Two Global Noisemakers

Politics in several parts of the globe exists for different reasons – communism, socialism, democracy, oligarchy, monarchy, etc. and individuals who occupy political positions do so for certain purposes. In a country like Nigeria, looting of public treasury is the core and inevitable goal, no matter the individual. Its usual complement is infliction of hardship.
In the case of the United States of America, especially in the case of Donald Trump, two things have been clearly established. One, Trump did everything (which could be anything) to get into the White House in order to destroy anything that has links with the name of Barack Obama. Two, he wants to make a lot of noise with a mindset that the United States is his incorporation and he is the president of the world. The noise in this case, if it is not checked by the US Congress, could lead to a global catastrophe. What specific disaster? A possible Third World War.
With Kim Jong-un in Pyongyang and the continued investments of North Korea’s resources in nuclear arsenal, the trumpet of arrogance and ineptitude in the White House is blowing loud without prudence for a war. Is that what the world needs now?
Before Barack Obama left the White House in January this year, the United States, for the first time, had two presidents. Obama was the president in the White House while Trump was the president on Twitter. Obama’s “yes” on any issue in the White House got a “no” of Trump on Twitter. Is that not ridiculous?
Were Americans even logical during the voting process? This question is necessary. Why? Is it not even morally treasonous, if not legally, for any individual in the US (resident or citizen) to publically or privately invite foreign government to invade the privacy of a fellow America? Was the call/invitation of Trump not broadcast on national TV when he shouted many times for days that Russian should hack anything that is related to Hillary Clinton?
If Trump could blow his trumpet loud and louder on TV during the campaign in such a way, will it not be logical for any one that would challenge him in 2020 America’s presidential election to shout on TV and the internet that “North Korea, should hack everything that is connected to Donald Trump”? If that should happen, would such a candidate be charged for treason? The answer can be guessed.
As Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un are now the biggest political noisemakers, let us pray that the two inexperience, naïve, inept and childlike political office holders, irrespective of their ages, would not destroy the relative peace of the world in the steaming situation of media propaganda and indiscriminate use of words.
The time is now for Rex Tillerson and others to ask Trump and Jong-un some important questions:
§  How many of Donald Trump’s children will lead the US forces to the battle field should a war start?
§  If the war starts, will Kin Jong-un be the first fighter on the battle ground with his Kalashnikov?
We all know the answer. It is an emphatic “no”. The two noisemakers would hide in havens; usually secret locations or known ones that would be heavily protected.
So, why must the world be on its knees as the trumpets in the US blows without logical control? Or are Kim and Donald vying to be the president of the world?

Psalm 23 of Nigerian Politics

To start your reading attempt of this article, you may have to switch your mind to the popular Psalm 23 in The Holy Bible because the verses below are readable in the same rhythm. Democracy is my shepherd, I shall always loot. It makes me richer than the voters; it places me above the law. It restores my position. It gives me right to oppress for oligarchy’s sake. Even though I campaign in the valleys and ghettos of hardship, I fear no opposition; for all results of elections shall comfort me. It prepares a vault of dollars on my table in the presence of the people’s cry; it anoints my foreign accounts with euro, pounds, dollars, and yen; my milk overflows. Surely, self-interest and wealth shall follow me all the days of my terms. And I shall dwell in the house of failure-politics, forever. Amen! This is the imperfect inspiration that rings without end in the minds of all failure-politicians in Nigeria. Every day, every minute, everywhere and anyhow, they recite...

The Beginning and an End

Image
Seasonality is a feature that characterises the existences of all things. The reason for this is better known to the master of all creations, Yahweh. Humans, plants and animals all exist for limited times; occupy some positions for certain reasons; authorise their views to accomplish one goal or the other; and execute certain ideas when they are alive and in the positions to do such. The end of everything is a signifier that nothing lasts forever; only God reigns for eternity. The White House When Donald Trump accepted and celebrated the announcement of his victory to be the 45th president of the United States of America in November 2016, I realized that, as a man, he lacks integrity and self-principle. Why? A man of principle and moral stand does not eat whatever he condemns. Before the election, he condemned, dented, mocked, defamed, undermined and stigmatized the constitutional electoral college system, which had been in practice for decades before he was born. In his view, popular...

A Mockable Fire Service

Image
If Nigerians who are knowledgeable about public services in the UK or/and the US are asked to make comments on the efficiency of the fire departments in the two aforementioned countries, what their responses might be could be guessed. Even if the respondents have never been to the West, a 2013 thriller titled The Call that features Abigail Breslin and Halle Berry is enough to convince anyone that public services in the US or Canada are not for jokers or façade public administrators whose priorities are self-interests and social media posts of imaginary achievements. Here is an important question that requires our attention: Is it logically possible for two fire service trucks to arrive at a scene of a fire outbreak without water two hours after emergency numbers were called? Rescuers at the scene For anyone who lives in France or the United Kingdom or even Egypt, such could be a fiction. But for residents of Lewis Street in Abule Taylor of Alimoso, Lagos, Nigeria, is ...
