Conspiracy Theory
Watching Governor Jesse Ventura dig up conspiracies
is interesting. I have always been fascinated by
these, especially so when you discover even just
one to be true. Wow, you say to yourself, so men
really think in this way. Yes, indeed, man is
manipulative and will use his power to influence
reality.
The American Press and perhaps segments of its
intelligentsia have lapped up the story, without
a second thought, Cousin Mayowa, without a second
thought about its veracity--that a young Nigerian,
wealthy and alienated, was "radicalized in Yemen"
and then got instructions to blow up a plane. This
sounds very fishy to me, Mayowa, and yet no one
smells this fish in the American media and perhaps
segments of its intelligentsia. But then I'm
a bit wacko when it comes to conspiracies. But how
is it possible for the CIA not to know that this
Nigerian was traveling to the Middle East and
Yemen while with a multiple entry Visa signaling
intent to visit the United States (or Germany?)
A second glance, what might it reveal?
Was the observational capacity of the Americans
decimated with ambiguity, causing the Americans
to follow the wrong people, while this wealthy
and Alienated blogger was being radicalized?
It seems to me that any retaliatory strikes in
Yemen would have to be done with the highest
standards in mind. Bill Clinton learned this
in the Sudan where he was unable to dispel
dissent about the target he chose to project
America's power. I think we are outmatched
in this war on terror if we believe that we
can solely use the tools of the criminal
justice system to track a conspiracy that
is as wide as the globe itself.
Or that's the analysis...

We Will Not Rest: Al Kaeda in Nigeria?
We will not rest until the plotters are found.
This sounds like "we'll smoke them out." An official
pronouncement. But will we in fact rest before
the plotters are found? Is this a mea culpa
suggesting that there is, in fact, a war on
terror and that such a context is in fact
the only feasible way to combat terrorism?
However unintellectual it sounds? If we
continue like this, using grave pronouncements
but following up with half hearted policy, then
we will be worse off than the Bush Administration,
which could not admit that Saudi Arabia and
Pakistan held a certain responsibility for 9-11.
In the case of Pakistan, the administration
was allied in the chase against Al Kaeda and
Bin Laden. I witness that. But now, having
been an eager journalist at NASA and the NSA,
ooing and cooing over formulae "and stuff,"
the question is asked of me by those who are
familiar with my alliance building over
a decade--is Nigeria allied with the United
States in catching the plotters? Even
if we find that they are in Nigeria, at
whatever levels of the hierarchy? Will
we, in fact, rest before the plotters
are caught? Is President Obama more
hot air than our previous champion,
George Bush? The future, Mayowa,
the future will tell....
Ogun knows... ;-)

Who's Got your Kids, Nigeria?
A brief history of recent Nigeria. A short while back
the Ambassador-designate from Nigeria was rejected
by the U.S. because his son was involved in a criminal
case. Wired. His son. ? He had, apparently, raped
a girl with two other Nigerians. (And expected, or were
instructed, that they would get away...)....
Now, we have a wealthy Nigerian boy attempting to blow
up a plane, instructed, he claims, "by Al Qaeda." Given
the potent stuff "and instructions" from Yemen. How
did he get it? Does one go shopping around the backstreets
of "the Middle East" for stuff like that?

Gaza: One Year After
I was moved to take the side of Israel before
the Gaza offensive, for there were those who
made it so. And then fire was unleashed from
the heavens in the presence of men and I
shuddered for the sins of a few. If I bear
any responsibility for the lives of children
in Gaza, the weight of that responsibility now
clearly squarely lies on Abuja's shoulders as
we continue to acquire more details into the
ways of the double-minded. Nigeria is gravely
ill and should a commitment not be inspired,
this minute, to real change--real reform,
then Nigeria shall die. And she shall be
buried by the children of Gaza.

The Nigerian Bomber
The news is intriguing. If he had succeeded, then
it would have been a few months before his father
reminded us all that he had told us about his son
prior. Up till that point, there would have been
much speak of a passenger manifesto and his name, talib,
would stand out. After ooing and aaing, then his father
would have said, "come to think of it" we haven't
seen the bugger in a year or two. I think it might be
him.
Instead, either he was given the wrong instructions so
that he would fail, or he failed to do his job correctly,
but now we have him alive. And must watch carefully
all things about him. For this fellow could possibly lead
us to bin laden.... no?

I continue to stand with the people of Iran
...though engaged as a neutral party, as a non-neutral
observer I continue to stand with the people of Iran
and their legitimate aspirations for greater representation
and more responsible government. It is the right of all
people to agitate, where necessary, for better government
without fear of threat to their body or person. I wish
the current administration would stand with the people of
Iran too, for it might signal weakness and upend any scheduled
"talks" to continue to allow the discredited junta pursue its
ignoble aims.
But I'm a neutral party, at least in so far as communications
between the west and Iran is concerned.

The Root of All Evil
Are these equivalent, and why? (i.e., a la "times and half a time" is
THIS the bible code?)
[10] For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
AND
[16] Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
FROM
[4] And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
[5] For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
[6] And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
[7] And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

preserve, I, too, have... similar concerns. I am,
by tradition, a Christian. I celebrate the principles
behind the teaching of that son of Musa, Jesus the Christ,
and aggregate with his followers... from time to time.
I have begun studying the Holy Quran, but such is a venture
that will last one thousand years. Nonetheless, the journey
of a thousand years has begun with its first year and I am
glad to report that I have a certain aptitude for the manner
and way of the East. God is great.
Hypnosis, trance, psychological bondage. What do these words
mean? They mean that Southern Nigeria remains morally deferent,
by actions of her leaders, to the North. If Southern Nigerian
leaders, for example Araba Abimbola, cannot demonstrate a morality
that is acceptable to the so-called high civilizations, then
we must ask ourselves why. And allow the Hausa to continue

What the Day of Judgment could look like
A Measurement of Truth as it is seen by many,
including my humble self.
I learned to lucid dream in 1999, while trying
to see if it was true what I had heard about
US Remote Viewers. Indeed, soon, and just by
trying, I could be awake during the most vivid
dreams and at some point volition became relevant
and then possible. It is a sensation of flying.
Whatever the context, one is able to maintain a
sense of presence during dreams, but then one
can forget these dreams the moment one wakes up
for their displacement in space was an illusion.
You are still where you are and that is reality.
But the dream was intriguing to me. At some point
I stumbled upon what I have to myself called the
"Hall of Records" where a human voice narrates
a story and visions and scenes from it play out
as the voice narrates in sequence. Who are these
people and who are they talking to, who are they
telling these stories to, you wonder? Until
one day you are just about to fall asleep, just
at the moment when you are about to officially
lose consciousness then realize that you have
been talking in your head to someone, stringing
words together. Well, hello to your thought.
So I learned to follow my thoughts into dreamland
and they blossomed into dreams and adventures. Once
I felt a sense of displacement as though I was flying
but in truth it was me still being aware of physical body
in space while not using my motor senses. It's a rush.
The dream, it turns out, is simply a signal of light
that is generated from your daily memory, and to the extent
that in the day time it is possible to be enveloped
by the will or conversation of a person, then the night time
translation would explain the hall of records.
Within three years I knew where to go in dream land and when.
The seasons change our memories, though at the time I was
unaware that the dreams were being generated by the interaction
between my memories and my daily views of life. This... signal
led me to believe that one day, in the dark of the universe, one
signal of light did not end. It stayed alive even after the location
where it existed had corrupted. It stayed alive as the presence of
an eternal memory whose thought was talking to God.
Eventually talk stopped and the thought became silent. But the light
still shone in the dark.
"Arise" God said.
"...and there was light...

What the name means
"God is powerful" my name speaks. It is not
just a wish, but more a careful observation
by a scribe of history, who saw with his
own two eyes, opened up into conceptions
at the time unknown, God's mysterious way
in a manner which, to him and many of the
just and honest, was obvious. You see,
BECAUSE of what God says when God moves
there are many who condemn themselves to
eternal destruction on the great and terrible
day of judgment because they deny that God
exists, even after they have seen God move.
And so today Nigeria stands in Judgment,
and the name Chief (Oba) Akarue gave me
reveals itself.
You probably will try to negotiate, as all
men of doubled minded fervor do, some way out.
"I have lived a good life."
Yes... but was it good enough, in the day when
God spoke to Nigeria? Did you deny, when
you heard the voice of God, that it was God
who spoke? Did you say to yourself, as Arabia
whispered, that "his God is powerful?"
Yes, Oga, God is powerful. And he is also my God.

