Sports › How Corruption Is Killing Young Nigerian Football Dreams At The Grassroots by sureteeboy(op): 7:04pm On Oct 18, 2014
While the country grapples with qualifying for the Nations Cup, rot
at the base of the game could be reason why we might never
really make great strides.

A young man visited my family at home on Sunday afternoon and we began to delve into the matter of the strange defeat of the Super Eagles in Khartoum the day before.
As we talked about the fate of Nigeria’s
qualification for the Africa Cup of Nations hanging in the balance and how it seems many players in the national team do not deserve their place, my visitor opened up on his experience playing in a youth academy.


While growing up, this young man realized he had special talent for
football and had his father register him with one of the most famous
football academies in the country.
Every Saturday, he went to train with many other young boys who hoped
to one day become stars and represent their country on the big stage.
Joseph (not his real name) told me how he trained so hard that every
breathing moment was used in imagining himself at a top club playing
alongside his heroes.

However, at the academy he realized that no matter how hard he trained,
when there was any opportunity to play competitive matches, himself and
his hard working colleagues were sidelined for new players who emerged
out of the blues.
It dawned on them that many of the players who were featured in their
place had been included very late due to the influence that their parents had
with the coaching directors.
Not only were these new players favoured, their parents seemed to grease
the palms of the coaches in order that their children could catch the eye of
scouts during those important competitions.
Joseph spent seven years playing at the academy, training every Saturday
and often twice a week ahead of tournaments, but played less than five
competitive matches throughout.
On realizing that he wasn’t going to get the push he needed to catch the eye
of the scouts and move into the big leagues, he eventually opted to learn
photography as his life trade.
I was touched after hearing his story and was saddened at how corrupt
football at the grassroots is in Nigeria.
Like Joseph, many budding talents have been lost to the corrupt system.
When a talented young boy or girl fails to find someone to give them that
edge in a corrupt system, their talent fades away and they lose interest.


Imagine how many Jay Jays and Papilos have abandoned their talent
because they had no father or uncle to grease the palms of the academy
coach who could field them in a competition where they would have
caught the eye of a Nigeria Premier League club’s scout.
So we end up with less than talented players on the youth national teams
who have gotten there mainly because their agent or parent paid nicely to
the coach in charge.
Fingers have always been pointed at national team coaches for asking for
bribes from players and players’ agents in order to receive call ups.
However, nothing has ever been proved because players are afraid to speak
out or rock the boat.

No one wants to be accused of bringing down another man even in the face
of blatant abuse of power. Hence, the cycle continues as we wallow in
silence.
Inadvertently, Nigeria ends up with mediocre players who have learnt from
their youth that the best way to achieve success is to grease the palm of the
coach and you will be called up to his squad.
Like Austin Okocha tweeted on Saturday, Nigerian football has died long
ago we’re only just witnessing its obituary.
It is killed by every academy and national team coach who insists on
fielding undeserving players after collecting gratification from their parents
and agents.
They are the ones killing the dreams of many young Josephs out there,
inadvertently shortchanging our country’s football development.

Sports › Morocco Denies Pulling Out As Hosts Of 2015 AFCON by sureteeboy(op): 6:51pm On Oct 18, 2014
Morocco has denied that it had withdrawn hosting of the 2015 AFCON.
The North African country however insists that they still want the
tournament postponed, forcing a conflict with organisers.
The Confederation of African Football has maintained its stance that the
tournament, to be held between January 17 and February 8, must go
ahead as planned.
The ebola virus has claimed more than 4,000 lives since the start of the
year, and with around a million spectators expected to travel to watch
the tournament, Morocco sports minister Mohamed Ouzzine reiterated
the country’s desire to for a postponement.
“Our concern is the health of Africa, and based on WHO [World Health
Organisation] reports and guidelines, we have to listen,” he said.
“Zero safety does not exist, but one has to take the necessary precautions
so that the coming tournament will be a football feast, bringing together
our African brothers, but given the current ebola situation we don’t think
such a feast can take place as expected.
https://www.thenationonlineng.net/new/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Morocco.jpg


“I don’t think there is any state or any country that has the necessary
capabilities to monitor, check and control the current ebola situation
when faced with these numbers. This is our real problem. We don’t have
a problem with visiting teams, we have a problem with visitors.”

Sports › Morocco Officially Withdraw From Hosting Nations Cup by sureteeboy(op): 7:13pm On Oct 16, 2014
Host of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations, Morocco on Thursday
officially informed Confederation of African Football (CAF) that
they are no longer willing to host the bi-annual tournament.
The North African country had earlier asked CAF to postpone the
tournament due to the spread of Ebola virus in parts of West
Africa.
However, the continental football body had insists that the
tournament will go on in January 2015 as originally scheduled.
Morocco has now
informed CAF that
the tournament pose a health and security risk to its citizens if it
should hold on the earlier agreed date and since both parties
could not reach a compromise they are no longer interested in
hosting the competition.
Morocco’s withdrawal puts CAF in a desperate position. With less
than three months to go to the kickoff of the 2015 Nations Cup, the
continental football governing body is yet to announce
replacement for the North African country.
Already, host of the 2013 edition, South Africa have been tipped to
rescue CAF from this quagmire as they seem to most prepare to
host the tournament on such a short notice.

englishmart:
I have only 2 questions for those of you watched the match either live or through your TV.

