ROBERT MUGABE FORCED OUT: AFTER THE EUPHORIA, WHAT NEXT?

ICHEOKU says even the bravest general knows when the fight cannot be won and continuing the battle becomes mere foolhardy; and so it was that the man who has ruled Zimbabwe for close to four decades, Dr Robert Mugabe, saw that the treachery is deeper than he had imagined and decided to throw in the towel and resigned his office. Now let all those conspirators who ganged up to effectuate his ouster transform Zimbabwe into the little Eldorado Paradise they saw in their vision which led to their stab on the back of the now former president. Boy, was Julius Caesar right in calling out Brutus, Et tu Brute; that an army general who he appointed to the office as head the country's military ganged up with an ousted Vice President to stage a palace coup which barreled down to the present state of a Zimbabwe without President Robert Mugabe. ICHEOKU says trust is definitely in short supply within the Zimbabwean military establishment and the country's general political environment, including the ZANU-PF.

ICHEOKU says it will take a while for it to sink in for those Zimbabweans that President Robert Mugabe is no longer in power and controlling their affairs. Hopefully they have not invited the conflagration which will ultimately consume them, with the disrespectful forced exit of a man who put so much to bring them pride and respect, as full human beings, freed from colonialist British. ICHEOKU will miss President Bobby Mugabe, especially his grandiloquence and vast repertoire of parables and metaphorical speaking. That he is a well read man is also a fact and therefore he earned the bragging right to say that he is very knowledgeable in what he is always talking about. But the conspiracies of Britain and America started the 2009 targeted economic sanction which forced the tiny country of 14 million people into a beggarly nation, with over 90% unemployment rate and a currency which is as worthless as the sands in the Sahara desert and it damaged his presidency so much that he couldn't and never recovered from it. 

But he gave it his all and he fought till the very end; tried but in vain to starve off his traducers. He was simply overpowered by circumstances beyond his control and at his very ripe old age of 93, his sinews no longer have the strength in them which they use to have to wage a fight and he signed the dotted lines of a prepared resignation letter, possibly with a pistol pointed at his cranium by the same gangster military that forced the issue to come to a head. But as with every war, after the war, comes the battle and winning the battle of a post Mugabe Zimbabwe will be the toughest challenge facing Zimbabweans down the road. Nothing really changed and therefore all the hopes raised by his ouster which led to the unwarranted jubilation of Zimbabweans might soon be dashed as wishful. 

The man who will succeed Mugabe, former Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa, is part of the old order that has ruled Zimbabwe since its independence in 1980. He was once the Minister of Internal Security and his ruthless put down of the Ndebele Matabeleland revolt in 1983-84 when over 20,000 Zimbabweans were brutally massacred and which actually earned him closer ties to the president, tells everything anyone needs to know about the bloody content of his character. He was subsequently appointed Vice President. But unbeknownst to Bobby Mugabe, such a snake could not be trusted and it led to the president's downfall. How this ruthless mass murderer will govern Zimbabwe is but anybody's guess. But ICHEOKU foresees the Biblical 1King 12:11 type King Rehoboam come to life that if President Robert Mugabe chastised Zimbabweans with a stick, this incoming killer will trade sticks for scorpions. Like with every revolution, after Mugabe, will come the real revolution of purging Mugabe's loyalists and replacing them with his own henchmen; and how far his decisions will go is also anybody's guess. But whether those that will be affected in the coming purge will just accept it and quietly go into the night without a fight is also up in the air. 

It is Africa where tribal and regional loyalties are always paramount in peoples affairs. As the people of Libya are still finding out after the celebration that followed the international conspiracy that led to the murder of Moummar Gaddafi, Zimbabweans might soon find out that President Mugabe was not the problem. Iraq too. Winning the war against President Robert Mugabe is definitely going to be quite different from winning the battle against a comatose economy and a people yet to fully grasp what has taken place - that their Bobby is no longer in power. A Zimbabwe military which took side with a Vice President against their own commander in chief is not a military any incoming president should trust and the real change should in fact start with them by removing every senior military officer that had a hand in the ouster of President Robert Mugabe from office. Thereafter, the over devalued currency should be addressed as well as the overall economy which is in cold doldrums, towards providing jobs for millions of unemployed Zimbabweans and prevent the 90% unemployment from further north bound trajectory. 

As far as ICHEOKU is concerned, the manner of President Robert Mugabe's removal from office is not the best. The military should have demanded the reinstatement of the sacked Vice President and allowed President Robert Mugabe to serve out his term. At his very old age of 93, he does not have that much long to live and they could have also waited him out or have the election conducted in such a way as to vote him out in next year's election. But all these are now but the shouting, as the deed is done and Robert Mugabe is no longer president of Zimbabwe. ICHEOKU says lets now wait and watch how the post President Robert Mugabe's era will turn out for Zimbabweans. So long President Bobby and may he live out whatever remains of his last days on this earth in peace and harmony; and ICHEOKU thanks him for the much which he was able to do for Zimbabweans within his widow's mite abilities. Viva Bobby.

North Korea: A TERRORIST STATE SPONSOR OF TERRORISM

ICHEOKU says it is official, the reclusive North Korean leader Kim Jung Un has succeeded in invoking the wrath of the United States of America and has now been put back to the list of States which sponsors terrorism. So alongside Iran, Sudan and Syria, North Korea will now pay a hefty price economically and as rightly articulated, this latest designation will further squeeze the country and force it into a better behavior. 

ALEX EKWUEME: DEAD AT 85

ICHEOKU says former Nigerian Vice President during the second republic presidency of Alhaji Shehu Shagari, Dr Alexander Ifenayichukwu Ekwueme, is dead. He died of natural causes in a London hospital. He was 85 years old. May his soul now rest. Adieu Alex.

ENOCH ADEBOYE'S RCCG: A MONETIZED RELIGION WITH DIMINISHED CHRISTIANITY.

ICHEOKU says at a conversion rate of $1 to N355 multiplied by $65 million is equals to N23,075,000,000. Now do the math and tell ICHOEKU that if indeed Enoch Adeboye is a man of God that he would not have put the staggering sum he splashed on a mere worldly extravagance, on a more Godly delighting works. Works which says heavenly such as charity, hospitals, schools, scholarships, food banks, clothing the poor, tendering the sick, feeding the prisoners, creating jobs for the jobless and such other things of grace as Matthew 25:35-40 envisaged. 