Care
Sir:
I didn't mean to alarm anyone here in the US when
I suggested that I no longer care [as I did before]
about such things as marriage and death. But my
grandfather named me what he named me for a reason,
and it is because I am the last of the warriors
of Ogun, who can inflict terrible war on a people,
and it seems that this is Nigeria's destiny.
If it is, there will be little one can do, for
I shall use my life as a sacrifice to teach those
people a lesson they shall NEVER forget. But when
I speak with Yaya and recently Obe, I calm down and
live and let live. I marvel how.. diligent the US
is in taking account of value and how Nigeria is
about to lose the best thing that ever happened,
because of the behavior of some Yoruba fools. AT
least this much is true, I shall never return to the
Yoruba. And that's a start. Soon, if I deem
that the message is not clear, then I shall personally
begin my war in spirit... and dare Nigeria to prove
that I am not responsible for a sudden conflagration
which I then predict will overtake southern Nigeria
and parts of the North.

and it is because I am the last of the warriors
of Ogun, who can inflict terrible war on a people,
and it seems that this is Nigeria's destiny.
If it is, there will be little one can do, for
I shall use my life as a sacrifice to teach those
people a lesson they shall NEVER forget. But when
I speak with Yaya and recently Obe, I calm down and
live and let live. I marvel how.. diligent the US
is in taking account of value and how Nigeria is
about to lose the best thing that ever happened,
because of the behavior of some Yoruba fools. AT
least this much is true, I shall never return to the
Yoruba. And that's a start. Soon, if I deem
that the message is not clear, then I shall personally
begin my war in spirit... and dare Nigeria to prove
that I am not responsible for a sudden conflagration
which I then predict will overtake southern Nigeria
and parts of the North.
Marching Orders (part deux)
Got a call from Solomon Sql in Atl. I have
more marching orders. Incorporate all the
relevant "buzzwords" in achaeleon, wpf, wcf
etc, and by June seek contract work. It's
still there and it's an alternative source
of financing.

Esama and Akarue
The Office of the Oba of Benin has given the Esama
of Benin 1 week to apologize for bad behavior. Apparently
the Esama was "posing" as the Oba. These are the charges.
On the day before I was sworn in to defend the United States
against enemies foreign and domestic, I rendezvoused with
one Chief Esama in Washington DC who seemed to me to be,
quite obviously, the highest ranking Nigerian in the Federal
hierarchy--to the extent that one exists--that I had ever
met. Na bloke o, Oba. Di bob na bloke. Even oyibo dey
look am. So what's this all about?
Apparently, Chief Akarue, the registrar in the Nigerian
Customary Court of the Mid West made some pact with the
federal hierarchy. Chief Akarue was an elder in the Ogboni
as was his brother in Warri, and the two of them towered
for decades over life in those parts. We called them,
in Hollywood (true story), "the Last Egyptian Wizards."
The pact was meant to hold the Nigerian Monarchical family
at ransom, that they would not disrupt the unity of Nigeria--
not become too powerful, per se. For whatever reason, this
has meant mirroring the royal family and using me, a royal
ordained by the witness of nature and in the presence of
credible observers, as a judge. And so every sphere of
Nigeria I attend to I am met with a bipolar distinction,
one related to the Nigerian federal hierarchy, which woos
me incesantly, and one related to the Nigerian Royal family,
with whom I have become friends with many of their children,
having been elevated in status by by natural ordainment.
And so, when I heard that the Oba of Benin was going through
something similar, I had to trace the reason. The reason the
Federal Hierarchy of "Mirror Monarchs", based in National Theater
Eko, targeted the Oba, I suppose, is the Ogbe Hard Court
tennis tournament that I attended with Bata Tomo in Benin
a certain year when Tobi was commissioner. I have told and
retold this story, and even have laughed with the Oba's
office about it--the juju. Till today no one knows how that
mat began dancing, but National Theater takes such things
seriously while others shrug and laugh it off as phony tricks.
However trickish, it was impressive to see a straw bundle begin
dancing, when it was made evident that it was completely inanimate.
So, this battle in Benin is about Eko and the =Royal fam.
And I find myself in the center. On the one hand pressured
to sing "one Nigeria," on the other hand beginning to feel
that if the legitimate Royal Family can demonstrate to me
the highest levels of moral jurisprudence I would probably
be on their side--there's so much corruption at the federal
level that I cannot have my innocence tainted.
The solution, clearly, is the stemming of corruption at federal,
which would not alienate those like me who straddle the sensitive
middle ground between the Nigerian Federal Family and the Nigerian
Royal Family. The Esama's apology will only be meaningful to the
Oba, or even myself, if this bipolarity ceases and the federal
government stops fearing its own children.

Golden
We're golden sir. I've begun work on the
help avatar as well as the front page for a beta client,
ATrillion Records, and it looks very spiffy. Picture it:
achaeleon.com -- interactive programming for the web (with
Natural Language English). And I can do it and it's being
done. There is now a new but good problem. The way the
application is, it will attract or can attract millions of
casual users, a la myspace/facebook. But though it's a fun
tool, it certainly is more useful than fb or myspace, which
don't DO anything, but provide an avenue for connectivity.
So I'm remaining focused, knowing that I must advance
the business case through sound software, and if the
current build is anything to go by, it's something of a hit.
I'm now VERY confident and realize that come July I'll be asking
people to go ahead and test it at a value of $4.99 per month,
working out the kinks and ready to go large shortly thereafter.
The testers will have free accounts of course. So this is IT,
the moment I have been waiting for, the moment I begin my
return to Wall St. This time I'm coming with the Cavalry.
This time it's for real. Don't know why she's in my head
at this point in time, but shout out to Madam Yaya and the kids.
I don't believe I could be a better husband to her than her husband,
and yet... and yet... ;-) I wonder what it is about one woman
that has bewitched me so. And to escape from her spell I fell
into the spell of her friend, with whom I share... secrets in
the spirit of lust. From one goddess to the other. Who'se complaining?
In any case, not to put too fine a point on it...

When someone you know dies, you wonder where they
went. I wonder where William Greiner is on his way
to, right now, and where he is going. For one thing
is certain, this man did not die. It is irrational
to believe that because his body shall now corrupt,
the man I knew, whose... heart is lore in my legend,
it is irrational to believe that he just ceased to
exist... and solely because his flesh shall now
corrupt. No, I suspect he is dealing with law,
on maybe different terms. Maybe he is resolving
some of the even finer points he did not get to
in those days when he taught immigration law.
Who is America, he would say? Who is William Greiner?
He was a person who lived from 1934 till a few moments
ago, and that's exactly who he is. A man who once lived,
and yet somehow, mysteriously... remains, at least to
me in conviction.... alive.

Decartelizing Nigeria
What if it were General Patreus who bunkered oil meant
for the US Christmas Lights? What if it was General
Odierno who stashed ten thousand extra barrels of
crude into a ship's hull then pocketed the money
every now and again? The so-called "will" to fight
corruption in Nigeria begins at the top and thus
far it does not seem to truly exist. What exists,
nevertheless, is a standard because of which
each time corruption is revealed in the Nigerian
military hierarchy, the comparison is made with
the United States resulting in a slow but binding
realization amongst Western Nations that the Nigerian
man tolerates corruption and thus Nigeria is made of
corrupt men.