1. The stadium, is it European standard?
2. The fans turn-up well well?

Sorry for the question. I no watch the match
1) No, it isn't. The grasses are not properly kept and nylons of various sizes are seen all over the pitch. If managed properly, it is surely an European standard.
2) Dem turn up ooo. Though, not all the seats are occupied.

Sports › Mikel Obi Condemns Awful Sudan Pitch. by sureteeboy(op): 10:14pm On Oct 12, 2014
Super Eagles midfielder John Obi Mikel has described Saturday’s
outing in Khartoum as a nightmare as Nigeria failed to get
anything right despite the energy and effort put in.
Mikel who has come under the hammer in recent times for
supposed pedestal performances for the national team stated that it
was wrong for people to say the Eagles don’t deserve to be at next
year’s Nations Cup in Morocco.
“Why I can’t still believe how and why we lost that game it’s
important to move ahead and for those saying we don’t deserve to
be in Morocco, I think that is unfortunate and we must stop
spreading that negativity because it gets to the team. The pitch we
played in was awful. You can’t move, the ball bounces when you
want to control it and when you shoot it goes the wrong direction,
it was a nightmare playing on that pitch”, he said.
Mikel and his
colleagues will hope
they will get their acts right on Wednesday as they on Sudan
again at the Abuja National Stadium.

Nairaland General › Muslim Fanatic Beheads Woman After Co- Workers Refuse To Convert To Islam by sureteeboy(op): 9:36pm On Sep 26, 2014
A man beheaded one woman and stabbed another at an Oklahoma food
processing plant from which he had just been fired today, authorities
said.
Alton Nolen was reportedly fired from Vaughan Foods in Moore, Okla.,
this morning and drove directly from the human resources office to
another building in the facility and attacked two women in the front
office, police said.
Nolen "became angry" after being fired, the Moore Police Department
said in a statement.
2 Killed in Alabama UPS Shooting Were Supervisors
There are no apparent ties to terrorism.
The FBI is now involved in the case and were called in by the local
police "due to the manner of death and the initial statements of co-
workers," according to the Moore Police Department.
"After conducting interviews with Nolen's co-workers, information was
obtained that he recently started trying to convert several employees to
the Muslim religion," police said in a statement.
Nolen, 30, attacked his first alleged victim, 54-year-old Colleen
Hufford, with a knife that is regularly used by employees at the plant,
police said.
Nolen severed Hufford's head and then began stabbing Traci Johnson,
43, multiple times, police said.
Nolen was then shot by the company's chief operating officer, Mark
Vaughan, who is also a reserve sheriff's deputy, according to the Moore
Police Department.
Both Nolen and Johnson have been hospitalized, police said.
The FBI is now involved in the case and were called in by the local
police "due to the manner of death and the initial statements of co-
workers," according to the Moore Police Department.
The police department responded with a tactical team and treated it as
an active shooter incident because the person who called police was
unsure where the gunshots came from, police said.
ABC News consultant and former senior FBI agent Brad Garrett, who
has extensive experience in criminal profiling, said that on the surface
the incident appears to be "workplace violence."
"It's within the realm of reasonableness that this is ISIS-related, but
you have to go back to the motive, and the motive was he was mad,"
Garrett said, referring to the militant group linked to the recent
beheading of two American journalists.
Vaughan Foods spokesperson Danielle Katcher said in a statement that
"we are shocked and deeply saddened by the events of today."
"Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends of the
team member we lost and all those affected," Katcher added. "Our
focus is on the safety and well-being of our employees. We will provide
counseling and support for our team members and support each other
through this difficult time."
"We are working with authorities on this active investigation," Katcher
said.

