Paul Akpan Udoh Contracts Coronavirus - First Footballer To Be Infected by Maniagist: 4:38pm On Feb 28, 2020
King Paul Akpan Udoh, Italian-Nigerian player, has become the first footballer to be infected with coronavirus .

King Paul currently plies his trade with Pianese, an Italian Serie C side.

The Pianese forward was diagnosed of the disease on February 27, and he has been quarantined.

The 22-year-old started his career with Reggiana before moving to Juventus in 2011 where he was loaned back for a year.

After progressing through the youth ranks of Juventus, Udoh secured a loan move to Virtus Lanciano, a Serie B side in 2016 with an option to buy at the end of the season.

Failing to impress, he was returned to Juve, and then loaned to Lega Pro side Pontedera later the same year.

He had a loan stint with Pontedera, Fernana, Fano and Viareggio before joining Pianese on July 14, 2019.

Coronavirus has spread from China to countries in Europe, the Middle East, the Americas and Africa.

Italy is the country in Europe with the highest number of reported cases. Some Italian Serie A matches were postponed last weekend as a preventive measure against the spread of the virus.

On Friday, the Lagos state government and the federal ministry of health confirmed the
first case of coronavirus in Nigeria. The index patient is an Italian who arrived in the country on February 25.

If this news is true, then it is done.

I can remember the movie titanic, when the water was closing on the guitarists, one of them said to the others,"it has been a pleasure knowing you all"

That was the end. Their skills ended, everything they know, and their instruments.


Let us now see how the fittest survive.

President,governors, senators, lawmakers, judges, lawyers, ministers, the forces, house of reps, local gov'ts chairmen, citizens of Nigeria.


If only the travel ban had been signed and action taken, there wouldn't have been any case.

All thanks to that senator that was against the ban. Hope he has now seen how incompetence can be.


Get a face mask, gloves and stay healthy. Don't panic, even in Wuhan, there are still many people without the disease.

So our opa eyin, fona gau, alomo bitters, jedi jedi, afator mixture cannot combat this Corona virus.

Churches and mosques are areas of huge interests where people can easily be infected.

Did it have to be a Nigerian to be the first player? Who wrote the script sef?

Nigeria wey no dey carry anything, we carry first for Corona virus first player.

Everyone reading this, start amending your ways.
Call those you offended and those who offended you and make rights.

Write your wills
Pray for forgiveness of sins
Visit your love ones you've not seen in a while....


Terrible days are coming, this is not Ebola... this shît is airborne and Lagos is its landing place.

If as technologically and medically advanced is China, you can imagine the death rate. China is not a religious country, there are no church weekly Crusades, they're aren't waiting for miracle waters, they're aren't taking the infected ones to church....

Imagine what is coming to Nigeria, terrible days are coming.... God help us all.

Baba God I know I've not been your favorite child, but I know sey this year is not my end.

I have a friend who has been saying everyone will died in year 2020 since 2015, baba God hope this is not it... help us all.

I trust Indian doctors to finding a cure to that virus.

Every country has it. Before it was made known, 3 months had gone.

It now depends on the environment, ecosystem, weather and immune system.

Highly infectious disease, but not as deadly as it seems...that's what I like to think about this virus. The fact that it's infectious will definitely spread the kind of panic we are seeing right now.

Italy again! Let’s try to ban flights from Italy and China at this point. Any country suffering from this virus and letting their citizens run all over the world should be banned.