To "Mz. Solomon"
From: Black Eagle, Nat Sec Rep
Good Evening Madam Solomon. We have waited a long
time for this dialog.
"Good evening to you. I'm excited. I've heard a lot of
good things about you."
"I am a Prince. Alas I am a Prince at War"
"But tonight we have peace?"
"And maybe every other night too. Is any dream too big
for a Prince?"
"If I might be so bold, why are you at war?"
"Whenever a Prince is at war, he is at war because
of injustice."
"This injustice is taking place in your home land?"
"I call on the good people in my homeland to act, lest
the hand of God make us all wish for happier times."
"I pray that things will work out."
"They have no choice. If things don't work out, all of
mankind shall fall. I therefore take it for granted
that things worked out in the end, and operate, as
an eternal agent of God, from that perspective. What
shall you drink with me?"
"Why, I'll have some Sherry. A charming one aren't you."
"I watched the special with you and Michael one hundred times."
"Are you ... were you a fan of Michael"
"I became his friend too. Ask a Mason"
"That's... fascinating. I knew nothing about it."
"My one job is not to breach the State Secrets Act. Otherwise
there's a lot more gossip."
"Oh do tell!"

The Sand (Substance) of the [Red] Sea
The book of the Revelation of Christ is proof
that there is complete logical and mathematical
precision behind the allegory of the "Seven
Golden Candlesticks," or the Way of the Tree
of Life. Though Christ was a Scientist and
Artist of the highest pedigree, he was first
a moral man and a man of high security. Clearly.
The precision in the Revelation alludes, then,
to a precision in Leviticus that the Priests of
Moses attended to in their treatise on ritual
sacrifice. Again ordained by the Way of
the Tree of Life. The precision behind
ritual sacrifice is simply the Egyptian
tradition of Maat placed in a Jewish
allegorical context, which allegory is bounded
by the blood of an animal.
We are certain that the Babylon of Nebuchadnezzer's
time was an Egyptian civilization, therefore
we know this to be true, granting the extent of
the influence and dominance of Ancient Egypt
on the psyche of the civilized man.
Moses and HIS disciples were able to break
free of Egyptian Ritual Sacrifice as the
source of a religion by defining ritual
sacrifice in Jewish terms, or Levitican
Law. This is the sea of blood, or
the Red Sea. It is precision using
the principles from Cain and Abel to
learn what Adam did not know as a price
for having Eve to explore. And yet, Moses
was able to condense this precision, for
the masses, into ten commandments.
Similarly, Jesus and HIS disciples were
able to break free of Jewish Ritual Sacrifice
and translate the Maat of Moses, in Jewish
Form, into a Roman form that continues till
today in the Vatican. So the Vatican is
the Roman form of Maat and ritual
sacrifice law. And yet, Jesus was able to
condense this precision, times and half times
and all, into two commandments "upon which hang
all the commandments."
In 1999, precision came upon some of us. The warning,
however, is that we are now able to condense this
precision in simple statements. This gives substance
to the most modern, and therefore most accurate,
description of the Red Sea

Golden Candlesticks," or the Way of the Tree

Like Moses and Aaron
I stand here today a witness to history, the singular
voice who will tell the truth, the whole truth and
nothing but the truth, so help me Olodumare, as concerns
the talks between Party A, we shall forthwith refer
to as "Aaron" and Party B, we shall refer to as the
Federal Government. Whoever Aaron turns out to be
they must as well turn out to be the representatives
of Nigeria's Constitutional energy, ready and willing
to use their personal histories to prove the point:
Nigerians are free. Where then is the contention.
Morality. For me I use the Jewish Book of Leviticus
to adjudicate ALL ritual sacrifice, and to the extent
that there are principles behind the shedding of the
blood of an animal, I find my justice in Judaism. If
Ifa or Ohaneze Ogunabali can demonstrate to me that
their principles extend to decidedly moral behavior
then I shall not hold Judaism as being the highest
possible adjudicator of Nigerian Customary Law. Alas,
my immediate witness has been that Ifa has led the Yoruba
people astray, although I shall allow my ... brothers...
in the Federal hierarchy to prove me wrong. And if they
cannot, then so shall it be said, that Ifa was the religion
of immoral men.
As for all things after Morality.
1. The Islamic Traditions of our Northern Fathers must be
accounted for and respected.

The Future

sister. But one does not forgive a malevolent agent
of the old Nigerian guard. I have pledged to allow
the consequences of all actions stand, and when we

only then shall I consider anything associated with
reconciliation. This seems to me to be final.

in not going to govern with Christ in the Heavenly Kingdom. If
Brother Faramade is anything to go by, and we pray not, then
there is a jealousy and a lack of belief that attends the witness
of resurrection in an earthly paradise. He seems, to me, thoroughly
depressed and it is evident that those who visit with me do not
have the peace (which passeth all understanding) and so find themselves
pressured, for no reason, in my presence. I do not countenance anything
short of the peace of God, especially for those who claim to follow
Christ, so this is a serious issue and perhaps should be looked into.
The testimony, thus far, is that he doesn't believe that he'll even
make it to earthly resurrection, and this has been blatant and glaring.
I have informed him, twice, that I have people always listening with me
and I'm not sure if he understands, but it has become a matter of diplomacy
for a man of that age cannot act, relative to a man such as myself, as
unto a child. We grown.

What Belgium Thinks
Not that it matters, but when I say the "whole world"
was watching it includes my friends and family in Belgium.
Yio oro 'Ba: I was a visitor in your country and have
since returned to my people in the Niger Delta. I have
fond memories of Yoruba land, but as a representative of
those people you have given a bad account of yourself and
it is thus incumbent upon someone perhaps older, perhaps
wiser, to now speak for the Yoruba. Lest my... opinion
is cemented by your attitude... who would teach his own
child to be a thief, then announce he is a father.

For that statement, it is increasingly unlikely that

An Exemplar
Sir:
The way I understand it, I am the only adult Nigerian
to be so opportuned as to capture my childhood innocence
and transfer it into Nigerian adulthood. I am used as
a symbol of justice, at least a standard in certain
cases--seeing how bad things had become in my homeland--
and while others can afford the luxury of lax morality
I cannot. There are benefits, however, to living a moral
life ever minute of the day. And those benefits go
only, sir, to the moral.

The Interview
"...we have lift off..."
"How do you feel?"
Well, it's less reassuring than my ability to decrypt the bible,
but I'd pay $4.99 a month for the service I provide.
"So you are not anxious?"
"My anxiety is relative to my code. As proof-of-concept I'm golden
so my anxiety is not about whether I can get it done, but whether
I can get it done on time."
"How much time do you have?"
"A lot. By the time I'm done I'd pay $4.99 a month for the
service I provide."
"And how does that make you feel?"
"Like a pioneer. The use of automated intelligent agents
that speak the natural language of the client is news."
"And where would you like this published?"
"I still have a fondness for Uncle Ted's old spot..."
"CNN it is then. Do you want any fame?"
"Not the minisculest. I cherish my privacy"
"So ordered"
"What does the application currently look like?"
"A dream I had with Roy Disney"
"About Ice Cream I suppose"
"You suppose correctly. A dream about the kind of Ice Cream we BOTH wanted"
"Networking is born"

The US Dollar
Currency is relevance. Therefore, the US Dollar
is most correlated with the US Mind--to the extent
that such can be classified. The US Mind is
the US Education System coupled with the
US Housing "apparatus." There is only ONE
specific econometric model that can use this
particular logical graph. It would be wise to
use it alongside the "Virginia Model" in order
to continue building triggers that explore mismatches
in financial "laterality." It is a concept singular
to "prosperous" nations. And your prosperity, America,
is your mind.
(For example, what could the effect be, the study asks,
if all H1B jobs were instead filled by qualified Americans.
The study also asks, what would need to happen for Americans
to now begin competing for those jobs, seeing as how many
there are and what the implications are of a country unable
to staff its own independence)

Warning
Sir:
When I was working on my music, and thus unable to respond,
you did many things to provoke my ire. But I have thus
far been restrained, now that I am free to fight you,
in my response. Alas it seems that a major war is
brewing and that I shall use my life to prove my point
at the highest cost to your people and progeny. Surely,
sir, you cannot be that selfish? I have, till this moment,
used Akindele, a childhood friend, as a symbol to represent
"the Yoruba people." But if I continue to sense your lack
of capacity to take responsibility for the actions that
have now brought our nation to the brink of catastrophe
and war, then I shall join the ranks of those--and there
are myriad--who say "I don't talk to Yoruba people." And
that would put paid to any pretensions to unity in our
fragile polity. As it is, since Akindele has gravity,
it is OK to use him as a symbol. But the beginnings of
genocide are now upon us and I share common cause with
the Igbo. If I continue to be dissatisfied, then my
racism, counselled by Christian Elders, will be complete,
and I will become anti-Yoruba at the personal level. Please
attempt to see into the future and imagine what such
a disposition MUST mean in our fragile polity. Your friend,
Seni Ajayi, knows fully well that there are many anti-Igbo
and anti-Yoruba collectivities, but my joining their ranks
is the surest bet yet that Nigeria shall entertain, once
more--and to her great regret--a civil war, sir. And you
shall be to blame.