Health › EBOLA: US Air Marshal In 'quarantine' After Syringe Attack In Nigeria by sureteeboy(op): 7:10am On Sep 09, 2014
A federal air marshal is in quarantine in Houston today after being attacked last night by an unknown assailant at the Lagos, Nigeria airport wielding a syringe. U.S. law enforcement officials told ABC News they were alarmed by the bizarre, unprovoked attack because the assailant was apparently able to inject an unknown substance into the back of one of the air marshal’s arms. The air marshal was traveling with a team of other marshals when the attack took place in an unsecured area of the airport terminal in Lagos, the officials said. He was able to board the United Airlines flight to Houston he was scheduled to work and was met early this morning in Houston by FBI agents and health workers from the Centers for Disease Control ( CDC). Amid fears the substance could contain some form of the Ebola virus, the air marshal was immediately put into quarantine. The FBI said he was screened "on-scene... out of an abundance of caution." An FBI spokesperson said, “The victim did not exhibit any signs of illness during the flight and was transported to a hospital upon landing for further testing. None of the testing conducted has indicated a danger to other passengers." Health experts say most infectious agents would not immediately manifest or make the patient contagious. While the unknown assailant ran away and could not be located, officials said the other air marshals on the team were able to secure the needle and bring it on the flight for testing in the U.S. U.S. air marshals travel undercover in plain clothes and it would not be immediately obvious to an attacker that his target was an American law enforcement agent, officials say. “While there is no immediate intelligence to confirm this was a targeted attack, this is our reminder that international cowards will attempt to take sneaky lethal shots at our honorable men and women abroad,” said Jon Adler, the national president of the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association. The Lagos airport has long been considered a possible target for the terror group Boko Haram which has conducted a series of deadly attacks across Nigeria. www.abcnews.go.com/International/us-air-marshal-quarantine-syringe-attack-nigeria/story?id=25353527
Health › Mystery Respiratory Virus Hit Kids In United States by sureteeboy(op): 10:42am On Sep 08, 2014
A respiratory illness that has already sickened more than a thousand
children in 10 states is likely to become a nationwide problem, doctors
say.
The disease hasn't been officially identified but officials suspect a
rare respiratory virus called human enterovirus 68. According to the
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention_"
target="_blank">Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the virus is
related to the rhinovirus, which causes the common cold.
According to Mark Pallansch, director of the Division of Viral Diseases
at the CDC, similar cases to the ones in Colorado have been cropping up
across the U.S. At least 10 states -- Missouri, Kansas, Illinois,
Kentucky, Iowa, Colorado, Ohio, Oklahoma, North Carolina, and Georgia
-- have reported suspected outbreaks of human enterovirus 68 and
requested CDC support.
"Viruses don't tend to respect borders," ABC News Chief Health and
Medical Editor Dr. Richard Besser said. "It is only 10 states now, but
it's going to be across the country. So if your state doesn't have it
now, watch for it, it's coming."
Doctors say they are not even sure yet how this particular virus
spreads, though the back-to-school season is a normal time for illnesses
to spread among children.
"This is a very common time for outbreaks. Kids come back to school,
they like to share things, they bring them home to their little brothers
and sisters, and enteroviruses tend to occur in the summer," Besser said.
"But this one, this particular Enterovirus 68, is very rare and they have
no idea why it showed up this year."
At Children's Hospital Colorado in Denver, officials say that between
Aug. 18 and Sept. 4, doctors saw more than 900 pediatric patients with
symptoms of the respiratory virus in the emergency room. Of those who
came in, 86 were admitted into the hospital and a handful ended up in
the intensive care unit.
"It can start just like a cold -- runny nose, sneezing, coughs -- but it's
the wheezing you have to watch out for," Besser said.
Dr. Christine Nyquist, a pediatrician at Children's Hospital Colorado,
said the virus usually ends up appearing similar to a severe cold but can
be particularly dangerous for children with asthma because of how it
affects the respiratory system.
"The kids are coming in with respiratory symptoms, their asthma is
exacerbated," Nyquist said. "Kids with no wheezing are having
wheezing."
Doctors Probe Polio-Like Illness in California
Life Saving Dog Sniffs Out Girl's Disease
Girl 'Cured' Of HIV at Birth Now Has Virus
At Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children, Dr. Raju Meyappan, a
pediatric critical care physician, said he's seen at multiple children end
up in the pediatric intensive care unit after being infected with the
virus and that children under the age of 5 or those with asthma appear
to be most at risk.
In one particularly severe case, Meyappan said a 13-year-old asthmatic
patient ended up in the emergency room just one day after showing
basic cold-like symptoms, including cough and runny nose.
His asthma became so severe on the second day the teenager turned
blue and was rushed to the emergency room, where doctors gave him an
emergency breathing tube.
The patient was one of multiple asthmatic pediatric patients who ended
up sedated in the intensive care unit with a breathing tube, Meyappan
said. Patients who needed breathing tubes spent between four to seven
days sedated and intubated as they recovered, he said.
"As a pediatric ICU doctor, we try our best not to intubate kids with
asthma at any point in time," said Meyappan, who added that only the
most severe cases warranted intubation. "They all needed it. The onset
[of the virus] is severe."
Meyappan said currently four patients were in the pediatric ICU
recovering.
There are multiple reasons why the outbreak was hitting Denver now,
instead of later in the fall or winter when flu .htm" id="ramplink_cold
and flu_" target="_blank">cold and flu infections start to rise, Nyquist
said.
In addition to school starting, Nyquist said, some children with asthma
could have seasonal allergies that are exacerbated by the virus.
"Any kind of viral infection can kick off wheezing and asthmas," she
said. "People with asthma know what triggers their asthma. A viral
infection is one thing and this is the one that is circulating."
To stay healthy, the CDC recommends basic sanitary practices to avoid
spreading the virus, including washing hands, avoiding those who are
sick, and covering the nose and mouth during sneezes or coughs.
Meyappan said parents of asthmatic children should make sure that
their children's inhalers are easily accessible and that there is a
treatment plan in place if an asthma attack continues to get worse.
"Make sure [parents] talk to all their caregivers about what to do if
[the child has] an asthma attack and where to go if they need help,"
Meyappan said. "I think having a game plan in place helps." abcnews.go.com/Health/unidentified-respiratory-virus-hit-kids-country/story?id=25334106