Further, why did General Overseer Enoch Adeboye not direct the $65 million towards empowering thousands of his congregants, many of who can hardly pay their children's school fees, feed themselves and/or pay their hospital bills? Why did GO Enoch Adbeoye not invest the money towards improving more Nigerian lives generally, rather than a selfish act of pure pleasure, made to benefit himself and cushion his own personal activities. If his argument that he has so many places to be at the same time is to be believed as an acceptable explanation for needing a private jet, why the topmost of the top range private jets, when there are jets that cost a lot cheaper than S650 Gulfstream. But "What Would Jesus Do" with a $65 million bounty he suddenly found in his possession?  On the authority of Matthew 14:13-21, ICHEOKU says he would not have purchased a $65 million private jet or made it his top priority. Even ordinary donkey, Jesus did not purchase nor owned; but went on borrowing it as his need of it arose. So why did Enoch Adeboye not borrow or rent private jets or fly first class as his need to travel arises and as so many exemplary leaders do, including the the Vatican See. 

If our Lord and Master Jesus Christ was around, what would he say to Enoch Adeboye than to order him to go sell off the plane and give the proceeds to the poor and needy who have no food, no clothes on their back nor shelter over their heads. Is it possible too that Enoch Adeboye does not even believe the gospel which he preaches and like another Pharisee, he is just preaching what he does not practice. Why does he believe that Jesus Christ was wrong in Matthew 4:8-11 by not falling down and worshipping Lucifer when he collects money packaged as tithes from a lot of dubious characters including ten congregants he asked to pony up N1 billion each or the Abuja woman who works with the Prison Service who gave his RCCG a N200 million in tithe offering? Did Enoch Adeboye ever question the source of these people's money and who ever legitimately acquired his wealth would just give up N1 billion just because the Overseer said so. What is really going on in this Redeemed Christian Church of God or is there some drug and/or money laundering operation going on therein?

In South Korea once lived a Reverend Sun Myung Moon who not only made it big preaching the gospel but made millionaires out of thousands of South Koreans through business products his ministry developed, perfected and maintained. His ministry enjoyed and still to a large extent today, a near monopoly of false hair attachment and other hair care products. Yes, Reverend Moon's ministry controlled artificial hair and weave on industry, as well as many haircare and beauty care industry. With money collected in donations and tithes, he ventured into hair products manufacturing, creating several thousands of middle men and women, distributors and wholesalers, as well as retailers and exporters of his product out of members of his church. His reach was so extensive that by the time he eventually died in September 3, 2012, he was nearly a Demi god in Seoul, having created lots of jobs for South Koreans and turned so many lives around as well as made millionaires and rich people out of ordinary South Koreans. 

He was not selfish and he did not make purchasing a private jet his number one priority and many of his early travels were funded by people needing him to visit and preach to them. The wealth he created transcended and trickled down the and he made a lot of rich people out of his church members and the general South Korean people. There were other things, including schools and hospitals which his ministry established and ran, most of them free to his church members; and which to a great extent helped transform South Korea into the world class nation it is today, alongside other nationalist companies such as Samsung, Daewoo, Kia etc. This is exemplary Christianity and if there is heaven, Reverend Moon is already there as he practiced what he preached and he gave impetus to giving the poor, clothing the clothe-less, sheltering the homeless and in short, gave his all to everyone. His is an example worth emulating.

Had General Overseer Enoch Adeboye been this as focused in improving the lot of Nigerians particularly those millions of his followers, many of who cannot afford to send their children to his schools or afford their hospital bills, by catering to their needs, nobody, including ICHEOKU will be raising eyebrow because he collects tithes or spent a "paltry" $65 million on a top of the range Gulfstream S650 private jet, afterall he would have rightly earned it. But, when millions of his followers are wallowing in abject poverty, including those who could not afford their daily meals nor have the capacity to pay their children's school fees and hospital bills, and he is spending such a fortune just to make himself comfortable while jetting around the globe, people pause to wonder what actually moves this guy. What manner of Christian is he indeed? Does he follow the footsteps of our Lord Jesus Christ? Certainly, unlike the other gay-looking fella Rotimi Amaechi, who does not love money, Enoch Adeboye appears to love the billfolds, admitted he worked tirelessly so hard to get to where he is presently. But should that excuse his exhibitionist high dollar purchase?

ICHEOKU says where is the Christianity in Enoch Adeboye if his priority is getting himself the finest private jet ever manufactured just to pleasurably get around. Where is his obedience to the Lord to sell everything he has and follow him? Where is his obedience to the Lord that such earthly distractions will deny him entry into heaven or is he content with already enjoying his own heave here on earth while millions of his congregants can go on waiting and longing for their own heaven hereafter. Where is his obedience to the Lord's admonition that on the last day he will ask when I was hungry you did not give me food to eat, when millions of the Lord's brethren members of his church are starving and going to bed hungry at night? When and if Enoch Adeboye finally meets Jesus how does he plan to explain the overt extravagance he displayed when he doled out $65 million to purchase a private jet when he could have been flying first class or even renting jets as his travels demands and at worse, purchased a much cheaper and equally efficient jet and given the rest to helping the poor and needy, especially those among his church members.

ICHEOKU says except Enoch Adeboye repents, he is definitely not going to make heaven and is bound for hell if our Lord's words are firm and unchangeable. This is a guy who once asked for ten people in his church to cough up one billion Naira each to raise ten billion Naira which will go towards building a church auditorium when God does not dwell in houses made of brick and mortar. This is a guy who once received a two hundred million Naira tithe from a woman who works with Nigerian Prisons authority in Abuja and on none of the occasions did he care to ask these "generous" givers how they came about such hefty sums which they so easily doled out. A country bedeviled with corruption where nearly half of the population have nothing to eat, but this supposed man of God has no qualms accepting these monies from these people and applying same to his church purposes including possibly towards purchasing his private jet and other sundry things which does not edify or glorify God. 

Our Lord lived with man for a little time of over 33 years and during that time, he preached and lived example of how to enter heavily paradise. He did not own nor coveted any earthly possessions because he explicitly said that people should aspire for the rewards in heaven and not be bogged down with things of the earth which has no heavily value. Even the donkey with which he rode into Jerusalem, he borrowed; and could have purchased hundreds of them if he wanted or had demanded of his followers. But no, he lived and showed example of how to make his Heavenly Father happy in order to enter paradise. A rich man even came to him in Matthew 19:16-21, seeking to know how he can make heaven and again, Jesus told him to divest himself of all his earthly possessions and come and follow him. This is imperative because no one individual will ever enjoy two heavens, it is either they enjoy the one here on earth or they wait to enjoy the promised paradisaical heaven. 

