5 star matches to look forward to this weekend in Europe

Top European footballing leagues will be returning to action after intense final rounds of the FIFA World cup qualifiers in some regions.
There are mouth watering clashes in all Europe's top leagues, from the Premier League to La Liga, Italian Seria A and the German BundesLiga
Here are our top five star matches to look up to this weekend from the best footballing leagues in Europe:
1. Liverpool versus Manchester United :
Date: Saturday, October 14, 2017
Time: 12:30pm (Nigerian time)
Venue: Anfield
Referee: Martin Atkinson
Premier League rivals Liverpool and Manchester United are set to do battle in a tough Premier League encounter at Anfield on Saturday, October 14, 2017.
Last season, both teams shared the spoils in both encounter at Old Trafford and Anfield.
However, despite bring the away side in this side, United are the favourites to take all three points from this tie.
2. Juventus vs Lazio:
Date: Saturday 14th October 2017
Time: 5pm (Nigerian Time)
Venue name: Allianz Stadium
Referee: Paolo Silvio Mazzoleni from Italy
Its always a tough and interesting tie anytime Juventus are facing rivals Lazio and we do not think this game to be any different.
Juventus are in 2nd position while Lazio are currently placed 4th which means both teams have all to fight for it this game. Considering Head to Head records of both clubs, Juventus stand as favourites to emerge with all three points from this one.
3. Roma vs Napoli:
Time: 7:45pm (Nigerian time)
Venue name: Stadio Olimpico, Rome
Referee: Gianluca Rocchi from Italy
Napoli currently sit top of the Seria A log after winning all seven games played so far this season. However this is their first big test to determine if they will be taken serous as title contenders.
4. Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona:
Date: Saturday 14th October 2017
Time: 20:45 CEST
Venue name: Estadio Wanda Metropolitano
Referee: Antonio Mateu from Spain
Will Atletico Madrid put an end to Barcelona's 100% start to the season? or will it be business as usual for Ernesto Valverde's men?
Barcelona enjoy quite an impressive head to head record against Atletico Madrid and that might likely play into their advantage this time. Though the tactical acumen of Diego Simeone is one never to be easily ignored.
5. Watford vs Arsenal:
Ordinarily a game between Watford and Arsenal should not be tagged as a star match with high hopes that Arsenal will be placed as clear favourites.
However, one cannot neglect easily the current form of Watford going into in this game, and we will not be surprised if they manage to share the spoils with the Gunners on this one.

Pandemonium In Anambra Over Army Free Medical Service, 3 P upils Rumored Dead.

There is pandemonium in Anambra state as students are running helter skelter over what is rumored to be the death of 3 pupils in Ozubulu/Nnewi during free army medical services.

It was reported that some people in military uniform arrived a school in the area and started forcing them to take injection which led to the death of 3 pupils from yet-to-be identified school.

As 10 am today, parents are hurriedly zooming to schools to take their respective wards.

All the schools around the area are currently under lock.

PRESS STATEMENT ACCORDING TO THE ARMY MEDICAL OUTREACH.
The attention of the State Government has been drawn to an on going medical outreach being undertaken by the Army in Ozubulu, Ekwusigo Local Government Area.
The State has been made to understand that the exercise is part of Army social responsibility to members of the public.
However, strong apprehension among the populace has followed the exercise leading to withdrawal of students from schools by parents, misconception of the actual motive behind the exercise by stakeholders, community leaders and a general reservation by the public for whom the outreach is intended.
To this end and to ensure no further escalation of the situation, His Excellency the Governor, Chief Willie Obiano has contacted the Army Authories and advised for immediate stoppage of the medical outreach until wide sensitization is conducted to reassure people of its intentions and benefits. The exercise has therefore been put on hold.
Parents and guardians are strongly advised to stop withdrawing their wards from schools as the situation has been handled. All schools within the State will remain open as there is no cause for alarm! Community leaders, Presidents General and all Stakeholders are hereby reassured of the commitment of the Governor and the State Government to the wellbeing  of Ndi Anambra. 
The State Government also strongly condemns observed rhetorics on social media completely misrepresenting the situation with insinuations of spread of diseases and death of students in schools arising from the exercise. The State categorically refutes these rhetorics and confirms that there is no death of any student anywhere in the State. Mischief makers are warned to desist from spreading falsehood. Anambra remains calm and peaceful!