On Marriage
Sir:
It is with the gravest sorrow that I must make this report to you.
But for the next decade, my focus is on my health. I will not be
marrying any of the young and beautiful ladies in my sphere before
then, and I don't expect anyone to wait too much longer for that.
I am not truly saddened, for I am not one to be rushed into a union
that shall not last. And despite the amazing beauty I have seen
of the Nigerian women within my domain, I regret that I have other
priorities and we have YOU to thank for that sir. So YOU, sir,
not me, shall answer to their fathers when they go crying that
brother so-and-so did not want to marry them. You know how Nigerian
ladies are. You should have thought about that before you forced
me into self-exile. I am truly exiled, sir, from our people for
a very long time. If I had my way it would be for ever. But God
is kind. I remain, your opposition.

My Assessment
I lived in Nigeria till I was seventeen under a specific
system of things. Then I came to the United States and
have lived here eighteen years. Under a different
system of things. My assessment is an honest one.
It might never be the case that Nigeria redeems itself
from its current rot. The reasons have much to do with
pride and little to do with ability. The Nigerians use
their vast intelligence the wrong ways and so while they
have some of the best water ways in the world, and most
conveniently located dams, they have problem with pipe
borne water and electricity. This is the case because
of something we might call the "big man" effect. It is
a psychological statistic that is alarming which shows,
by number, that MOST Nigerian managers use their talents
for personal gain and if they used these talents to do
their jobs then Nigeria would likely be a superpower.
There are no more intelligent people in the world than
Nigerians, but intelligence is not wisdom, and this
is something Nigeria lacks dangerously. Wisdom. The wisdom
of fathers. Instead we have fathers teaching their
children to steal and made to teach their children to
be bad, in front of the whole world watching. Nobody
who has seen what I have witnessed truly believes
that Nigeria will survive. None! It is merely blind patriotism
that has us saying Nigeria will survive when in fact
it decays by the day. But then, the proof is in the pudding.
If Nigeria's leaders, as defined by those who I have
described, do not today and forthwith make a commitment
to using their intelligence to work hard and make
the needed change, then I predict the total collapse of
Nigeria "...on or about October 16th, 2013."
And this is my honest assessment. I continue
to work at LFOB-1 and enjoy my internships at NASA
tremendously (though this is a bit more than an "internship").

Yoruba Ronu
Sir:
It is the case that you believed that this "ruse" with
Akindele and Abosede would work. You surprise me,
incessantly, with your discredited argument that
you know me. Sir, it must be that you DO NOT know
me, and to the extent that my diplomacy must be
managed by those who know me, I have alerted Reston
that you are no longer to be allowed, under any auspices
or circumstances, to claim to speak for me. Akindele
I find to be totally childish and Abosede's conceptions
completely trivial. I hope these of your children do
not speak for you, for it would make a claim concerning
why our country remains the way it is. It is a great
tragedy that you could not tell that Akindele would
burn and crash, as he has. But since I put my mouth
where my heart is, I will spend the next two decades
proving to you that both Akindele and Abosede mean
nothing to one who follows the true light of Olodumare.
They are not the only ones, but you will also find
this to be true.
Sir, you bury your head in the sands like an ostrich,
relentlessly, but at this point the Americans can no
longer allow you access. So, your access is revoked
and if you try to come back, I shall inform my
Northern Nigerian brethren that the extent of your
disturbance is of a pagan bent, and we shall see
if "my power reach your power" as is your way.
I was completely taken aback by your... experiment,
mostly because I believed you at least had an idea
of how I had grown to be. But this your foolish
ruse has shown you, sir, to be a man of not very clever
ways. I realize that your emotional maturity is now
in question, and it should be. How, sir, how could
you imagine Akindele, as you sent him to me, to move
one inch further? OR Abosede with his trivial conceptions
of God and such? After all the time you have seen me
spend with elders in the Christian Church, sometimes
berating them for a lack of precision, you ought to have
known that I can only respect those who carry the true
light. Abosede does not, and you know it. And Akindele
is just the exemplar I had used to others to demonstrate
why I believe the Yoruba have their destiny set for them.
You would do well to now pay attention to developing your
sons and daughters and forget about me. For if you don't,
then you shall hurt more than these two symbols of friendship
that are YOUR symbols not mine. I am not your friend and
I am not the friend of your children. Rasta Pharaoh, sir,
walks alone. You would learn to do so as well...

Awujale
Sir:
"You have used your powers, will you now not have me use mine?"
"But why must it involve my children?"
"Because the only power I have is my friendship with them. You should
have thought about it before you moved."
"And where will that leave you?"
"Let Olodumare decide that. But from this moment on, as God
is my witness, my friendship with your children dies."
"And then what?"
"That's it. I expect never to hear from them or to have to. If
it comes to it then there will be a demonstration that it is unwise
for them to 'bother me' and it shall be done without prejudice to
the cost."
"You need friends."
"And as long as they are not your progeny I shall have them. But
in exercising these powers, know that I am the son of the Most High
and that you were nothing more than a demagogue when you dared to
challenge me."
"I pray that we shall find peace."

American Renaissance
Sir:
Since 1999 I've been "backstage" at virtually every
awards show, helping out with logistics. This year,
invited to be a part of the AMA's I declined. I was
"busy." It is significant.
Having watched episodes of the Ed Sullivan show
and having seen Carson in his twilight I decry
the decline in American popular culture. The very
same reasons the Banking sector crashed are reasons
because of which people like me are increasingly
too busy to take part in previously sacrosanct activities.
The culture of voyeurism, the rush to view someone else's
reality is nauseating. And just as the bankers, because
it seems a good investment, cheap and easy to make and without
having to pay those who truly make drama come to life--writers--
the executives have decided that the new format de jeure is
reality TV. And so American writing has begun to suffer and
American culture has begun to decline. That the show
Arrested Development had zero ratings while foolishness
like "Life with Jon and Kate" or whatever took millions in
is proof of my point. This IS an American decline, and though
it has been heralded in times past, never by America's favorite
son. To the extent that we can do anything about it I have
used what powers I have to dissent in the industries of music
and screenplay activity. But my powers are as limited as my
talent is not. Now being taken seriously in places like France,
people like myself wonder what has happened to the edge that Freedom
gave America. It now seems that freedom is an experiment vastly
on its way to failing, for to see how many thousands of our children
expose their breasts for beads or demonstrate illicit sexuality for
the camera, dousing themselves with champagne and beer, reflects
a critical divide in America's trajectory. What ever happened
to the energy that came from the Sixties and Seventies and even
early eighties and nineties. Me, a product of the nineties, will
not move forward with American culture if it is a rejection of
morality and the embrace of stupidity and crass foolishness.
But then I'm only one. Then again... I'm not alone.

But then I'm only one. Then again... I'm not alone.

Fighting against Jihad
Sir:
Allow me to call your attention to Osama Bin Laden's 2nd
interview where he made the statement--having already
passed a fatwa against the United States--that in his
war against the West he "no longer distinguished between
civilians and military." This is something the AG did
not address when he said that "more civilians died" during
the attacks. He completely ignored that Bin Laden's organization
is an Islamic Terrorist organization with Islamic Legal backing
for a war against the West. It is why George Bush chose
the primitive sounding, but American-Understanding "war on
terror." One thing is certain, our AG has emboldened al kaeda
and certainly put them in a good mood. Furthermore, it is
clear that if we set this precedent, then we encourage these
soldiers of Islam, in our foolish sanctimoniousness, to
continue to wage war against us. If we are to deal with
al kaeda as we would the mafia, as a criminal entity, then
our processes will not act out in a timely enough fashion
to protect our interests. I hereby call on the AG to resign
and the Obama administration to rescind its decision, and
if possible for President Obama to resign. It's how I feel.
It's how you will feel...shortly. There's a reason why
they call me 33.