It is obvious that Enoch Adeboye is surely enjoying his earthly heaven, being able, according to his own words, to eat one cow if and whenever he so desires and also jetting around in an ultra expensive private modern jet. That he worked tirelessly so hard to get to where he is no is not an excuse because the race for heaven is a marathon which never finishes until death. Our Lord will not ask anyone how long ago they started their heavenly race; he is only interested in whether they finished it and remained in grace until the end. Why is he not practicing what he is preaching or does he not want to also enjoy the heavenly bliss promised to all faithfuls? Even John the Baptist, the forerunner of Jesus Christ did not own any worldly possessions but ran around foretelling the coming of Jesus Christ, subsisting on only locusts and honey. 

So, why the monetization of the church going on in Enoch Adeboye's Redeemed Christian Church of God, which hardly justifies the Christian and God in its name; and neither are his redeemers, redeemed. Where is the sacrifice or has he not heard about no pain no gain and that nobody ever gets into heaven on a fat stomach. In Matthew 14:16-20, our Lord Jesus fed the multitude with two fishes and five loaves of bread and would have kept the provision to himself or even turned them away as prompted by his disciples, but he said, feed them. Our Lord Jesus washed the feet of his apostles but did not erect a wall of superiority around himself by buying a private jet or an expensive chariot of that era. He mixed and mingled among the crowd, did not have bodyguards either; and had aversion for the high and mighty of that era. 

But as for Enoch Adeboye, he goes around with body guards, mixes with politicians, thieves and corrupt individuals and stays barricaded from the masses and has now acquired a Gulfstream which no poor member of his church will ever dream of getting on. Our Lord even once went hungry in Matthew 11:12-14 and cursed the fig tree which could not yield him fruit to eat. But never a time throughout his ministration did he ever force anyone or make demand of anyone to give or provide him with food to eat or something to drink. He always foraged for his own food and drink, just like any other person; setting example of what secures eternal paradise. But Enoch Adeboye is their daddy and General Overseer who must not go hungry, but must be attended to round the clock, pampered and provided for multiple choice foods and drinks  when millions others are hungry and unattended to. 

Unfortunately, Nigerians in their ever savvy way of copying and imitating and sometimes surpassing the originators, the Enoch Adeboyes of Nigeria, have taken the art of monetized religious business, copied from the Americans, to a completely new stratospheric heights. To even think that amidst the dire need in the country that a supposed man of God would spend such staggering sum of money just on a private jet is not only unfathomably disheartening but irreconcilable to scriptural dictates. Imagine how may people such amount of money would have empowered. Imagine how many cottage industries it would have established. Imagine how many doctors, lawyers, engineers, architects, teachers it would have trained. Imagine how many hospital bills it would have paid too. But no, not for the man of God who would rather have his reward here on earth than to wait for the Kingdom to come and contrary to what he preaches. People are hungry; people are homeless and people cannot afford to pay their children's school fees, but buying a $65 million private jet is his priority and you wonder why peoples incredulity is raised about this new religions.

ICHEOKU says Enoch Adeboye's action further explains what George Orwell tried to communicate to the world in 'Animal Farm', using Snowball antics of a fantastic Sugar Candy mountain with which he held Boxer hostage to a life of bonded servitude, in expectation of some future reward. ICHEOKU says regardless of how the current debate on the merits of paying tithes is eventually resolves, General Overseer Enoch Adeboye has irredeemably damaged himself and the image he fakes as a man of God, who is destined to heaven. With the lifestyle of the rich and famous, a rockstar, which he has transitioned into, topped off with the acquisition of a $65 million Gulfstream private jet, it is hard if not impossible to believe that he is still in sync with real and true Christianity. Definite not when millions of his followers are left hungry, homeless and jobless and he is spending millions on a private jet. There is no justification for it and no explanation is acceptable. He would have plowed the money into other more Godly projects, which will edify God and improve his branch of Christianity. RCCG is earthly and even occult like and it cannot secure him or any other member a place in heaven. In short, Enoch Adeboye is headed to hell, except he repents and sheds himself off his earthly possessions.  

LAVAR BALL: A DESPICABLE INGRATE AND BAD ROLE MODEL.

ICHEOKU says never has a human-being been this despicable and dumb, that instead of hiding his face in shame that his thieving son nearly caused an international incident when he took his shoplifting act overseas, he is here dismissively treating what his son did as no big deal and also belittling the effort that made his son's release possible. 

LaVar Ball, the father of LiAngelo Ball, one of three UCLA players, who were caught red handed shoplifting in China, is one big foolish oaf and a loud mouth who should have known better not to display the stupidity of a comment which he made to ESPN. How any responsible father would so impetuously say what he said regarding the shameful criminal behavior of his son and added insult to the injury by not being appreciative of the presidential power that freed his son is simply unfathomable. ICHEOKU says if President Donald John Trump did not help and actually facilitated the release of his son and his two criminal accomplices, who did? Or was it his little self that strong armed President Xi Jing Ping and ordered him to release his son immediately; knowing that the culture over there has zero tolerance for such irresponsible criminal behavior such as stealing. 

ICHEOKU agrees with the President Donald John Trump's social media director, Dan Scavino, that his shoplifting son, LiAngelo Ball, would still be in Chinese criminal custody and for a long, long, long time without President Donald John Trump's assistance and intervention; for which this buffoon should have been eternally grateful and not open his mouth like a foolish blowhard big loud mouth which he apparently is. A more responsible, well disciplined father should have personally thanked the president and thereafter, quietly kept away to allow the incident to melt away. But no, he inserted himself into the matter and thereby successfully reintroduced his son's criminal behavior back into the limelight centerstage. 

His son LiAngelo Ball, alongside his two other colleagues in shoplifting, Cody Riley and Jalen Hill, were arrested in Hangzhou China for stealing sunglasses in a Louis Vuitton shop. They were facing possible ten years imprisonment in a Chinese prison following a likely conviction; presidential plugs were pulled to secure their release and this LaVar Ball is now saying what? A matter made worse because the three criminals have already owned up to their criminal activities, apologized for their criminal behavior and also expressed their gratitude to the president for facilitating their release. But this ostrich is saying what? In their words of gratitude, the trio said: "To President Trump and the United States government, thank you for taking the time to intervene on our behalf. Thank you for helping us out." 

So could LaVar Ball help the world understand what he understands this to mean or how else he otherwise interprets this show of contrite and gratitude by his son and the two others or is hisnuerons possibly not firing properly not to fully appreciate what went into his son's release from an assured lengthy prison term. The three musketeers stole, the three musketeers were identified from video recording and the goods were found in the three musketeers' bags, following a police search and this LaVar Ball still has the face to say what? 

