COVID-19 IN NIGERIA: WE SAY NO TO CHINA INTERVENTION

Can the world ever trust China again? Would Nigeria romance with the prime suspect of the current global crisis (COVID-19)? How can we? In 2012 China handed over a fully funded and built headquarters building in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to the African Union (AU). A great gesture of friendship and solidarity, perhaps. But not long after, it was alleged to have been bugged, leaking vital, confidential information of the Union to China in faraway Shanghai! True or false, the Union had to change its computer servers to check the alleged mischief. But issues of health are different. Misfiring means losing a life, or even lives. On a national scale, that can amount to thousands. Painful loss. Avoidable loss. The authorities must tread with caution here. Face masks, test kits, ventilators, vaccine and doctors - all from or of China. Hmmmm, caution we must exercise. Until now we have been using our indigenous doctors, and they have been doing well. WHY CHANGE THE WINNING TEAM? Please let us DISCARD this idea of Chinese intervention. WE DON'T NEED IT. Let us stay safe Stay indigenous. Stay Nigerian We shall overcome

NFF To Decide On Keshi's Future On Tuesday.

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Technical and Development Committee will meet on Tuesday February 10 in Abuja to discuss issues relating to the future of the Super Eagles’ technical crew among others pertinent issues.
The Vice Chairman of the NFF’s Technical and Development Committee, Alhaji Ahmed Yusuf Fresh told Goal that the committee has a lot of issues to address but the most pressing of them is the fate of the senior national team handler.
 Yusuf hinted that the NFF does not want to join issues with anybody concerning the future of the technical crew headed by Stephen Keshi whose contract expired at the end of the 2014 Fifa World Cup Brazil.
 “We are going to be having a meeting of the technical committee on Tuesday on February 10 and many far reaching decisions will be taken regarding the future of the country’s football. We will talk about the contract renewal of Stephen Keshi and that of his assistants among other things,” Fresh told Goal .
 He also said the committee will take a cursory look at the issue and take a firm stand on it insisting that the body will not be intimidated to make hasty pronouncement which could put the future of the country’s senior national team in jeopardy.