Hannity on KSM
Sir:
A while back a black man, himself of the cloth, sued
a Korean dry cleaner for false advertising. The Korean,
apparently, could not deliver on his promise of satisfaction
as a guarantee. The suit was for millions of dollars. While
many saw it as frivolous, observers of America's jurisprudence
recognized it as a signal that American jurisprudence was on
trial. It was a powerful symbol, and though the Korean
dry cleaner was not asked, in the end, to pay millions of
dollars for inadequate dry cleaning, Americans took note.
The decision to try KSM in civilian court is ABOUT the application
of standards of justice. I am surprised, being from Africa,
how much more I seem to appreciate about the KSM case than
Americans who have lived America since birth. I guess I'm
a natural. It impossible, in the KSM case, for civilian
standards of justice to be applied "after the fact," causing
me to question whether our attorney general willfully intends
to corrupt American jurisprudence in some Masonic push
that sees white people and their system of things as being
"the enemy." A shocking suggestion, but how else can
any rational and intelligent adult view this... obnoxious
decision by the A.G? This will blow up into something
quite ridiculous if, in fact, civilian standards of
justice are here prevaricated for political reasons,
corrupting, as I said, the system thoroughly.
Secondly, I wish someone would ask the AG, once more,
what the M.O. should be if Osama Bin Laden is captured.
His response that "it would depend" is ambiguous and,
quite frankly, stalls any movement in the direction of
Bin Laden. I wish to suggest, then, that the AG may
be acting out in interests that do not represent "we
the people of the United States." I am now undecidedly
suspicious, as I was during the campaign, of the
powers behind this administration and its leader.

Wade's Symbolism
Sir, with this statue you make an argument.
"You are evidence that Africa has gods"
"Touche. But what is our religion?"
"Oma [w]a ti"
"I see. Please answer one question then, since it is my expertize"
"Shall it weigh on my mind or my heart?"
"If you are good it shall weigh on your heart"
"What is the question?"
"Physically, is the weight of the soul of a god heavier than the soul of
a mortal?"

The Truth
Elder Gaul there is a fundamental flaw in your argument.
"How so?"
"Essentially your argument is that the truth is too complex
to phrase in simple sentences."
"Why, but this is so..."
"Then consider."
Our shared commonality defines the bounds of humanity.
Humanity's extension is physical pain. In foundational
moments, choices made by representatives of our contextual
history determine the fate of all mankind. Each individual,
at birth, is gifted with a culture and from this culture
the highest extractable utility is its cosmogony. In our
contextual history, you say to your son, we believe that
God is either named YAH-WEY or AIYE. There is reason
to believe that OLODUMARE represents the allegory of
God to the extent that Israel had a King, Uzziah,
who was Yoruba. And so on and so forth... You
are by now boring me Elder.
"But you're so much fun to talk to.
"And yet, I am busy..."
"Writing what, another Revelation?"
It was a previous Jesus...

Wolf Blitzer's Interviews
Speaking with Representative Lee (D) California,
Wolf Blitzer asked a question pertaining to the
war in Afghanistan. He asked if she was disappointed
in President Obama's decision to send thirty thousand
more troops in addition to the sixty eight. She said
that most people agree, as I do, that there is no
true "military" solution to Afghanistan. She then
said she would like to see, subsequently, more attention
paid to troop redeployment and pursuing diplomatic
avenues. Did Wolf Blitzer, like a classical American
journalist, interject and counter point that the argument
is made that diplomacy needs teeth, and that, in fact,
sending thirty thousand more troops SIGNALS that America
is ready for a realistic peace? No he did not. He
jumped to healthcare, leaving me to wonder if CNN
was fair and balanced. How much balance is needed
to stay center?

Peace and Unity
Segun:
For the first time in recent African history, the sons have
not turned against the fathers. You have me to thank for that.
But you fail to realize that the fathers are just as corrupt as
has been the case in the past. If you expect a father-son relationship
to continue as normal, then you do not see the point. I have
decided, as a representative of my generation, to follow the advice
of an American Elder who says that Africa's problem is of father's
and sons, after all why are there African sons in America sold
into slavery? No, Segun, the fathers remain corrupt. So, as
a gesture of peace, we the younger generation are granting our
elders a finite amount of time to again gain our respect and
be seen to be wise adults. Alas, from what I have seen your pride,
shame and inability to be truthful is getting in the way. One day
soon, should this continue, then the sons shall turn against the
fathers.. and Nigeria shall be at war into perpetuity. I guarantee
this. I am .. humbled to have dialog with so many "big" people
in our country's space. But Sanusi is not my father. And Dora
is not my mother. And Amesimaka is not my elder brother. These
people will have me as nothing more than a houseboy if the fathers
who have wronged their sons, like you wronged Gbenga, continue
to hide behind their actions. We are ashamed of you, Segun, as
previous African sons have been ashamed of the fathers who continue
to devalue human life. We are very ashamed of you Segun. And your peers.
Now it is time to make us proud. But time is running short, sir, I must
warn you. And the day of Nigeria's judgment, Segun, is at hand. Please
take note. The games you continue to play from Abuja shall not secure
us any intellectual superiority and to the extent that football as a
metaphor is demonstrative of Nigerian intelligence, should our fathers
continue to act... like children, children sir, then I predict a
cataclysmic failure of Nigeria within two years. And if you think
you can escape judgment, then I shall point you in the direction of
the future and ask what you see. When you ask where the fire comes
from, try to imagine that it was not your sons who burned down your
house. Believe, sir, that it was the righteous anger of the Children,
Segun, of the Almighty God.

Elder Gaul: The Quickening
Sir:
You will be a most cherished witness on the Great and Terrible day of judgment. For now, please see the following verses and respond.
I Corinthians
[35] But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
[36] Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:
What is meant, here, by "quickened"?
If not...
Eph.2
[1] And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
[2] Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
[3] Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
[4] But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
[5] Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
[6] And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
THEREFORE
DEATH, in Christianity is associated with the soul, for man can kill the body, but only God can destroy the soul. That dichotomy begins when thsoe who were "dead in trespasses and sins" (which RESULT in death and hell, these cast in Revelation into the lake of fire) are quickened.
SO
The death and resurrection of Christ MUST be viewed in the same foundational context. However Christ's physical death occurred, he died first to sin and was raised in righteousness allowing others to follow suit.
The following verse seems clear to me that we CAN take the crucifixion metaphorically..
what do you think?
[9] For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
[10] And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
[11] In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
[12] Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
[13] And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
[14] Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
[15] And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
[16] Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
AND
1 Peter 3
[18] For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
[19] By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
In other words, Elder Gaul, Christian "death" occurs BEFORE physical death, as does Christian resurrection. It is evidence, proof if you will, of the redemption of the soul and not its destruction.

A Central Bank Administration Application
Sanu Sir:
I've finished the design. In all honesty, I am not
sure that it is effectively used in Nigeria due
to a lack of manufacturing base. The analysis might
be futile. Nonetheless, it is finished in design
form. At my earlier convenience I'll begin
to put it to asp.net and we'll see, within a year or
so, the power of an econometric "coupling" model
with adjectival definition: i.e. YOU decide the
thresholds for "rich consumer" etc and then
what the government is REQUIRED to do to facilitate
expedient coupling will be apparent. A donation

The Solution
Eph.2
[1] And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
[2] Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
[3] Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
[4] But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
[5] Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
[6] And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
[7] That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
[8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
[9] Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Notice that remission or "redemption" as used in...
Eph.1
[7] In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
involves NOT "walking according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now walketh in the children of disobedience."
Translating this concept into Judaism, how does this suggest that Jews
were to be affected by the acts of ritual sacrifice, and how did which Jews historically learn to respond to these acts of sacrifice?

