KESHI IS DEAD

One of the most iconic captains of the Nigerian national football team, the Super Eagles, and former coach of the team, Stephen Okechukwu Keshi, is dead, TheCable newspaper has reported. He was 54.

According to the paper, the death of the former international was confirmed by his relatives and close associates.

Mr. Keshi had lost his wife of 33 years, Kate, to cancer last year.

“He was not ill at all, never showed any signs of illness, but we suspect he never got over the death of his wife,” TheCable quoted one of his friends, whose name was not given, as saying.

Mr Keshi, popularly called the Big Boss, is the only Nigerian coach to have won the Africa Cup of Nations.

He also became the second person in history to win the competition as a player and as a coach after Mahmoud El-Gohary of Egypt when he led the Super Eagles to win the tournament in 2013 in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Nigerians spent $1bn (£690,000) on foreign medical trips in 2013, most of which was unnecessary, said Dr. Osahon Enabulele.

Nigerian politicians were mostly treated by Nigerian doctors in the UK, he added.

Buhari flew to London on Monday to be treated for an ear infection, the BBC reports.

It is unclear where the 73-year-old would be treated for what his office described as a “persistent” infection.

Dr. Enabulele, vice-president of the Commonwealth Medical Association, said it was a “national shame” that the President went to the UK for treatment when Nigeria had more than 250 ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialists, as well as a National Ear Centre.

“Buhari should lead by example by using Nigerian doctors and facilities, and ensure government officials do not go abroad on ‘frivolous’ medical trips, he told the BBC.

The UK had more than 3,000 Nigerian-trained doctors, and the United States more than 5,000, Dr. Enabule said, accusing the government of failing to address the brain drain by improving working conditions and Health Centres.
