Anyway one is a defensive midfielder and one is an attacking , so i am not comparing them.

Who talent help? many talented players didn't fulfill their potentials thou

Joebie:
There are very few players in football history that are usually marked by not 2, 3 alone but 4 or even more players at a time in a game. If only Okocha played less for fun, he would be among football’s greatest in terms of achievement as well.

Joebie:
For majority of the games Mikel played for Chelsea he kept his game simple though it was a crucial role for Chelsea’s many wins. Okocha however always stood out and his impact in games were obvious. These two players are in two different wave lengths.

Joebie:
Okocha didn’t reach his true potential but still surpassed many.

When you say consistent, in what sense do you mean?

I will advise you to take a chill pill.... U have done nothing but complain and swear ever since the virus entered the country..
There's nothing the government would have done that could habe stopped the virus from entering...it was inevitable....over half of the countries in the world now have the virus. There's no point in crying over spilled milk like u have been doing all weeks... E no go help anybody ..

Danielnino00:


Malawi had closed down its borders and declared a state of emergency like a week ago even when they had no confirmed cases.. now they have 3...

Before the end of this month,every country on earth may be affected...

What we (including oga Humility ) should be more concerned about is how the citizens can cooperate with the government to help reduce the spread of the virus...we shouldn't make the same mistake USA,UK and Italy made by underestimating the impact of the virus... There are still some people in Nigeria who believe that coronavirus isnt in the country. They think it is a hoax created by the government to loot money...

'You're just SH*T!' - Eto'o & Drogba slam medical professors over 'racist' remarks coronavirus vaccine tests should be conducted in Africa


Two doctors had suggested on French television that testing for a potential vaccine against Covid-19 should happen in Africa.

Samuel Eto'o and Didier Drogba have hit back angrily at “racist and contemptuous” comments made by two doctors on French television suggesting studies on drugs to combat coronavirus should be tested in Africa.

Former Chelsea and Senegal forward Demba Ba posted a video of the exchange on Twitter.

Ba commented: “Welcome to the West, where white people believe themselves to be so superior that racism and stupidity become commonplace. TIME TO RISE.”


The comments in question regard the potential testing of the BCG vaccine, generally used against tuberculosis, as a preventative measure against Covid-19.

"If I can be provocative, shouldn't we do this study in Africa where there are no masks, no treatment, no resuscitation?" asked Professor Jean-Paul Mira, head of the intensive care unit at the Cochin Hospital in Paris.

“The same as for some AIDS studies where prostitutes try things because we know they’re unprotected”.

Professor Camille Locht, research director at Inserm, replied: "You are right. We are currently thinking in parallel about a study in Africa to make this same type of approach with the BCG.

“There is a tender process that has gone out or is going to go out. We will seriously think about that.

“That doesn’t prevent us from thinking in parallel about a study in Europe and Australia.”

Cameroon legend Eto’o replied to Ba’s video on Twitter: “Sons of bitches,” before adding in a post on Instagram: “You are just SH*T. Africa isn’t yours to play with.”

Drogba also called out the comments as “absurd”, with the two-time African Footballer of the Year clearly appalled by any suggestion African people should be used “as guinea pigs”.

“It is inconceivable that we continue to accept this,” Drogba wrote on Twitter. “Africa is not a laboratory.

“I strongly denounce these serious, racist and contemptuous remarks!

“Help us save lives in Africa and stop the spread of this virus which is destabilising the whole world, instead of considering us as guinea pigs. It is absurd!

“African leaders have a responsibility to protect people from these heinous plots.”

BCG is only one of numerous vaccines and antiviral drugs being considered for its potential against coronavirus.

Vaccines must go through rigorous testing and development stages before they can be approved for widespread use and enter mass production.

Common estimates from scientists suggest a viable vaccine against Covid-19 is likely to be at least 18 months away from being ready for public use.

Humility017:


I can stick my nose on this that most of the clueless leaders we have In Africa will gladly accept this vaccine
they will do... they often shamelessly asslick this European nations and have turned themeselves and their countries to beggars

somehow:
Roll call for our members in the US, UK and elsewhere.

Tbaba, Komeka and co, we want to be sure you guys are safe over there. The number countries like UK, US, Spain, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Netherland and the rest are pulling (Convid-19) is kinda alarming.

We need you guys to post here o, so we'd be sure you guys are safe.

May we not lose anyone to this virus!

Rashidi Yekini!!!?


Lol

Funny right


Justifiable?

MainJoe:


I do not believe in lockdowns as a means to curb the virus. Look at the rate at which the virus spreads despite Lockdowns. This virus has a way of penetrating even the most formidable Lockdown situations.

The solution remains rapid testing and early treatment. Just like any other disease. Most people who were discovered to have the virus early survived with early treatment to keep them from getting respiratory conditions.

If we study Dr. Vladimir Zelenko's treatment and regimen, it has to do with getting people treated early. By treating 699 patients with his treatment and regimen, he had no deaths.

The lockdown creates an illusion that all is well by the time the respiratory illness comes, it is too late.

Lockdown means nothing without testing, isolating and treating infected ones.

tbaba1234:


I am doing well. Staying home as much as possible

forgiveness:


Justifiable.

I as a Chelsea fan had great expectations on Mikel but he unfortunately, he was not spectacular. Was totally underutilized.

Kanu Nwankwo was a make shift player throughout his career due to his heart disease and he was a seasonal player. Only achieved in European football but did in the Super Eagle.

Okocha na Baba. But did nothing in club football and was behind Yekin during their days in the national team.

Who is the greatest ARGENTINE player of all time? Is it Messi or Maradona?

In terms of individual accolades, he won the African footballer of the year in 1993. Both Austin Okocha and Mikel Obi never won the award, how then can they lay claim to being the greatest Nigerian footballer of all-time? On this parameter, only Kanu is his competitor, he won the African footballer of the year twice but never won the AFCON. How can a player that never won the AFCON be the greatest Nigerian footballer of all-time? Yekini won everything a Nigerian footballer could have won representing the national team, both team and individual. The others can't lay claim to that.

Are you better than the governor of New York who locked down the state?

BascoVanVeli:


They are also doing a lot of testing in new York. Joe is right on this one. Both must go hand in hand.

BascoVanVeli:


The only player to score 100 goals in Nigeria and Europe. I always wonder what would have happened if he left the country at a younger age iheanacho and Osimhen

To date, it (South Africa) has tested more than 47,000 people, although experts and health officials say that much more needs to be done to try and isolate infected individuals. Head of the Medical Research Council Glenda Gray told Quartz Africa that the country should be testing about 25,000 people a day. “We’re far behind.”

https://www.google.com/amp/s/qz.com/africa/1832066/coronavirus-covid-19-testing-in-south-africa-leads-continent/amp/

Nigeria is testing about 200 people a day. We have only 8 testing labs unlike South Africa that has over 67 mobile testing labs alone.

I doubt testing is going on in a place like Rivers State. It is baffling why we hinge on Lockdowns that will not keep us safe, over mass testing and isolation that will quickly curb the spread.

safarigirl:


Nigeria cannot have plenty testing labs.

Testing labs require money, your government will sooner watch Nigerians die, than spend money

Once they have finished testing the top 5% of this country, everybody else, na to your tent I Israel
