus Korodele Oluwatomisin Tibetan is currently on a pastoral visit to the United States of America and can be reached via 973 418 4397; so give him a call and find out for yourself if our assessment of this man of power is correct! The test of the pudding is in the eating! Ciao!

RUSH LIMBAUGH NOW RUNS SENATOR JOHN McCAIN'S CAMPAIGN!


"Bushism must be ripped out, root and branch, everywhere it has been established, or else the presidential election of 2008 is a worthless exercise in futility," so said the editors of Esquire Magazine while endorsing Senator Barack Obama for president and Icheoku concurs totally and completely!

Any observer watching the rudderless hate-themed campaign of the veteran ancient Senator from Arizona, Grandpa John McCain will agree with Icheoku that campaign has been hijacked by the extremist bigoted right wingers of the Republican party. What did they do? They deflated all the tires on the straight-talk express and the ST bus is only idling and could not move forward. This is what happens when someone running for an office is too old to even control an ordinary campaign talk-less of running a government should an accident of an election find him so bequeathed (Icheoku says God forbid evil from happening).

The Rush Limbaugh's led racist hateful bigots have stolen the rug from under the feet of the septuagenarian Grandpa Senator John McCain and today, their gift of Sarah Palin to Senator John McCain has totally derailed his otherwise beautiful campaign effort. Why Senator John McCain fell for this Trojan Horse of a Sarah Palin gift was a rude shock to many reasonable Americans; judging from their now vicissitude and the then invectives which they poured on Senator John McCain when he was running a spirited primaries campaign against their anointed ones - the adulterer Rudy Giuliani (remember his wimpy 'I am waiting for Florida' primaries campaign strategy) and the other money-bag statue-like personality from Massachusetts, Mitt Romney. There is no name under the sky which this group of now freshly-minted or converted Senator John McCain's' campaign managers did not employ to derail his primary campaign. Why Senator John McCain now thinks that these blood-hounds suddenly forgave their misgivings against him is beyond Icheoku's imagination. The result is a campaign which has tanked into the toilets; thankfully to the same group's led effort at getting down and dirty, the Karl Rove style! But unbeknowst to Senator John McCain this group of race-baiting ideologues do not weld as much influence as their mega-phone AM radio stations tend to delude them. Remember, all their supported candidates in 2006 and 2008 lost their legislative elections.

These bunch of no-gooders, discredited rednecks have forced an Alaskan wild boobs unto Senator John McCain as his vice presidential candidate despite his otherwise sound preference for someone who brings something to the table. They deceived him that this air-head Alaskan beauty queen is the shot in the arm his campaign desperately needed; but regrettably this woman whose foreign policy experience is solely based on her ability to see Russia from Alaska has once again proved that the extreme right wing of the Republican party are all not very bright people - they are a pool of mediocrities who fan the ember of hatred, zealotry and fundamentalism. These bunch of loonies do not mean well for this country's decency and when the requiem/nunc-dimitis of Senator John McCain's campaign is sang, their grave will be covered for the final time. These buffoons are stinking corpses waiting to be permanently interred and Senator John McCain's campaign demise might be the undertaker to do this job. Enough of the Rush Limbaugh's hateful debauchery - he is a college drop-out whose analytical prowess is highly questionable and being also a drug-addict who could be over-medicated and possibly in a continuous state of hallucination or perpetual stupor to make any sound judgment, makes the matter worse. Rush Limbaugh basically speaking is just MENTAL! Rush is a vagabond and Limbaugh is a raving lunatic!

Senator John McCain, by conceding his campaign to these racist bigots shows another example of his lack of leadership which failed to coral these mongrels or better still completely excise them from his campaign. If this is not another faulty judgment of this seeming Alzheimer's case, then who knows what so qualifies. These people are the cancer which has metathesised in the campaign of Senator John McCain and is now incurable which will herald its demise. Some of their statements are rather very inflammatory and sometimes suggestive of their intolerance and/or call to arms. Have you observed how angry they have made all those nut-cases that appear robotically at Senator John McCain's campaign rallies? Recently, they have permanently boxed themselves into a corner and now finds it extremely difficult to be any objective - it is very hard for them to appreciate the great strides America has made over the years regarding objectivity devoid of skin-color.