ICHEOKU admonishes that a responsible father who did a good job raising his son would have hushed and not pour further gasoline into the inferno of shame. He should have allowed the three shoplifters, one of who is his ill raised son LiAngelo Ball, to have the "great life" which the president had wished them. But no, the big mouth is rather blabbing like a drunk, who is so inebriated not to to appreciate the magnitude of what his son and his friends did and for which President Donald John Trump's phone call to Chinese Jing Jin Ping helped solve. Any good father would have also followed up with ensuring that his son and his fellow thieving two friends heed the president's advise to go out and give a big Thank You to President Xi Jinping of China who made their release possible. Emphasizing too the president's fatherly advise to have a good life and be careful because there are many pitfalls on the long and winding road of life!" But not this rambler. 

Just listen to the his gibberish and you wonder what manner of a man he is indeed that raised such a badly behaving son.Whether he is actually the bad influence on his son is deducible from his reaction to this thievery; which suggested to his son that it is okay to steal or take what does not belong to him. Hear him: "Who? What was he over there for? Don't tell me nothing. Everybody wants to make it seem like he helped me out. As long as my boy's back here, I'm fine. I'm happy with how things were handled. A lot of people like to say a lot of things that they thought happened over there. Like I told him, 'They try to make a big deal out of nothing sometimes.' I'm from L.A. I've seen a lot worse things happen than a guy taking some glasses." 

ICHEOKU says the fact that such criminal misbehavior happens and/or is acceptable in the Hood where the blabber mouth grew up, does not otherwise legitimize it. The criminality of stealing, robbing and dispossessing people of their belongings or taking something from a store and not paying for it, is all frowned criminal misbehaviors for which the law not only frowns but pushes the offenders. What his ill mannered and poorly raised, mannerless son, LiAngelo Ball, did, was in addition to being criminal, deed both reprehensible and inexplicable. 

LaVar Ball should therefore be ashamed of raising such a thieving son, instead of so brazenly trying to explain away his conduct as if it is no big deal. From his idiotic reaction, it is possible he was in fact the reason his son did not turn up a good boy nor knows any better or aware that stealing is wrong. He probably watched his father do similar things in the past himself or he, LiAngelo Ball, has gotten away with doing such things in the past, without any consequence or admonition from his father, who rather approved of such his despicable conduct. Otherwise why would this man not scold his son who disgraced himself, his family and country, by shoplifting overseas. His reaction simply shows that he has no compunction and lacks the decency to frown at evil and has no aversion for criminal behavior. Pitiful.

WILLIAM O'NEIL: HAD 50 WOMEN IN 50 YEARS.

"Now that the dogs of war are calling for the head of Senator Al Franken, I believe it is time to speak up on behalf of all heterosexual males, As a candidate for governor, let me save my opponents some research time. In the last fifty years I was sexually intimate with approximately 50 very attractive females. 

It ranged from a gorgeous blonde who was my first true love and we made passionate love in the hayloft of her parents barn and ended with a drop dead gorgeous red head from Cleveland. Now can we get back to discussing legalizing marijuana and opening the sate hospital network to combat opiod crisis. I am sooooo disappointed by this national feeding frenzy about sexual indiscretions of decades ago. Peace." - Bill O'Neil, Democrat, Supreme Court Justice and Governorship candidate contender of Ohio State. 

ICHEOKU says give it up to these Democrats and coincidentally, he is another Bill; if you get the drift about the other Bill of Monica Lewinsky notoriety.

AL FRANKEN: SHOULD RESIGN HIS OFFICE IMMEDIATELY.

ICHEOKU says apologies not withstanding and it is unacceptable, what Al Franken did is additionally criminal. His groping and grabbing the breasts of a woman who was passed out and deeply asleep and unaware of her being violated is more than creepy. Query: is it possible too that Al Franken could have slipped a date rape drug into her drink, which made her to so pass out, for her not to wake up when her boobs were being grabbed? 

This is actually the more heartbreaking story here, that the victim was had without her consent and awareness; and not necessarily that Al Franken was being another pervert like many of them are, anyway. Yes, Al Franken was part of the Hollywood sleazy slim balls and yes, nothing more edifying was expected of him; but that he did what he did without the victim's consent and she not being conscious and unaware, makes Harvey Weinstein activities seem saintly. 

Only criminals waylay their unsuspecting victims and Al Franken summarily now qualifies as one; and therefore no longer a fit and proper person to be called a United States of American Senator, representing the great State of Minnesota. He should therefor resign his office or be impeached or recalled by his home State because his continuing in Washington DC as a Senator, gives the hallowed chambers a bad name. This is the same man whose sanctimonious righteousness and mouthing off "Russian collusion" has become a daily drama at the Senate. But here he was colluding with a photographer to capture his creepy behavior, groping a sleeping woman. Jesus Christ was indeed right that he who is without sin should throw the first stone; but Al Franken forgot this injunction and continued to throw stones from a glass house. ICHEOKU calls on Al Franken to resign now.

The veracity of what he did is no longer suspect. Picture speaks volume and he has also admitted what he did and apologized. In his apology, Al Franken said: -  

"To Tweeden and everyone else who was part of that tour, to everyone who has worked for me, to everyone I represent, and to everyone who counts on me to be an ally and supporter and champion of women. There's more I want to say, but the first and most important thing—and if it's the only thing you care to hear, that's fine—is: I'm sorry. I don't know what was in my head when I took that picture, and it doesn't matter. There's no excuse. I look at it now and I feel disgusted with myself. It isn't funny. It's completely inappropriate. It's obvious how Leeann would feel violated by that picture." 

ICHEOKU says the only thing now remaining for the Senator from Minnesota to do is to resign his office and save his State and the nation, the embarrassment of his continued representation as a Senator. His office let another take as he is no longer a fit and proper person to remain in the Senate. The Senate deserves better and more appropriately behaved membership and not a clown who was clowning his way around until the ever calculating Democrats decided to field him in order to win a Senate seat in Minnesota. Now, the dog has been caught with his mouth full of shit and only one thing is acceptable under the circumstance - HIS RESIGNATION. 

TESLA TRUCK ARRIVES: HURRAY!

ICHEOKU says while you were distracted and not paying attention, the man who has revolutionalized driving with his zero emission and zero gasoline, 100% electric Tesla cars, has added yet another vehicle to the Tesla family stable. An all electric truck that can go up to 500 miles on a single charge.

IVANKA TRUMP'S SELECTIVE JUDGMENT ON ROY MOORE: NOT KOSHER.

ICHEOKU says wondering whether Ivanka Trump Kushner ever believed all those women who wanted to derail her father's presidential election campaign last year? If she did not believe those women and the circumstances then are eerily similar as the present's Roy Moore's tangle in Alabama, bothering on what some women said and what Roy said in response; where then is her justification in saying that she believed the women currently lining up against Judge Roy Moore, Alabama Republican candidate for the Senate? 

