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

Newcastle end Chelsea’s unbeaten run


Newcastle's Cisse condemned Jose Mourinho's side to their first defeat of the campaign. Newcastle had to see out 10 minutes of normal and six minutes of stoppage time with 10 men after Steven Tayor collected a second yellow card for a late challenge on visiting substitute Andre Schurrle.
Chelsea sub Didier Drogba had headed home on 83 minutes to give his side hope of rescuing a point, but Newcastle held on for a famous win that denied Chelsea the chance to move nine points clear at the summit. Newcastle also had to complete the job with their third goalkeeper Jak Alnwick, who made his full debut at half-time after an injury to Rob Elliot. But like so many men in black and white, '


Alnwick was in inspired form for his team as Newcastle held on to end Chelsea's record-equalling 23-game unbeaten run. Manchester City can close the gap to only three points at the top if they complete a home win over Everton later in the afternoon.
