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

Nigerian foward, Michael Olaitan wins Greek title with Olympiacos


Nigerian foward, Michael Olaitan collected his first Greek championship medal with Olympiacos on Saturday as Thrylos wrapped up the title with five games to spare.
Olympiacos defeated Panthrakikos 2-0 at Stadio Georgios Karaiskáki after goals from Nelson Valdéz and David Fuster sealed the win on a memorable night.

Olaitan was not listed in the game but his efforts earlier in the season and contribution to the cause will be greatly appreciated by the club’s supporters, his teammates and manager, Jose “Michel” Campo.

The 25-year-old scored eight goals in 16 league appearances for the club until he was involved in a scary incident that saw him sidelined from action.

On March 2, Olaitan collapsed unchallenged during Olympiacos’ game against bitter rivals, Panathinaikos at the Stadio Georgios Karaiskáki.

The midfielder fell to the ground unchallenged during the first half and received medical attention before he was carried off on a stretcher.

The 21-year-old, who was conscious as he left the pitch, was immediately taken to a nearby hospital for tests.

The club have since announced that Olaitan is no longer in danger but the Nigerian is yet to be integrated back into the first team.