Christian Judgment
Elder Gaul:
[27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
AND
[22] And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
Sir, WHY is there no remission without shedding of blood?
Since judgment comes AFTER death, the shedding of human blood
is especially to be studied. Christians believe that Jesus'
blood was actually shed like that of a sacrificial lamb. So
whether it is lamb's blood or human blood, it seems to work
for the "remission [of sins]." Why? Why do both human
and lamb's blood work for remission, and is this related
to the Powerful Almighty God and his Mosaic counterpart "I AM"?

The TODO List
You ask, in what way is there left to overcome?
1. A Negro Race that abhors anything short of excellence. Especially mediocrity.
2. A Negro Race that overwhelmingly defends the rights of the unborn. If you don't want to have the child, be disciplined enough to not have the sex. Slavery comes in many forms. Think of sex as sugar and adults as children.
3. A Negro Race that follows the commandments of the Christ in a manner devoid of the pain of slavery.
4. A Negro Race which abhors single parent homes.
5. A Negro Race where AIDS and STDs are not pestilent.
..
and so on and so forth...

Have We Overcome?
I found myself, this morning, humming then singing
that profound Negro spiritual, We Shall Overcome.
As I sang I unexpectedly found myself tearful as I
recalled my consciousness, seared with images of
beatdowns and "I am a man" and water hoses and
German Guard Dogs. Segregation. Colonialism. And
now, a black president. But... suddenly I stopped
being tearful. And I was singing again, but this
time I meant it. For I realized that though YOU
have overcome, I have not. My change, that I can
believe in, has yet to happen.
We shall overcome
We shall overcome
We shall overcome someday...
Deep in my heart, I do believe

North Korea
In President Kim Jung Il we have a man whose
Father accorded to himself the prospect of
immortality, by attending to every aspect of power.
He was total in what he learned, then believed,
then set out to create. A human in his image.
He rests today, awaiting the day of judgment.
His son, today's Great Leader has a more uncertain
future. Does he have what it takes to walk in
his father's footsteps, or is judgment for
this mortal just a dream? The current wager
insists that North Korea must represent
some ... beast, some monster, in the book
of the Revelation. But for as long as the
United States pays lip service to truly
caring about human rights, the vestiges
of immortality that exist through enslavement
shall rest with the Great Leader awaiting
the day, too, of judgment.
Father accorded to himself the prospect of
immortality, by attending to every aspect of power.
He was total in what he learned, then believed,
then set out to create. A human in his image.
He rests today, awaiting the day of judgment.
His son, today's Great Leader has a more uncertain
future. Does he have what it takes to walk in
his father's footsteps, or is judgment for
this mortal just a dream? The current wager
insists that North Korea must represent
some ... beast, some monster, in the book
of the Revelation. But for as long as the
United States pays lip service to truly
caring about human rights, the vestiges
of immortality that exist through enslavement
shall rest with the Great Leader awaiting
the day, too, of judgment.
Ify
Ify was thin. And her skin was unusually brown.
Like deep chocolate. And she was liked by her friends
because she was funny. She and Benaba were sent to
me, after the Trenchard Hall show, to "calm me down"
they said. I didn't understand what they meant, and
they were laughing so I laughed too. And calmed down.
They were calming voices in my ear since I had exploded
like a Supernova in the sky. Why, after that performance
I couldn't take five paces without hearing my name in the
air. It was surreal. So Ify and Benaba were very welcome
'awon girlz' in my space. One day I was walking by the
Faculty of Arts towards SUB, again, late into the evening
when I spotted Ify entering into a dark Peugeot. Peugeots
are NEVER black in Nigeria, unless they belonged to some
government official. It was later confirmed that Ify,
aside from being Gbenguze's special side-side, was as well
dating some man in the hierarchy of governance. Of course
when Gbenguze was told this, he lost his cool. He never
loses his cool, and so when he lost his cool, the fighting
escalated all the way to Maryland, where Ify's cousin,
Arogunlade worked. There, Gbenguze's friends came storming
into the city to tell all who would believe, that Arogunlade
was a harlot.
Today Ify lives a quiet live in East Europe. A friend
even took a picture of her the other day and posted it
on Facebook. As for Gbenguze? So far as I have heard,
the war has not ended, for it is in all the papers today
that Ify is a harlot. Maybe it will end with this article.
After all, Shege, it began with me. The day after "that
Trenchard Hall Performance..."
National Theather, Eko
"...abe igi.. orombo..."

The Leader's Secret Wife
Gbenguze was the leader of the... club. I suppose
it is what you would call those pseudo-gangs that
seemed to mimic the mafia that UI was replete with
in those days. Gbenguze was a military brat and
was one of the high ranking awon boyz. In fact, to
be certain, it didn't get higher than him.
One day Gbenguze and Stefano, a scary looking but
Urhobo fellow, approached me and offered me some medicinal
herb in appreciation for playing "Mountain Dance" at the
Trenchard Hall and thus "toppling" the reigning piano
Maestro, Geraldo Pino's keyboardist... who now risked a
physical beating, they said, if he would dare come to UI
again and play mountain dance. The pressure was on, for
now these commanders of violence relied on my piano skills
to maintain their status as the boys to be. So I practiced,
not out of fear, but pressure. I didn't think they were to be
feared: Saffon, KK, Gbenguze, Big J, Stefano.
But so many others feared
them I began to wonder if, eventually, I ought fear them too.
One day Gbenguze approached me, but this time alone. He had seen
me with Nwanne and wanted to know about her friend, Ify. It is
how this story starts. How it ends, as
predicted by the god who introduced
Ify to Gbenguze, is today's biggest news. How could he tell, that long
ago, that today the love story between Gbenguze and Ify would
have become the most important story in Nigerian history. But then,
he was one of those... the alawada's... from National Theater. EKO
(not Lagos. Lagos is a Portuguese slave port.)

the nature of slavery
Many people do not know, and most Nigerians tend
to forget, that Nigeria used to be known as the
"Slave Coast." While Ghana was known for its gold,
the land now known as Nigeria was a haven for
slaves, this due to war and an enabling climate
for slave raids and trade in prisoners of war.
Ostensibly to finance more war. It is appropriate
to delineate the relevant parties in the slave
trade by the bipolar distinction of victim-practitioner,
since, where judgment is being held--the United States
of America--color seems irrelevant as concerns
the tenor of those responsible for selling the ancestors
of Diana Ross into slavery. In the African Nationalist
movement we were informed that, in fact, slavery
could not have existed without the demand for
slaves in the plantations of the New World, and this
is true. But why did the supply HAVE to come from
Nigeria?
Today we have a US President who is black, but whose
parents were not the descendants of slaves. Kenya,
his ancestral home, is not immune to slavery, but it
is a history of islamic slavery. In his parts,
the influence of the East is overpowering and
the inferiority complex just as in West Africa.
And so, there was a supply of slaves, too, from
East Africa, but in the other direction. Why
did the supply HAVE to come from Kenya.
If the black US President DID have slave ancestors,
would his behavior be any different? I contest that
it would be more dignified, more of the mountaintop
that Mr. King envisioned, not the erratic charlatanry
of a man whose wisdom is not rooted in the density of
the wisdom of God. Where is his wisdom from?
It is wise to take a good look at Kenya and Nigeria and
it is wise to understand the nature of these societies.
If you bury your head in the sand like an ostrich, you
will be ignoring the key traits you need to search for
when a man dawns into his primordial soul in order to find
a solution. It is wise to understand the nature of the
black man who would and can enslave his son, brother or friend,
...and always, it seems... as in the Slave Coast of West
Africa...

Nigeria
I must be very frank, despite the habit of my people.
This is to say, my people often fight very hard that
I might not be frank or very frank. The prognosis is dire.
The level of intelligence at the National Theater SHALL
sink Nigeria. I recuse myself.