What is good for the goose should be equally good for the gander. Therefore if the then candidate Donald John Trump, despite the number of women who lined up to give false witnesses against him including Access Hollywood captured live audio, was giving a benefit of the doubt during his challenging times; why not extend the same fairness to Judge Roy Moore? Why should Roy Moore not equally enjoy such presumption of innocent until PROVEN guilty which came to the aid of then candidate Trump. Alleged happenstances of about 40 years ago, a period when memory would have gone dim, should not be weighted against a man who has been in the public eye for so long and have ran for several offices so many times, without any of these ever coming out prior to the present. 

ICHEOKU says Ivanka Trump is wrong in saying that she now believed the women who are accusing Roy Moore; especially when she did not believe those who accused her father. She should not have joined the Lynch mob, with pitch forks, who are trying to force out a good man who is loved by his people of Alabama from completing his race to the Senate. They have tried every other thing possible, including spending over thirty million dollars to deny him the chance of coming to Washington DC and they failed. Now, they have dredged up some losers on the lunatic fringe to mouth off allegations of what allegedly happened over three decades ago. ICHEOKU says even if what they alleged happened, what took them this so long. Simply put, they are now too old to be a compelling reason to deny Judge Roy Moore his joining the United States of American Senate, as a Senator representing the great State of Alabama. Not good.

Imagine Ivanka, who should be the last person expected to opine on the alleged matters of sexual indiscretions leveled against Roy Moore, after the grueling experience his father went through during last year's presidential election campaign by the same Washington Swampers, to now say that she believed those women, is rather mind boggling. On what basis did she arrive at this conclusion or should women's accusations simply automatically become truth just because they said so. Did Ivanka first check her statement by her father, before going public with it. If so, on what basis did she think that Roy Moore's accusers should be believed when Americans did not believe her father's own accusers, but gave him a pass last year and elected him president. What other smoking gun evidence did she rely on, when even the Access Hollywood live recording was not weighted against her father. But she now wants Team MAGA to hang Judge Roy Moore because an autographed book was presented with a supposed signature of Judge Moore? 

ICHEOKU says where is the justification and had the then candidate Donald John Trump been hounded and stampeded out of the presidential race, would America today have a President Donald John Trump? Simply put, Ivanka Trump Kushner goofed and should not have spoken in the matter of Judge Roy Moore as she who lives in a glass house should not throw stones. She cannot in all sincerity pass judgment on a man who is being similarly pilloried as her father was. It does not make sense; not at all. Therefore, Ivanka's statement that  "There’s a special place in hell for people who prey on children and I’ve yet to see a valid explanation and I have no reason to doubt the victims’ accounts” is a sham. Where was her father's own "valid explanation" and on what reasonable basis did she doubt those women who line up against her father last year? 

ICHEOKU says whoever advised Ivanka to make the statement got it all wrong. It was presumptuous; and if care is not taken, such a holier than thou attitude will force the Trumps to pay a price next election. The statement might eventually come around to hunt her father's reelection campaign in 2020 as Team MAGA will remember who threw one of their own select Senate candidate under the bus, just because the elitist Washington DC group wanted it.  Why should Ivanka play alongside just to appear acceptable to the same group of Never Trumpers, who never wanted her father to become president. ICHEOKU reiterates that all these piling up against Judge Roy Moore must end forthwith; otherwise it will be interpreted by Alabamans as an attempt to deny their favorite son a chance to represent them in the Senate. A challenge to their independence which they will not accept but will rise up to, in unison, tell Washington swampers that they wont back down. Alabamans don't wait to be told what to do and that Alabamans can think for themselves. Vote Roy Moore for Senate. Go Roy Moore. God's speed to a good man who did nothing wrong,

ROBERT MUGABE: ZIMBABWE'S COUP IS ILLEGAL AND UNACCEPTABLE.

ICHEOKU says regardless of the otherwise would have been beneficial reason, removing an elected president of a democratic society through unconstitutional means of a military putsch is illegal and therefore unacceptable to a civilized world. Therefore the removal of Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe by the country's armed forces is condemnable and should be condemned by everyone. Nothing justifies the military intervention in Zimbabwe as there is an acceptable manner of effecting change in democratic societies - it is called election. Ironically, it is the same military that sabotaged Morgan Richard Tsvangirai attempt to succeed President Robert Mugabe through an election that is now forcefully removing the sitting president, while pretending to be acting to save Zimbabwe from corrupt government insiders. 

ICHEOKU calls on Africa Union to register their disapproval to the Zimbabwe's military and ask them to restore President Robert Mugabe to office immediately. They should alongside other people of Zimbabwe wait for next year's election to vote him out of office, if they so desire. ICHEOKU says in the same manner as the other three previous coups of the last decade in Fernada Po and Principe, Mali and Guinea-Bissau were overruled by ECOWAS regional body, and civilian rule reinstated, the Zimbabwe's development should equally be checkmated. South Africa should lead the charge and if the Zimbabwe's military hesitates, to forcibly remove them from office pronto. European Union and all those anti- Mugabe foreign countries should either apply equal denunciation to the coup or completely butt out of an African internal affair matter. ICHEOKU says Africans should reject military interventions in Africa politics; say no to the Zimbabwe's military. Restore President Robert Mugabe to office, immediately and unconditionally.

PENTECOASTAL CHURCHES: THE ENEMY WITHIN THE HOUSE OF GOD - REMI OYEYEMI

It is only a matter of time before the chicken comes home to roost for the agents of religious deceit. Those who cocooned themselves in the garb of evangelism, pretending to win souls when in fact they are winning naira, dollars and pound sterling for their pockets and families. It is only a matter of time before their true colors are seen by the discerning. By their fruits we shall and will know them.

They are ruthless and vicious entrepreneurs masking as men and women of piety. They are mean, cruel, cold and hungry wolves prowling the nooks and crannies of our society preying on the weak, the poor, the vulnerable and the unwary. Pretending to be men and women of God Almighty, their lack of compassion, odious deceit, greed, exploitation and lack of kindness rival that of the devil. To discern and decipher any modicum of godliness in them is a yeoman's titanic task.

Yes, granted that most Christian and Muslim leaders, yes most, because we must not paint all with the same brush, are ferocious leeches fleecing the life out of our people, the Pentecostals represent the worst of these licentious locusts ravaging our polity. They are selfish, self centered, obnoxiously acquisitive egomaniacal predators. They take all and everything but give nothing in return.

