Cheaters
Scheduled for release in February 2026

In Cheaters, Jo M. Sekimonyo once again takes readers on a powerful intellectual journey. This time, he unveils how the largest economies of the 21st century manipulate the global system to maintain and justify their dependence on what he calls Oxycotone—a striking metaphor for debt. This addiction, rooted at both state and individual levels, fuels an insatiable thirst for growth and a toxic comfort that has become the norm. The outcome is unmistakable: deepening inequality, widespread burnout, and ecological collapse. Meanwhile, the rest of the world continues to foot the bill—socially, economically, and environmentally.

But Cheaters is not limited to denunciation. Sekimonyo offers bold solutions. This is not a call for repentance, but an urgent invitation to reinvent.

The book introduces the concept of Ideacy, a radical rethinking of governance that challenges the current boundaries of democracy. It pushes us to reconsider our understanding of power, citizen participation, and possibility through modern communication tools such as e-government and digital civic infrastructure.

This is not just a critique. It is a call to overthrow the orthodoxy.