Gameplan Afghanistan
Missing in the post-speech analyses is the realization
that the withdrawal date and the fact that US Marines
are touted to land first makes the period before it
Mr. Obama's controversial "Overseas Contingency Operation."
The wording implies that the strategic objectives are:
1. Expand the reach of the central government in Kabul
by replicating the presence of Kabul in a contiguous
zone stemming from Kabul. Nowhere, of course, more
important symbolically than Highway 1 between Kabul
and Kandahar.
2. Shift momentum to pro-government forces
3. Take advantage of the shift in momentum with non-nation-building,
yet transformational, infrastructure.
4. And the civilian political stuff...
There are other implications of an OCO, the most important
I didn't mention: A posture which indicates an endgame
in the previous War on Terror. The argument is clear,
even a hundred thousand more troops would have to be there
till "time indefinite" and so this surge meant as a buffer
to the more important political processes that will determine
Afghan sovereignty going forward. MTC

On Biafra
Soccer is obviously Nigeria's most sacred metaphor.
Members of the group, MASSOB, were arrested somewhat
recently, playing a soccer match "for the liberation of
Biafra." Without much due process or any applicably
modern standards of justice they were and remain
incarcerated. For playing a soccer match. Treasonable.
Biafra failed the first time because of the Midwest.
Our uncle Ejoor and his famous bicycle might in fact
have been what did Biafra in, more than Adekunle and
Obasanjo. In this episode, however, the midwest
is confederate with the east primarily because the
Yorubas do not share common cause with the Mid westerners
whose cousins in the Delta are resource rich. The Yoruba
have nothing to fight for, since they did not fight for
their Aare, and so seem... unfocused and without leadership.
As such, they now will grow at their own pace, since the
old Midwest is allied with the East in this episode.
Sharia in the North indicates a level of autonomy for
the Northern Nigerians. The Igbo Biafrans have every
right to ask for increasing levels of self-determination
if the Federal Government continues to be unable to
do for the Easterners what they claim they can do for
themselves: Provide electricity, water, sanitation and
basic security. If, in fact, it is true--that the Federal
Government cannot provide ANY constituency in the country
these basics, and that these constituencies can do so
for themselves, then we ought to begin discussing, quite
seriously, the concept of power devolution and how it
can be attained without changing, in a major way, the
constituent structure of the nation. My opinion, based
on the finest and most precise analysis I've done, suggests
that the Federal Government of Nigeria, AS CURRENTLY
CONSTITUTED, will NEVER be able to provide these basics
to all its people and probably never "most." Thus,
the agitation will continue into time indefinite unless
the leaders of our nation decide to grant states more
autonomy, and do this without threatening the unity of
the nation by threatening to reduce access to resources
or funds derived from thereof. It would be wiser for
MASSOB to engage the international human rights community
than to believe that force can work. But, more importantly,
the conversation is now between Biafra and Nigeria, and that
conversation ought to end not in disunity, but with more
control available to Biafrans, and thus all Nigerias, as
regards what the Federal Government CONTINUES to be unable
to do. It's job.

The Problem with Keynesian Economics
It is... unrealistic to expect private industry to
completely account for economic growth without at least
some supporting policies from the public sector. These
are most efficiently done through a central bank and
finance policy, but a major component of non-supply-side
economics is the creation of artificial demand through
government intervention or spending. Public works.
That sort of thing. The argument against generating
artificial demand is that the natural market cannot
compensate naturally for the sudden spikes, and recursively
the inability to take advantage of a spike in demand,
because it was not predicted by regular models and their
implicational policies will lead, eventually.. .and logically..
to a deficit (which ostensibly the government will guarantee).
In the end, the government owes more than it spends, because
the market is tuned to natural motion. I advocate very limited
intrusions, and as Huffington said, what we are practicing
today is in every sense socialist democracy. We had no choice,
so the option is clear: As she said, if the entity is too big
to fail, then it is too big to exist. I think the US is going
to be in for a long period of economic uncertainty, because
of the lack of a principled application of the laws of economics
by this administration, following the unprecedented intervention
43 was forced to make after Lehman. MTC

The Coming "Limited" Attack on Iranian Facilities
It has been the game played to use politics
to its finest extent, pressuring Israel to
forget that it continues to have a right to
its sovereign self defense. The policy,
evidently, of the State of Iran is to genocide
Israel out of existence. As much has been
said by the nation's president. However irresponsible
I could have believed such a stance was before
9-11, after seeing that Islamist soldiers are willing
in fact to destroy Israel, then the evidence begins
to pile up against Iran. It is not a question of
whether we TRULY believe that Iran will use nuclear
weapons against Israel. The question, instead, is
of whether the Iranian leadership will, NOW, as they
wish to join the nuclear club, begin speaking in a more
reasonable fashion. There are no indications, judging
from the childish foolish statements of Dr. 'Jad, that
this is the case or shall be anytime soon. In fact,
to the contrary, Iran is building ten more enrichment
facilities in defiance of an increasingly impotent
international community. THEREFORE, no matter what
the politics says--a la Gaza Goldstone--I think we
ought to be clear that "...to prevent the possibility
of Genocide and a repeat of the era of Holcaust..."
the State of Israel shall attack, in a limited fashion,
facilities and locations deemed central to Iran's ABILITY
to wage inordinate war and genocide on its people. My
immediate analysis is that these attacks will last over
five days and though it will not entirely cripple
Iran's nuclear ambitions, it shall set them back ten years.
The hue and cry over the civilian deaths is to be minimized
by accurate intelligence and precision. I don't expect
civilian deaths to be plentiful. I do expect, however,
the destruction of Iran's ability to wage a war of genocide
against Israel without provocation to be near-complete:
for the aftermath shall yield a new reality. Middle
East peace then would have seemed a far-off dream, but
thankfully, today, the Vatican has an argument because
of which we now believe that there is a logical solution
to the matter of Israel and Balfour.

Gameplan Iraq
The final phase of our engagement has begun, and so
we are TRULY winding down our combat operations and
pseudo-occupation. The cost has been great, but
BECAUSE it was the people of Iraq themselves who
brought Saddam to justice, then it is true that it
was a war of liberation. I certainly did not expect
him to get hung, and said as much--perhaps too loudly--
during the negotiations to "capture" him. Maybe he
believed he'd be in the Hague next to Milosevich. That's
what I believed. But then the people of Iraq tried him
and hung him, in a trial Ramsey Clarke says was unfair.
But then Clarke was applying American Sovereign STANDARDS
of justice. This was an internal matter, and it is clear
that IF the people of Iraq were WHO brought Saddam to justice,
and IF the people of Iraq were WHO fought off al kaeda, then
it WAS a war of liberation. Of course, with the numbers of
innocent killed, we truly should never have expected people
to come running out of their houses with roses. Not after
shock and awe. But they did show that we were welcome, eventually,
not to stay, but to provide the support and backing because of
which the name "Anbar" shall forever be synonymous with the ABILITY
to defeat islamic terrorism. That's a major psychological boost
and a great victory for America's aspirations in the region. It is
a long term parternship, and we expect that as al kaeda remains resilient,
so also shall the Iraqi's remain... free. Going forward, sustaining
peace and stability in Iraq will have to do with what we are discussing
below. Oil revenues and corruption:

The Counter Argument
...is that, in fact, allowing the government to
incipiently set prices will ALLOW business in
that field to compete, as the government implicitly
"regulates" the industry response to the market.
Senator, this is a very dangerous precedent you are
about to set in the United States, a country I have
evangelized as being the beacon of freedom. You should
know that freedom includes freedom from government
intrusion. If more people like the public option,
either it signals a sea-change in American attitudes
towards the more Swedish-like "Social Democracy," or
your colleagues have not found the time to engage the
people and, LOGICALLY, enumerate the dangers inherent
in government intrusion into the free market--even
in the sacred health industry. Since "lipstick on a pig"
I've been convinced that President Obama, our leader,
has few qualms about manipulating the people who adore him.
I explained to a lady yesterday that if she, like me, had
stumbled upon Sarah Palin during her speech at the RNC
Convention, one would have been hard-pressed to feign
unexcitement. She is a very exciting politician. But
then, the judgment Obama displayed in his choice of words
demonstrated to me that he is willing to lead people astray,
"for the greater good." He is a sanctimonious leader who
feels that we are looking out for the interests of our children
when we interrupt the free market in order to "sanitize" it.
Senator, if the Public Option passes in the bill, then I am sorry
to say that you have failed. You have failed your favorite staffer,
your colleagues, your peers... and, Senator, your country. I
remain quiet for now but have more to say on this topic.