Thank you!

Prof Solo Chukwulobelu
Secretary to the State Government.

10 infected, 49 under surveillance as Monkey Pox hitsBayelsa

- Monkey pox is a rare disease that occurs primarily in remote parts of Central and West Africa, near tropical rain forests- 
Its outbreak in Bayelsa state has caused panic in Nigeria. 

Yesterday gripped residents of Yenagoa, the capital of Bayelsa State, following an outbreak of viral epidemic known as Monkey Pox in the state, with report that 10 persons are already infected. Authorities in the state were said to be tracking 49 persons alleged to have come in contact with the infected persons.
The victims, according to sources, have been quarantined in an isolation centre created at the Niger Delta University Hospital, NDUTH, Okolobiri, in Yenagoa Local Government Area of the state. The isolation centre was reportedly created by the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control, NCDC, and the epidemiological team of the state’s Ministry of Health at the outbreak of the epidemic.





A patient of Monkey Pox
The NCDC and the epidemiological team, it was learned, were tracking 49 other individuals, said to have come in contact with the infected persons. Commissioner reacts The state Commissioner for Health, Professor Ebitimitula Etebu, while confirming the development, said samples of the virus had been sent to the World Health Organisation, WHO, laboratory in Dakar, Senegal, for confirmation. He described Monkey Pox as a viral illness caused by a group of viruses that include chicken pox and small pox, noting that the first case was noticed in the Democratic Republic of Congo and subsequently it had outbreaks in the West African region. Explaining that the virus had the Central African and the West African types, the commissioner said the West African type was milder and had no records of mortality, saying “recently in Bayelsa State, we noticed a suspected outbreak of Monkey Pox. “It has not been confirmed. We have sent samples to the World Health Organisation, WHO, reference laboratory in Dakar, Senegal. When that comes out we will be sure that it is confirmed.” Index case He said the virus was first seen in monkeys, but can also be found in all bush animals such as rats, squirrels and antelopes. His words: “The source is usually all animals. It was first seen in monkeys and that is why it is called Monkey Pox. But every bush animals like rats, squirrels, antelopes are involved. So, the secretions from particularly dead animals are highly contagious.” He listed the dicease’s symptoms to include severe headache, fever, back pains among others. According to him, “most worrisome of all the signs are rashes bigger than those caused by chicken pox, which is usually frightening and usually spread to the whole body of infected persons. The Commissioner said: “We noticed the index case from Agbura, where somebody was purported to have killed and eaten a monkey and after neighbours and family members started developing these rashes. “We have seen cases from as far as Biseni. We invited the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control together with our own epidemiological team from the Bayelsa Ministry of Health. We have been able to trace most of the people who have come in contact with the patients. “I think so far we have 10 patients and we have created an isolation centre at the NDUTH and most of them are on admission; we are following up on the 49 cases that we are suspecting might come down with the illness. Immunity for life “As a state, we are taking care of all the expenses of all the isolated cases. The disease has an incubation period and it is also self-limiting in the sense that within two to four weeks, you get healed and it confers you with immunity for life. “We have mobilised virtually every arsenal at our disposal in terms of sensitising the public and making them aware by radio programmes, jingles and fliers. So the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control has mobilised fully to Bayelsa State. We are on top the situation. “The only thing I will tell the public is to observe hand hygiene and ensure they don’t come in contact with dead animals or their secretions. The disease is air borne too. So when you come down with it is very infectious. “People should wash their hands whenever they go in or come out of their houses. If they come in touch with animals, they should ensure that they wash their hands. They should be very vigilant. People should report any similar cases. “A lot of people have come down with the symptoms, but they are hiding in their houses. If they hide, there is the propensity for the infection to spread. It is better to quarantine them and treat so that we can interrupt the spread of the disease. “People should be calm and they shouldn’t get frightened. The state has distributed personal protective equipment to workers and they are using it accordingly.”
