puh-leeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeeeeee
didn't the man want to fly abroad or why did he stay at asia when the guys lost to the brazilians b4 the world cup?
I simply don't understand some peeps.
It seems POLITICAL SCIENCE or CITIZEN AND STATE or whatever it was called should be introduced to all levels of
education in Niaja!Atiku had one tiny injury that ordinary RObb could treat, why didn't he go to LUTH instead?

Your shouting is not necessary mustay.
Even if he 'wanted' to go abroad, you need to realise that simply doing that is no guarantee on his life.
I am not claiming to know every single thing that went on in the process, but his health deteriorated and he was given excellent care as he could be given at LUTH because he was too frail to be taken abroad.
His illness was terminal, there was no assurance that going abroad would save him, please try to understand that.
I know it is emotionally painful, but try to reason a bit as well.

Maybe if we spent more time using N628m to renovate our hospitals instead of new houses we wont need to be flying everyone out as soon as they are bitten by a mosquito.

Yesterday in South Africa, a leading world musician was shot dead right in front of two of his children - noone in South Africa is blaming their government for that - noone in SA is blaming government for the high crime rate in their country - even if they think the government is not doing enough - they dont go singing it like we do in Nigeria - we sing loud every bad thin and blame it on government - how do you expect other countries to respect us or even write or think good about us?

His illness didn't just start after the world cup. The NFA has been in the know all these while. Maybe he would have died anyway, but why didn't we give him the best treatment he deserved?
There's another falcons' player who has been injured while playing for her country since 2005, seeking NFA's assistance to be flown to Germany as recommended by doctors, all to no avail. I guess there are also waiting to get her a wheel chair after the leg has been amputated.

CANCER IS TERMINAL, GEDDIT?[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]If you have it, you're gonna die someday, whether in Jamaica (See Bob Marley) or Yemi Tella See below (Courtesy Wikipedia). Emphases mine. Cancer may affect people at all ages, even fetuses, but risk for the more common varieties tends to increase with age.[1] Cancer causes about 13% of all deaths.[2] Apart from people, forms of cancer may affect animals and plants, , Other lifestyle and environmental factors known to affect cancer risk (either beneficially or detrimentally) include certain sexually transmitted diseases, the use of exogenous hormones, exposure to ionizing radiation and ultraviolet radiation, and certain occupational and chemical exposures. Every year, at least 200,000 people die worldwide from cancer related to their workplace. [20] Millions of workers run the risk of developing cancers such as lung cancer and mesothelioma from inhaling asbestos fibers and tobacco smoke, or leukemia from exposure to benzene at their workplaces.[20] Currently, most cancer deaths caused by occupational risk factors occur in the developed world.[20] It is estimated that approximately 20,000 cancer deaths and 40,000 new cases of cancer each year in the U.S. are attributable to occupation.[21] See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancer for more. And somehow, I feel that his family must have been given the terminal date long before now. Doctors often do that, so they can prepare. Nuff said.

That's not the point! Whether you have cancer or not, you'll also die someday. It's not as if Lung Cancer cannot be treated, why abandon our national asset?
It's a pity. At this rate, we may lose Olusoji Fasuba to another country.

a good public health system can vastly reduse the incidencs of death from cancer or any disease whatsoever. public health deals with prevention and control. it involves regular screening of citiens as the case may be. that way the cancer may have been discovered when it was still treatable.
Kanu had a heart disease that was discovered by the doctors at inter milan fc, it was taken care of b4 it becomes a problem. if he was playing for enyimba, he would never have known of the heart disease until someday he slumps on the field and dies, then we look for his enemy and blame.
europe has a high cancer rate, yet many cancer patients live up to their 80s. so a sound public health system could have contributed to reduce the chances of death from cancer (including the caoch's death)
'deboski,
from the above explanation you'll agree with me that the govt is not exonerated here. if our millions were thrown into the health sector, (both preventive and curative) chances are that the coach and many others woulda been alive now.

Yemi Tella had been sick for ages. If not for greed, he should not have accepted the job of coach when he should have been taking care of his health. As soon as the U-17 eaglets won the cup all of a sudden his health is now government problem? |

perhaps he couldnt take care of his health due to financial bounds so he may have needed the job to get the pay.

OK. Well said. So why use NOW to rehash the old arguement for good health system. A life well lived(?) is ended. That is the issue. If we as a people have failed to evolve a society that respects human life, whose fault is it? Who precisely is government? Is it not a greedier extention of the same negligent and deluded populace? Maybe we are just who we are, careless and carefree, ! But that said, govt did not infect Coach Tella so they should not be blamed for his death. For all I know he was given the best treatment possible for the stage of the infection.And while I agree with you that people in other countries might live longer, I will associate it with best living practices (exercises, peace of mind etc) which afterall are not government dependent. |

Sour Nairalanders!!!  Look at it from the bright side:The man has added value to his generation. And he also set a standard. This is something many people will pass through this journey called life without achieving. Go on and celebrate his life. RIP bro Tella. No one will live for ever. While u live, try to leave a mark. Tella has left his.Yemi Tella had been sick for ages. If not for greed, he should not have accepted the job of coach when he should have been taking care of his health. As soon as the Under-17 eaglets won the cup all of a sudden his health is now government problem?

i'm not blaming the yaradua govt. when i say govt ,i mean the poor govts we have had since I960. today it is the coach, 2mrw it will be somebody else, the ibos say that when some other family is carrying the corpse of a loved one, it seems like it is mere firewood , but when your own loved one is about to be buried, u realise that funeral is no entertainment.
with the health system in bad shape, more ominous statistics will continue to emanate, and just a reminder, those figures from our health statistics are actually human beings. when u hear 500,000 women die yearly of maternal mortality, it is actually human beings dying. now if that doesnt pain you, i wonder what will

actually we have to celebrate the man's life. here was a man who made this country proud at the twilight of his life. for once since i left nigeria, i saw nigeria in the news(not BBC/CNN) for something positive and he died too soon. he is a hero. but i pray we dont continue to have dead heroes b/c at the end of the day, a living dog is better than a dead lion. You are right but with a wrong mentality. Wont it save us more money if we simply upgrade our medical facilities here so we don't have to rely on "flying abroad" everytime a bee stings us?
good point. they may even spend more money to give him a hero's burial |

I do agree with you on that Dave, but truth be told, the only option available then was to fly him abroad for treatments when his health condition started deteriorating. We all know that we lack good health facilities in Nigeria, and you don't want to tell me that spending a few thousand dollars on him would stop the government from upgrading the poor medical facilities available in the country.
Na today?