I started off at the Anglican Primary School, Òkè -Imobì, Ìwàrà, in Osun State and finished up at St. Michael Cherubim and Seraphim Primary School, Òkè-Sênì, in the very heart of Ibadan, Oyo State. My secondary education was at Cherubim and Seraphim High School, Ilesa. I am more than enormously proud of these Schools because they laid the foundation of what I have been able, by God's grace, to become today.

There were and still are several primary and secondary schools owned by the Cherubim and Seraphim, Catholics, Methodist, Anglican, Baptist, Seventh Day Adventist, African Church and many Christian Churches and organizations. Ditto for many of the Muslim missions. Those Schools were within reach for and of many. They laid good life foundation for millions of children who passed through them.

Despite one's suspicion of Christianity and Islam as foreign faiths with imperialistic socio - religious and politico - economic motives, these early missions and their indigenous genre that came later on, all contributed several positives to the polity. They built not just affordable schools, they built hospitals all over. They did their best in giving back to the society in many ways.

Then came the egregiously greedy goons of Pentecostalism. Impelled and propelled by noxious materialism, they preached dubious prosperity meant to improve the lives of the anchors and impoverish the "sheep", obviously so called because of their docility and vulnerabilities. They ridiculed and mocked the moderately ascetic living style of the leaders of the Orthodox Churches. 

They glorified shameless flamboyancy with translucent horrifying hollowness and serendipitous shallowness. They misled and enticed their unwary victims called "followers" with glittering outwards that are vacuous at the core. Ostentation was glamorized in the midst of want, poverty and squalor. They exuded and reveled in reeking arrogance becoming unfeeling, unperturbed, unconcerned, unloving and uncaring except where money is concerned.

Their aridity in and of spirituality turned them into baptized agents of misery and gnashing of teeth for our people. They turned the Bible upside down as they engage in self serving selective quoting of the Book. The Pentecostals are the proofs of what the Bible warns against about the dexterous ability of the Satan to quote the Bible copiously in justification of its evil deeds.

These so called Pentecostals are enemies of our Nation. They are against our culture and traditions. They are against our values of accommodation, compassion, tolerance and  sensible civility in Yoruba land in particular. They preach to destroy the essence of our Yorubaness by attacking important elements of our culture and tradition.

In addition they enslave the minds of our people fostering odious docility, engendering political passivity, ineptitude and ineptness; inebriating our people with dangerous and debilitating indifference to moral, social, economic and political degeneration in the larger milieu. They encourage a genre of individualism than the vampire crude Capitalism could ever dream of and repeatedly axe our communality.

They are active antagonists if not committed, persevering enemies of our Yoruba heritage. They promote parlous life ideas that are of no value to their "sheep". Everything Yoruba nay African is denigrated and demonized with unrestrained and often placed enthusiasm. They glamorized fake living as they encourage their "sheep" to mimic fake and banal tenets of Westernism. From figurative "sheep", they turned their followers to real "sheep" of the worst form, cultureless, directionless with amoebic and formless identity bereft of any uniqueness. 

They are mostly, intellectually incapacitated in their understanding of our essence, uniqueness and richness as a race with checkered past and great future. They demonize what they do not understand. They debauched in enthused ignorance. They are intellectually lazy and never bothered to study our ways of life, our faiths, our cultural practices before they condemn and demonize. They relish in fake righteousness and severely questionable superior moral authority.

These Pentecostals' genre of exploitation is subtle but seething in its lethality. Like a sneaky but dangerous serpent, its victims are never prepared for the suddenness of its poisonous prowl. Before they realized that they have been dispossessed of their hard earned money, more often than not, it was too late. But the victims are quick to self-console, rationalizing their misfortunes that they did it for God. Yet God spends no money and the Bible insists that salvation is free.

Yes, it is true that you could find it in the Bible that "money is the wheel of evangelism", but the Bible did not say as these Pentecostals do, that you should coarse, intimidate, blackmail, curse, threaten, cajole, dupe, trick, deceive and burden the poor, hungry, vulnerable "sheep" to get the money. All the evangelists in the Bible had jobs and never received tithes to help themselves, their families and their evangelism.

The Pentecostals' preachment of prosperity places the plan to prune the painful plight of their tithe paying "sheep" on permanent pause. Hence, they did not think of founding schools and hospitals like the Orthodox Churches. And occasionally, when they are staggered from the slumber of their grueling greed to found Schools, they reach further down into the decrepit dungeon of luciferous love of lucre, asking for fees out of this world beyond the reach of their long suffering members. Ooooh, my apologies, I meant their long suffering "sheep."

Then their sentries would saunter unto the public fora rationalizing the repugnant ruse, ranting relentlessly, "good education is expensive," "quality education costs money." Yet all these General Overseers, Oludasiles/Founders of these new wave Churches in the garb of Pentecostals were beneficiaries of the benevolence of others in their youth to get education. They're actively removing from others, the ladder of opportunity with which they climbed.

Pentecostals, confident cowards who could and would never see any evil in tyranny. They are so gutless they could not even stand for themselves or any of their own. Their pastors are murdered like strayed goats and they could not wimp. Their members are executed during services on Sundays and they remain deafeningly silent. Probity, integrity, social justice, equity and equality of all is not their forte. They couldn't stand for anything but fall and crumble for anything like a house of cards. 

These Pentecostals, all they care about is money, money, money and money. Even those miserable "sheep" euphemized as "members" or "followers" could never count on them at anytime for anything. They are potent enemies within our society. They are poisonous to our social milieu. They are parasitic conscienceless leeches on our economy. They are enablers of politics of charlatanism. They are shining purveyors of religious shenanigans. They are enemies within.

THE TEXAS CHURCH MASSACRED: MAY THEIR SOULS REST.

ICHEOKU says may the good Lord give them rest and to their bereaved families, the fortitude to bear the loss. SAD. 

HILLARY CLINTON SHOULD LOOK IN THE MIRROR - LINCOLN CHAFEE

"It's been a year since the election and the Clinton people just haven't looked in the mirror over the course of this year. They've been blaming the Russians and everybody else, blaming Sen. Sanders. They've got to look in the mirror and say how could we, as a Clinton campaign, lose to a seemingly unelectable man. They're blaming everybody in sight but themselves. 

Find me 10 people in Wisconsin that voted for Donald Trump or for Hillary Clinton because of the Russians. I just don't think you'll find them. It was the e-mail controversy. It was the Clinton Foundation controversies; it was the speeches to Goldman Sachs controversies. It was the ethical issues; it was the arrogance. I just don't think it was the Russians. 

