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

Ahmed Musa appointed Assistant Captain of the Super Eagles

Coach Samson Siasia has named former Super Eagles skipper Ahmed Musa as assistant to new captain Mikel Obi after commending the gesture of the CSKA Moscow forward for surrendering the captaincy to the Chelsea midfielder.
CSKA Moscow Ahmed Musa on Thursday gave up the Eagles arms’ band to Mikel, saying seniority was not followed when he was named Nigeria skipper last year by former coach Sunday Oliseh.Interim coach Siasia said Ahmed Musa’s courage has earned him respect and he announced him as assistant to Mikel.

“Ahmed (Musa) is a great player and has captained the Super Eagles for a while. So, it takes a good man and a great professional to do what Ahmed Musa has done today, he has earned my respect for doing that,” said Siasia.

“He is the assistant captain henceforth.”