Senator:
Your integrity is admired, as well as the sense of
urgency displayed, at least as regards this very
important portion of the bill. WHEN, assuming
your colleagues on the left have their way,
the government BEGINS running the government-sponsored
option, it will have little choice but to, once again,
disrupt the free market by setting its own prices, ostensibly
relative to prevailing market prices. After which it shall
ignore the market. Sir, some of my friends, Freemasons
and High Thinkers, are certain that over twenty years
they will have enough concerned citizens as witnesses.
If, over the next few administrations after the incipience
of a government sponsored option there is a palpable decrease
in the quality of care as well as the options for its provision
(as a function of business unable to compete with government
prices in any truly realistic or meaningful sense), please sir
have it on record that these gentlemen have no qualms about
attributing the failure of commonsense to a black man, and thus
the black man and those who voted him in, to appease some latent
sense of racial justice, over the power of principle which stands
for all people. I, for one, realize that there WILL
always have been a black president at some point. I would have
hoped, however, that he displayed more maturity than our current
leader, whose behavior is increasingly erratic, a penchant for
"game-changing" surprises that surprise no one on my team, but
instead, as we see with the KSM decision, bolsters my credibility
"as concerns" much of what concerned me about Obama DURING the
campaign. We are treading, sir, on very delicate ground,
and that the US Senate is unable to debate this... trivial
matter in a logical manner so that the truth wins out is
a red flag. It seems the MO of this administration is to
create truth, not observe it. I stand in awe at the future,
being perhaps the only "brother" in the "struggle" who
openly decries the behavior and philosophy of the black man
who is currently privileged to represent our shared interests.
On the one hand, I am concerned for his success BECAUSE I am
black. But the balance on the other hand calls for a more
principled stand. Wouldn't it be nice, Senator, if your
staffers were able to come up with a logically hashed out
argument detailing, in obvious sequence, the very few possibilities
that might be the outcome of ignoring market prices, having
INITIALLY used those to set a pricing threshold.

Code Red
Sir:
Earlier this evening, after due consultations, I decided
that I was ready to do whatever is necessary to move on
with my life, after the disruption caused by your friend, Petra.
This is to say, the decision has been made to exercise
the authority granted me by my status and... severe...
my relationships with Petra and those who, like him, fail
to accept the responsibilities that come with disrupting
the life of a person. If it had happened to any other person,
why I can't imagine the severity with which those who love
him would act! For such disruptions are not normal, and while
because of who I am I can recover then thrive, let us not
believe there shall be no consequences for this disruption,
especially since it was done to place me in a position where
judging the Obasanjo regime would put me at great risk. The
disruption was done on behalf of the corrupt, for which we now
risk, sir, a major conflagration. Do you believe? I hope you do.
Clearly, since I have decided to leave Petra where he is, as well
as his family, then there seems no... impetus to not die, within,
as well, to the country that birthed and supports his sort. But
I will not do that, which is to say, die within to Nigeria. It
is what Jesus did to Israel and I am willing to do so, whatever
the cost to me, to teach us Africans the value... of value itself.
But I shall be patient. If Petra and any of his wards feel
that it is unacceptable, unkind or just plain wicked what I am
doing, then they know where they can meet me in argument. The
disruption must be handled in justice, otherwise I prophesy
a sad and withering last days for our fathers who have, so
badly, destroyed the nation. The amount of corruption in the
Obasanjo regime begins to make me wonder if I should not go
on and rethink my earlier judgment, which is that I did not
feel Mr. Obasanjo should face the law. BUT attempting to coerce
my judgment is the last thing a person ought to do, who does not
want to face the highness of a standard he has breached. I will
exercise restraint, for now, but please note that we are all now,
Alhaji, in Code Red. The next few events could do us... the disfavor
of disintegration.... and though you do not believe now, I promise
that you will.... then...

Decision #2
In the name of Shango (for whom I bear witness in character):
Father Munoz:
How is it possible that Oba Eradiauwa came to a conclusion, then
I, his son, after my own INDEPENDENT analysis, came to the
SAME conclusion? We must be right on something! As I said,
when the Oba first released his book and the uproar ensued
I found it... scary, to even imagine our Father, Oduduwa,
to be a thief, and even scarier to imagine the reaction
of our Yoruba kinsfolk. And yet, when I have done
the analysis, in my history, before and since the time
of the release of the book, the primal problems I have had
with Nigerian wards has been with those who are of Yoruba
stock. We speak of Enoma Ogunyemina, and Lanre Obisheole
and Luqman Ajonotti. And so on and so forth. Can it be
that one people would so uniformly, in matters of state
craft, offend a prince? Or is it not that, since they
also offended the King, then the King, Eradiauwa, and
the Prince, Suleiman Abubakar, MUST have some... legitimate
gripe with the people of Yorubaland? I will not change
my mind, sir, on leaving Yorubaland... and to the extent
that any reconciliation can occur over the rest of my
lifetime, I expect to be cautious but open to building
those bridges. Otherwise, I have to say that I NOW
agree, ENTIRELY, with Oba Eradiuawa's... disposition,
as a royal, towards the Nigerians wards of Yoruba
stock. Now, you KNOW that when Oba Eradiauwa first
came out with this statement, I was one of those who
took the side of the Ile Ife. Why would I sit idly
by when our father, Oduduwa, was insulted. And yet
miracle upon miracle, for the Oba at least, after
a requisite amount of time in judgment I cannot
say that I believe that the Yoruba, as currently
constituted, are succeeding. Indeed, after Obasanjo/Awolowo,
Shonekan, Obasanjo/Abiola and Bola Ige, it becomes clear that in
our rotational world, the Yoruba have FAILED
aggregationally to prove to Nigeria that they
with the culture to admire have the statecraft
to match. Where lies the salvation in Yoruba leadership?
Sola Adeyeye? Frederic Fasheun? Wole Soyinka?
So, yes, I must now say to the Oba
of Benin, he has an ally in Suleiman "as concerns"
the continued lack of moral apriority the exponents
of Yoruba culture continue to express. But is Osanobua
any better?
I have said what I have said above to ensure that
the Oba is aware that I take his side AGAINST
the Yoruba in this conversation, but then I don't
have to be buried in Ile Ife. I dare say, coming
from the Akarue-Okoro alliance, the family I represent
has been perhaps one of the ONLY true hopes for
federal unity, at least in our case, unity between
the Yoruba and Igbo. That now will NEVER occur, sir.
And it is a failure of the Yoruba that has caused it.
But for those who were willing minions of these
Yoruba wards, your fate is no better. Decision #2
has been made, that is aside from leaving Yorubaland
for good. And that decision is final, though of course
I look forward to building any bridges that may
remain. For now the decimation of the relationship
between this prince and the Yoruba is TOTAL and
shall remain so for the foreseeable future.
I will not make Decision #2 public, but I wanted
the Oba to know that despite the fact that I understand
WHY he would make the statements he made--in effect
I now stand in traditional law as a legal representative
of the office of the man--those of his own children who
have embodied the ways that I castigate shall, individually
face a judgment that is not to be wished upon others. Including
the one, sir, called Peter. And that's final.

Justice
A big announcement was made the other day
suggesting that I, Suleiman Abubakar, was
something of a Prince of the Ogboni. I do
not know anything about the Ogboni and do
not belong to any secret societies. I, however,
represent the Akarue Clan as an ambassador
to the peoples and estate of Zariah, the Bright
and Morning Star. Because I have left the
Yoruba, and because the agents were both
Yoruba and Urhobo because of which I left,
then justice would not be served if the Urhobo,
too, do not bear the weight of the consequences
of their actions. Though I will not here make
public the decisions made, those who believe
there would be imbalance if ONLY left the
Yoruba have nothing to fear. Upon the power
of the name given me.