Three hearty cheers for Donna Brazile. I like a truth teller and, yes, absolutely. There were only four of us that dared to challenge Hillary Clinton for the nomination, and we always thought that the fix was in with the DNC. I know I felt that way through the whole course of it and then even getting into some of the mainstream media." - Lincoln Chafee, Democrat, former governor and Congressman from Rhode Island. 

ICHEOKU says another wise lone voice amidst the cacophony shrouding the Hillary Clinton's occult following. Yes, Lincoln Chafee knows what he is talking about, Hillary Clinton was rejected by the American people and it was not the Russians that made them do so. Salute to his courage for speaking up when so many are deathly afraid to go up at the Clintons or call them for who they are. 

WHO IS AFRAID OF A SENATOR MOORE?

ICHEOKU says after nearly forty years in public office and about eight elections he participated in during so many decades, nothing was heard, not even a whiff. So for this allegation to come out now is nothing short of a hatchet job, orchestrated by the NEVER MOORE crowd and their Swamp establishment sponsors who do not want a straight shooting purist in the United States of American Senate. 

But drain the swamp is a task that must be done and Judge Roy Moore will help see the effort through. Vote Moore for the Senate. He will represent Alabama creditably well in the Washington DC. Show them pepper Judge and please DO NOT backdown or cave in to the latest attempt to blackmail you out of running. Trump did not backdown and so should you. Salute

FREEDOM IS NEVER FREE: REMEMBER TO THANK THE VETERANS.

ICHEOKU says on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, peace was restored to the world, thanks to Veterans who sacrificed unquantifiable to purchase the enduring freedom. 

We therefore, on every anniversary of that historic event, remember their heroics and celebrate them for their bravery and selflessness. For their service, we are thankful; and for their sacrifice, we are grateful.  Happy Veterans Day America and to all the Veterans throughout the world. A grateful ICHEOKU joins millions of other similarly appreciative world in honoring your priceless answer to duty when duty called. Thank you.

ROY MOORE: A VICTIM OF GOTCHA HATCHET JOB AMERICAN POLITICS.

ICHEOKU says who still remembered what happened to them nearly forty odd years ago, particularly a 14 year old child. The latest accusation and allegations against Justice Roy Moore by some American women, a specie who are very notorious for often making up stories about past experiences, particularly one that occurred many decades ago, is rather suspect to say the least. Why did they not come out with the story when it happened or even much earlier before this time and so close to the Senate election in Alabama. 

For a man who has been in the public space for so long and has contested several elections in the past without any whiff of such improprieties, makes the allegations only plausible with the suspension of disbelief. Justice Roy Moore contested eight different  elections in Alabama over the many decades of his participation in public service, leading up to his clinching the nomination to contest for the Alabama Senate seat which was  vacated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and which saw a brutal primaries which he also won. None of these sexual accusations came up during the primaries or in any of the other previous elections which he was involved in; so why now? The only answer that makes any plausible sense is that this is the last line joker of the NEVER MOORE motley Swamp crew to try and derail his destined Senate train to Washington DC; in their last ditch effort to make their wish come through not to see such a purist join them in their swampy Washington Senate chamber. 

What happened to the rule of law that an accused is presumed innocent until proved guilty; but with the Roy Moore accusation everybody is mouthing hysterically off that he should immediately withdraw from the race and there is no conclusive reasonable basis to substantiate the allegation except the she said and he said ongoing brickbat. President Donald John Trump was nearly similarly railroaded out of the presidential election by similar slew of sexual molestation allegation of women of America, over fifteen of whom lined up then to 'say me too.' Where are these lecherous daughters of Eve today who leveled false allegations against the president and where have they all crawled into since the last election, only that no one knows. They were all hired guns and they came, did a job which they were paid handsomely to do and disappeared into the thin air; admitted they failed woefully to achieve their principal objective to force Donald John Trump to withdraw from the last election. ICHEOKU says to Roy Moore to take a page from then candidate Trump's fighting play book and firm his shoulders to do man-o-mano with these hatch jobbers. 

Imagine what would have happened to America had the then candidate and victim Donald John Trump not manned up to fight his traducers off alongside their lying witnesses. People who were leading false charges and manufacturing evidences and doing it with an executioner's ease. Therefore, ICHEOKU says Justice Roy Moore must treat the latest allegations as what they are; an attempt by his detractors to achieve through the backdoor what they could not achieve at the polls by frontally prosecuting their case against the Justice before the Alabama people who knows Justice Roy Moore better and have severally elected him into various offices in the past. It is simply too much of a happening and recurring decimal in America for women to line up and give false testimonies against a targeted male contenders of an office, who has a bulls-eye marked on their back. ICHEOKU is not here saying whether or not a sexual pass was made in 1979; but this is 2017 and why did whoever the supposed victim/s wait for this long before creeping up with the salacious details of what allegedly happened to them in the hands of then attorney Roy Moore. Why now and why in this particular election if not to purposely derail his coming to Washington DC.

Something does not smell right with the narrative and it is not strong enough a ground for Roy Moore to withdraw from the race for United States of American Senator of the great State of Alabama. These detractors and members of the Washington Swamp establishment must not be allowed to win and they will not win. Good enough Roy Moore has said that he is not going to withdraw, but will go full throttle with trying to secure the mandate of his Alabama people, who he plans to represent in the United States of American Senate. This is how real men fight, to the finish and against all odds. The cowboy hat wearing and horse riding Alabaman has proved so many times that he has a backbone of steel and must fight this election to its conclusive end. Hopefully the people of Alabama will see the sham that is the current allegations and treat same for what they are - garbage; and vote to elect Roy Moore and send him to Washington DC to help in the effort to drain the swamp. ICHEOKU heretofore, endorses Justice Roy Moore for Senate and wish him victory in the coming Alabama Senate election. God's speed Judge. 

RCCG'S ENOCH ADEBOYE: PAY YOUR TITHES OR STAND CONDEMNED?

ICHEOKU says the real test of a man is where he stands in times of great adversity. When the soul of every conscionable man is challenged and tested by the dictates of time, urging them to do something, where does he stand. This is the imperative of the now and this is the basis of looking at Pastor Enoch Adeboye through the microscope of moral authority. 

So much has been happening in Nigeria since the advent of the current government of President Muhammadu Buhari, particularly to the Christian communities in Nigeria, including the Redeemed Christian Church of God, which two members have been slaughtered by fanatical muslims zealots and which he pastors as the General Overseer. But this supposed man of God or rather god of men has maintained a deathly conspirator's silence, leading many Nigerians to ask, is it because one of his pastors is the Vice President? Thus his Vice President Osinbajo being part of the horror-filled Fulani Government of Nigeria, Enoch Adeboye is constrained and  hamstrung from condemning the government and/or leading the call for the government to do better and to stop killing fellow Nigerians. 