However, Icheoku prays that this election be a land-slide to show that America is the land of very objective and fair minded people who would always go for the gold; and also as a statement that the Rush Limbaughs of this world now constitute a dying species whose days are numbered. They all belong to the lonely cemetery as their hatred for all that is good about America is very incendiary. As for the other members of this group, Icheoku will not waste its time acknowledging them as they are that sewage, but suffice it to admit that we listen to Rush Limbaugh sometimes and his mouth deserves to be soap-washed!

A NIGERIAN FELON FINALLY GOES TO THE BIG HOUSE!

A Nigerian doctor, George Chidebe Udeozor, 51, formerly of the 14400 block of Seneca Road, Darnestown (Germantown), Maryland, USA was sentenced to 97 months in prison to be followed by three years of supervised release (parole) upon completion of term. His offense:- he and his ex-wife, Adaobi Stella Udeozor, 46, also a medical doctor and who has been serving her own 87 months sentence since 2006 were found guilty of conspiracy to commit involuntary servitude and harboring an alien for financial gain. They held a young Nigerian girl slave at their home, turned her into a live-in nanny and domestic help without pay or any educational opportunities or benefits.

The presiding federal judge of the United States District Court in Greenbelt, Judge Peter J. Messitte also ordered George Udeozor to pay restitution in the amount of $110,249.60 to the victim, who was a 14-year-old girl when she arrived in the country in 1996, for lost wages, lost benefits and missed opportunities. George Udeozor was also alleged to have sexually and physically abused the victim, using her as his sexual object. The victim was rescued in 2001. George Udeozor had fled to Nigeria to escape justice in 1999 but was extradited to United States in February 2008 to face his nemesis - the law!

According to the officers involved, George Udeozor violated the prohibition against slavery and involuntary servitude forcing a helpless and innocent girl into a life of servitude while inflicting physical and sexual violence; this is simply intolerable! George Udeozor it was said, committed unconscionable crimes and was brought to justice.

According to the story, in September 1996, George Udeozor traveled to Nigeria and, using the passport of his oldest daughter, smuggled a 14-year-old Nigerian girl to his home in Maryland. He and his then-wife, Dr. Adaobi Stella Udeozor, used the girl as an unpaid domestic servant and child care provider for their six children for approximately five years, from October 1996 to Oct. 28, 2001. The victim cooked, cleaned the home, did laundry and took care of the Udeozor children. During that time, the victim was physically abused. The Udeozors did not send the victim to school and did not pay the victim or her family for her work. At times, the victim also worked in Adaobi Stella Udeozors medical offices, for which she did not receive compensation. The Udeozors compelled the victims labor by inflicting verbal and physical abuse on her, including when she purportedly did not do her work correctly. They threatened the victim with arrest and deportation if she left the home. Additionally, from sometime after the fall of 1997 when the victim was just 15 years old, until the time George Udeozor left the United States in late 1999 to return to Nigeria, George Udeozor had sexual relations with the victim in the Udeozor home. He warned the victim not to tell anyone about those episodes. On Oct. 28, 2001, the victim called the police, who took her to a homeless shelter.

ROSS PEROT WARNS AMERICA, DON'T DO IT!


Voting for Senator John McCain says Presidential candidate Ross Perot should be a no brainier - simply DON'T! This is because the grumpy old grandpa Senator from Arizona, John McCain is a mean vicious opportunist who does not care a hoot about any person but himself! Senator John McCain was so mean and uncaring that he walked out on his fateful wife of so many years simply because she was involved in a car accident and developed a minor limp following several surgeries to stitch her together. According to sources, John McCain said that Carol McCain was no longer the swim-suit model he had married. If Senator John McCain could be this heartless on matters affecting a fateful wife Carol McCain who devotedly waited on him to return from Hanoi Hilton for five years mothering their three kids, how the American people will be treated under an accidental John McCain's government (God Forbid) will leave much to be desired that even a street leper might fare better!

