USA Africa Dialogue Series - That was the week, that was ( Week 36, 2025)

For those who are not easily impressed and those who don't want to be impressed but know that they have no choice but to be impressed because even Uncle Sam is impressed by this show of Chinese genius flexing & showcasing some military muscle ( bearing in mind that as usual the UK is the brain and in this era of world turbulence, with the USA under an aspiring autocrat like Donald J, the USA continues to be the muscle, so just looka here at what their top military brass have also been viewing :


China : Full Military Parade 2025


More details about that wondrous military parade and the awesome weapons on display 


President Donald J Trump who is said to have special love & admiration for strong men,

sent the following Message to his Great rival, China's President Xi Jinping 👍


"Please give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin, and Kim Jong Un, as you conspire against The United States of America"


Of course if Hamas had acquired those kind of weapons last night

by this morning Trump would have completely abandoned his plans 

for erecting a few Trump Towers in his New Riviera Playground in Gaza and instead would have been begging for an unconditional ceasefire and the Peace Deal of the Century or would find himself facing threats of very unpleasant 

consequences: Facing Phase 2 of Somebody Blew Up America 


That's what Bobby Dylan meant where he crowed


"Democracy don't rule the world

You better get that in your head

This world is ruled by violence

But I guess that's better left unsaid"


Some of the Hawks in America must have been thrilled

when Nobel Peace Prize Aspirant Donald J.Trump announced

that it was time for the Pentagon to receive a baptism of fire 

that according to USA's Commander-in-Chief, facilities should be 

called  by their proper names, and henceforth the Pentagon is to

be renamed "The Department of War" thereby trying to scare the

excrement out of the Mullahs in Iran….


As Curtis told the nation (singing about Richard Milhous Nixon


"But they don't know 

there can be no show

and if there's a hell below

We're all going to go….


Meanwhile, here's the latest juicy piece of kalabule news from Ghana 


Ghana's President sacks Ghana's Chief Justice because of alleged corruption


( You can of course imagine the kind of fallout if our own JAGABAN were to fire Naija's CJ  -then there would probably be "hell " topay


And here's what

the anti-kalabule poet 

who is himself corrupt 

would be heard barking :

"This is the kind of shit 

that happens 

when you appoint the Mafia 

to investigate the police & military  "


But we can all take a deep breath and relax

knowing that 

This could not possibly be about Nigeria 


And if it should ever come to that , well here's some sane advice culled from the latest missive posted on " Our Unfinished Work " ,some  general guidelines / "Rules for Escaping the Abyss":


"This pit isn't bottomless, though sometimes it seems so.

Any time you fall into an abyss, you will wonder whether it is or isn't bottomless. Abysses have an earned bad reputation. You don't want to think that extrication or escape is impossible."

Anti-climax : "Madam," I warned,

"I hate a wasted journey--I am African."

Silence. Silenced transmission of

Pressurized good-breeding….
