Founding

Introduction

The founding of The Alvan Ikoku Services has been at the behest and impetus solely of the Founder, Alvan Azinna Chibuzo Ikoku, and has proceeded as follows:

Founding History

Section 1.1.0. The Alvan Ikoku Services was established:

1.1.1. Founding Entity
in 2021 by its sole Founder, Member, Owner and CEO, Alvan Azinna Chibuzo Ikoku, as a division of The Alvan Ikoku Group LLC, itself similarly established in 2019.
1.1.2. Founding Entities
as part of ongoing work he has carried out for over three decades, leading also to his founding of The Ikoku Charitable Trusts, The Ikoku Foundations, The Ikoku University, Publiks Inc, and Humana Sancta.
1.1.3. Founding Fulfillments
with the understanding that, where appropriate and authorized solely by the Founder, these distinct and independent entities will endeavor to coordinate efforts toward the fulfillment of their respective missions and purposes.

Founding Concerns

Section 1.2.0. The Alvan Ikoku Services was also founded and developed in response to the concerns below:

1.2.1. Concern for Care
the Founder’s longstanding concern for issues pertaining to care.
1.2.2. Concern for Creativity
the Founder’s longstanding concern for practices, problems, and products of creativity.
1.2.3. Concern for Community
the Founder’s longstanding concern for communities, both local and global in nature.
1.2.4. Concern for Ethics
the Founder’s longstanding concern for issues pertaining to ethics.
1.2.5. Concern for Humanity
the Founder’s longstanding concern for the human and humane, and attendant concern regarding de- and subhumanizing conduct and resulting instances of inhuman and inhumane treatment, with the Founder’s insights from such concern proving valuable during several periods, preceding and during the formation of The Alvan Ikoku Services, where he was subject to inhumane conduct and treatment that entailed persistent, pervasive and profound violations of the confidentiality and privacy, freedom and liberty, independence and integrity, and, ultimately, sanctity of his being, body, and brain, as well as self, soul, and spirit.*

*for further, see Inhumane Conduct section below.

1.2.6. Concern for Indifference
the Founder’s longstanding concern for issues pertaining to difference, with the Founder’s insights from such concern proving valuable during the aforementioned periods of inhuman and inhumane conduct and treatment, with such insights elucidating that — as also experienced by others — such inhumane conduct and treatment depend upon and employ notions of human and perceived difference (including those pertaining to ability, birth, caste, citizenship, culture, ethnicity, gender, medical information, origin, race, religion, and sex) to elicit active and passive indifference as well as support for persistent, pervasive and profound violations of a person’s humanness.
1.2.7. Concern for Spirituality
the Founder’s longstanding concern for the spiritual nature of humans, with further insights from such concern emanating in response to the aforementioned periods, as well as past and present difficulties, even failures of prevailing forms of civics, commerce, education, law, politics, public discourse, and religion to provide a meaningful ethical and moral basis for a good life in contemporary society, one adequate for ensuring the basic human and humane coexistence as well as spiritual and theological equanimity of diverse human beings living in shared societies.
1.2.8. Concern for Vulnerability
the Founder’s longstanding concern for issues pertaining to lessening intractable problems and undue burdens experienced by vulnerable populations due to the aforementioned conduct and treatment, failures to prevent or remedy them, and the limits of processes that privilege majoritarian decision-making, interests, social structures, and views within a given community, institution, or polity.

‡ with the understanding that tyranny develops where private or public governance, often via misleadingly evoking ‘we the people,’ has become so arbitrary as to revert to acting as a government of peoples, not of laws (cf. John Adams, John Stuart Mill, Alexis de Tocqueville).

Intrinsic Refusals

Section 1.10.0. In light, therefore, of the aforementioned, incompatibility with The Alvan Ikoku Services entails the following basic refusals, each intrinsic to the basic humanity, humanness, and humaneness of each human being, including the Founder, and to the respect such humanity requires:

that The Alvan Ikoku Services and the Founder resolutely refuse to give any agreement, assent, authorization, consent, license, permission, or equivalent — or to waive any attendant decisions or rights — for any of the aforementioned inhumane conduct, in any way, via any manner, means, method, or mode, to any degree, under any circumstances, for any period, or for any perceived benefit, end, goal, good, interest, mission, need, objective, purpose, reason, or equivalent.
1.10.2. Basic Refusal, Inhumane Use, Utility
that The Alvan Ikoku Services and the Founder resolutely refuse to give any agreement, authorization, assent, consent, license, permission, or equivalent — or to waive any attendant decisions or rights — for any access or use of The Alvan Ikoku Services or Founder, or any of The Alvan Ikoku Services’s or the Founder’s activities, affairs, agents, arrangements, or assets, or being, body or brain, or self, soul, or spirit, or any equivalent, with the effect or intent of construing, employing or otherwise using the Founder — or any human being — instrumentally or utilitarianly, as a means or medium, for a greater good or to an end of another person or any association, community, field, group, polity, public, or society of persons, in any way, via any manner, means, method, or mode, to any degree, under any circumstances, for any period, or for any perceived benefit, end, goal, good, interest, mission, need, objective, purpose, reason, or equivalent.
1.10.3. Basic Refusal, Intrusive Access
that The Alvan Ikoku Services and the Founder resolutely refuse to give any agreement, assent, authorization, consent, license, permission, or equivalent — or to waive any attendant decisions or rights — for any access to, entry or intrusion into, or recording or transmission of the administration of The Alvan Ikoku Services or Founder, or any of The Alvan Ikoku Services’s or the Founder’s activities, affairs, agents, arrangements, assets, or any equivalent, in any way, via any manner, means, method, or mode, to any degree, under any circumstances, for any period, or for any perceived benefit, end, goal, good, interest, mission, need, objective, purpose, reason, or equivalent.