So America, Ross Perot has spoken and Ross Perot knows Senator John McCain very well! Listen, when such an insider most reluctantly steps out for an ominous warning; it was not an easy thing to do especially when both families has been so close that it was Ross Perot who introduced John McCain to the Reagans! It was Ross Perot also who paid Carol McCain's medical bills for the over twenty-three surgeries she needed to live following a horrible accident she had while running errands for Senator John McCain's family's Christmas obligations! In return for being such a dutiful wife, Senator John McCain just DUMPED HER and latched on to Cindy 'Lizardly-looking' McCain - Nee Hemsley. Ross Perot has no dog in this race but owes duty to warn the American people not to be swindled by a conniving and contriving bare-faced angry lying old man who is nearly grave-bound! America do not be fooled by this gnome! DO NOT VOTE FOR SENATOR JOHN McCAIN, AMERICA! Senator John McCain is poison! Once again, Icheoku reiterates, No Way! No How! No McCain! No Palin!

AMERICA, KILL TWO BIRDS WITH BARACK OBAMA'S PRESIDENCY!


America, elect Senator Barack Obama and get yourself buy one get one free. By electing him, you are electing the better of the two candidates and also as a plus you are killing racism in America with a masterstroke! Put the likes of Jesse Jackson out of work and Al Sharpton out of business of marketing racism and race-based activism. He is better than the angry wrinkly ancient McSame!

At this stage in the game, Senator John McCain's name is irrelevant and for all that Icheoku cares, McCain might as well be McNoInsurance; McGuilty; McCoke; McSmallie; McOutoftouch; McNoplansatall; McSmear; McNobrains; McTemper; McAncient; McVeryold; McBush; McUnforgiving; McPalin; McNemesis; McGnome; McHater; McWicked; McRacistbigot; McMinime; McInsame; McMoreofthesame; McLittle; McOpportunism; McWifedesserter; McMessingaround; McAcerbic; McDeadmanwalking; It really does not matter.

What matters now is that the American people are not as dump as Senator John McCain portrayed them to be by lying to them through both sides of his mouth while deluding himself that they are too dumb to remember yesterday's history. Otherwise why run on empty thinking he can easily Houdini the American people into electing more of the same together with the crazy-horse Alaskan beauty queen? Once again, Icheoku says never has the opportunity at this double whammy been better presented than at the present time - a golden opportunity calls to force Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton out of their business of race and into bankruptcy.

America, vote for the change we can believe in and let us start hoping once again! Senator Barack Obama is the answer to the question, are all hope lost? Be an instrument to bringing this earth-shattering change in America to fruition, vote smart! Visit www.barackobama.com to see why he is the one, America!

HAVE YOU EVER MET A LIVING GODESS?


The Himalayan Mountaineous Hindu kingdom, Nepal has a living and breathing goddess known as Kumari Devi (a deified young girl)! The custom of worshipping a pre-pubescent girl, who is not a born goddess, as the source of supreme power is an old Hindu-Buddhist tradition that still continues to this day in Nepal.

According to the traditions of Vajrayana sect of Mahayana Buddhism, girls in the age-group of 4-7 year, who belong to the Sakya community, and have an ‘appropriate’ horoscope are screened on the basis of their 32 attributes of perfection, including color of eyes, shape of teeth and even voice quality. They are then taken into in a dark room to meet the deities where terrifying tantrik rituals including harried heads of ritually slaughtered goats and buffaloes are performed to determine who is the real godess usually by the one of these little girls who stays calm and collected throughout these scary ordeals. Other Hindu-Buddhist rituals that follow finally determine the real Kumari. The godess is worshipped as worshipped by Hindus and Buddhists as an incarnation of the powerful Hindu deity Taleju.
The spirit of the goddess is said to enter her body. She takes on the clothing and jewelry of her predecessor, and is given the title of Kumari Devi, who is worshipped on all religious occasions. She would now live in a place called ‘Kumari Ghar’, at Kathmandu’s Hanumandhoka palace square. This godess usually turns human at puberty - her first menstruation

The Kumari Festival is held in September during the Indra Jatra festival

The downside of this living human divinity is that Nepalese folklore holds that men who marry a former kumari will die young, and so many girls remain unmarried.To which Icheoku will like to add, but who wants to marry a godess anyway?