It should also not have mattered whether those being killed are Middle Beltans or Ndigbo or Niger Deltans and not his ethnic Yoruba people. At least every Nigerian share in the common humanity that constitute Nigeria and this should have motivated Enoch Adeboye, in addition to being a man of God who should condemn and is expected to condemn every form of evil wherever it rears its ugly head. 

But the man of God simply disappeared from the scene and was hardly heard from; not even when a pastor of his church was beheaded in Kano and another member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God was killed in Abuja. Hundreds of Christians in Southern Kaduna were slaughtered, but Enoch Adeboye was silent. Christians in Nimbo Nise Enugu State were slaughtered, but the man of God said nothing. Christians of Agatu community Benue State were murdered yet the GO kept his mouth shut. The slaughter happened in Taraba State but Enoch Adeboye was not impressed enough to utter a word. President Muhammadu Buhari has been running Nigeria like a private Fulani fiefdom, but the man of God, who is supposed to be fearless, continuously cowered down with his mouth sealed with duct tape silence. 

The impunity of the Fulani government of Nigeria led by President Muhammadu Buhari and aided by Vice President Osinbajo continued till this day, but the General Overseer did not find it sufficient enough reason to remind the president of his earlier assurances that he belonged to nobody. Two years has passed since President Muhammad Buhari's inauguration and for this two years has the General Overseer sealed his lips concerning the atrocious government of Fulani for Fulani and by Fulani being run by the same man who lied to Nigerians when he said he belonged to nobody, as it has since been proved that the Fulani ethnic group is his only loyalty and that he wears his Fulani hat and sees through Fulani lens while running a Fulani fealty called Nigeria.

Suddenly, an anti-tithe crusader, who is trying to educate the afraid and gullible Nigerians about wasting their money on these pastors in the name of tithe, happened on the stage and that forced Enoch Adeboye out of his hiding and hibernation. Really? He methodically  crawled out from whatever hole he was hiding in, in his undisclosed location, to condemn the crusader. This shows that Enoch Adeboye is in it for the lucre, period.  He is in it for the money and it is also safe to say that only money effectively touches and stirs Enoch Adeboye's consciousness and goad him into action. A nondescript lumberjack is threatening his money tree with a chainsaw of truth in hand, and Enoch Adeboye must decisively act fast to stop the bleeding. Yes, somebody was finally, bravely explaining to Nigerians that tithing is not necessarily of Jesus Christ as it was not approved by his teachings; and the GO, sensing that this guy is pouring sand in his garri, sprung into action like a lioness whose cub has been threatened or stolen. 

He jumped up to retort and condemn the anti-tithing guy as a mad man who has lost his mind. Just listen to Enoch Adeboye's statement in condemning the guy, wherein he did not counter the issue of tithing nor the glaring evidence adduced by the guy against it. Rather, he attacked the guy's person, in the manner of some one attacking a messenger instead of the message; for suggesting that tithe paying Christians should consider buying alcohol with their money and partying inside the church or any other agreed place of merriment alongside other congregants. The GO, queried: who drinks in a church and who goes to the church with drinks to party. The GO clearly avoided the issues raised concerning the fleecing of poor Nigerians of their money in the name of tithing. The GO  failed to address the appropriateness of the practice, especially regarding poor people of his church who can hardly afford their meals and children's school fees, but whose money Enoch Adeboye, heartlessly and continuously collects as tithes in exchange for a sham and fake promised miracle of abundance and riches. 

ICHEOKU says this his below par performance by General Overseer Enoch Adeboye reminds ICHEOKU of then President Barack Obama, soon following his first election, scolding poor Americans for spending their money gambling it away in Las Vegas in a hopeless expectation of a jackpot windfall. Las Vegas Commission on Tourism cried foul, pounced on Obama, accused him of threatening their livelihood; and aided by some casino moguls, the president was forced to beat a quick retreat, made a retraction in which he urged  Americans to continue enjoying themselves and carrying on with whatever activities that gives them joy and happiness, including of course gambling away their money in Las Vegas. It is called the power of the purse and it is powerful and many has been killed for endangering its continuous flow. This guy was the then President Barack Obama and Nigerians are the poor Americans gambling their money away in a casino called Redeemed Christian Church of God. The casino owner, feeling threatened by possible income depletion by the activities of this guy, which he did not find a laughing matter, has like the Empire, struck back. As far as Enoch Adeboye was concerned, this guy and his education of Nigerians were bad jokes gone too far and must be stopped before a man is forced to part ways with his money, The faucet must not be allowed to shut down; neither will the goose that lays his golden eggs be allowed to grow wiser and go into menopause immediately. 

ICHEOKU says this says a lot about the man Enoch Adeboye, that were he Igbo, may be some people would have excused his apparent love of money. This is a man who did not step up to the plate when two female members of his church, one a pastor, were murdered by Muslim Islamist fanatics. Here is a man who did not utter a word when terrorists Fulani Muslim nomads perpetrate rampant atrocities and mayhem across Christian South and North central Nigeria. This is a man who looks the other way as impoverished members of his church cannot feed their hungry children or pay their hospital bills or school fees. This is a man who cannot organize a Christian Financial Bond to compete with SKUKU or establish small scale industries to help absorb the excess unemployed manpower among his church members and Nigeria in general. 

This is a man of God who could look at the so many injustices and inequities being perpetrated by President Muhammad Buhari and keep a tight lip. He kept his cool and maintained sealed lips and for nearing two years now, until the anti-tithe crusader played the ball into his eighteen yards. The goalkeeper feeling threatened must do whatever it takes to protect his goalpost. The business man who is trading on scriptures must defend his business venture, his money maker, and he rose up to fight back. 

ICHEOKU says now that Enoch Adeboye has finally exposed himself for what he truly is, a pretentious man of God but lover of money. Any Nigerian still trusting and patronizing his Redeemed business enterprise, paying him tithe, should be left to their own device. Otherwise what else would it take for any sane person to be convinced about the true stand of this guy, who is more interested in keeping his jet flying than worry about sundry stuff. His sudden appearance to condemn this crusader and protect his means of livelihood and crass opulence, is the sum total of who he really is. It is all about the real Enoch Adeboye as opposed to the one who makes faces of piety on television. He is a business man dealing on scriptures and making out like a bandit, doing it. Simply put, it is doubtful if General Overseer Enoch Adeboye is really of God and from God. He is a fake pastor and does not truly believe in the good news of Jesus Christ, otherwise why hasn't he sold off everything and follow Jesus or direct the miracles of riches to his account numbers instead of through third parties tithes contributors. But hey, feel free to go to his church and give him your money at your own risk.
