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

Demba Ba joins Turkish giants Bekistas

Demba Ba has completed a transfer from Chelsea to Turkish giants Besiktas for a reported fee of £4.7m after passing a medical this morning in Istanbul.
The Senegalese forward leaves following a season-and-a-half spell with the Blues,
having moved to Stamford Bridge from Newcastle United in January 2013.

The 29-year old fell further down the pecking order following the arrival of Diego Costa from Atletico Madrid. Ba was used predominantly as an impact substitute during the first few months of 2014, including in the 1-0 win at Manchester City, Ba came off the bench to score a brace in our 4-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur.
A statement on Chelsea’s website read: “Everybody at Chelsea Football Club would like to thank Demba for his service and wish him all the best for the future.”
