ARSENAL STRIKER, PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG MAY NOT PLAY FOR GABON AGAIN.


Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang may not play for Gabon again following a row with the country's football association, new coach Daniel Cousin has told RMC.



Gabon captain Aubameyang reacted angrily when the Gabon Football Federation announced that his father, Pierre Francois, would be co-coach, claiming they had done so the day before he had said he would give his decision on the offer.

Pierre-Emerick Emiliano François Aubameyang born on 18 June 1989 is a Gabonese professional footballer who plays as a striker for the Premier League club Arsenal captains the Gabonese national team.


Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has criticised the country's football federation (FEGAFOOT) after they appointed his father as national team coach and said Pierre Francois did not want the job.

Pierre François Aubameyang "Yaya" is a Gabonese international footballer. He also holds French passport. He is the father of Catilina, Willy and Pierre-Emerick. He won 80 caps for the Gabon national team. He spent most of his career at the French team Stade Lavallois.





The Arsenal striker expressed anger at what he called the "amateurism" of the national federation, who this week named his father and Daniel Cousin, ex-Gabon captains, as joint coaches to succeed former Spain manager Jose-Antonio Camacho.

"You were wondering why I have problems with you, why I don't want to come and play for the national team," Aubameyang wrote on Instagram in a post that tagged the Gabon federation.

"You have told the whole world about my father, the so-called coach of the national team, when you did not even get his agreement!

"The president of the federation called my dad but did not even care to ask about his state of health. He's sick at the moment.

"To rush out and hold a press conference [on Wednesday] when my father said he would give his answer only the next day is another demonstration of why.

"His decision, by the way, is negative. You didn't even give him a chance to negotiate about his staff members or other things."

The Arsenal striker claimed his father was yet to give his response to the job offer, while the federation said it had been pressured into making the announcement by Gabon's Minister for Sport and Youth.

Cousin, who has been put in sole charge, fears his hopes of steering the country to next year's African Nations Cup will be hampered by the absence of his star player.

"I left a message with his father, because I'm closer to him," 
he said. 

"But given what happened, I didn't want to rub salt in the wound with Pierre-Emerick.

"After what happened, I hope he'll honour his call-ups for the good of the Panthers, and that he'll help us qualify for the Nations Cup. But we can also consider a Plan B if he doesn't -- we have other players, and we'll make do."

Cousin said he was uncertain whether Aubameyang, who was born in France but opted to play for the country of his father's birth, would play in the qualifying double-header against South Sudan next month.

"After what happened on social media, I can't tell you his decision. As things got a bit heated, I'm not sure," 
he said.

"For the moment, I haven't had an answer. After the defeat against Zambia [in a friendly], he told me he would be there, but that was before this thing. I'm going to try and stay positive and I hope he'll be with us."

CUBA CLAIMS CANADIAN PRIME MINISTER IS FIDEL CASTRO'S SON.

The handwritten note left by Fidel Castro Diaz-Balart, 68, the eldest of Fidel Castro’s children, appears to confirm the longstanding rumor in Cuba that Fidel Castro fathered Justin Trudeau after a public tryst with Margaret Trudeau in 1970. “ Castro Diaz-Balart, who had been attended by a group of doctors for several months due to a state of profound depression, committed suicide this morning ,”  Cubadebate website reported.

WHY CHINA'S DOG-MEAT MARKET HAS EXPANDED.

Every year during the summer solstice, a dog-eating festival takes place in Yulin, a city in the southern Chinese province of Guangxi. This year’s event ended with the usual controversy. Photographs of dogs being fried or treated cruelly went viral.  The Jinhua Hutou Dog Meat Festival, as it is called, was abruptly canceled last week. Animal-rights activists and American congressmen demanded that China ban the eating of dogs and cats, as Taiwan did in April. Yulin’s local government took modest steps to restrain or hide some of the more contentious activities, such as selling dogs in food markets. Still, the festival was packed. Why has the controversial culinary habit become so popular in China? Contrary to cliché, dog meat has not always been a common item in the Chinese diet.  Unlike in the West, eating dogs has never been taboo, but it appears to have been rare in the past. Government accounts single out butchers who sold dog meat, suggesting it was unusu

PRESIDENT RAMAPHOSA'S SON INSULTS EX-PRESIDENT ZUMA'S SON.

President Cyril Ramaphosa's son Tumelo has caused a social media flurry by calling former president Jacob Zuma's son Duduzane a "fool" in a bragging post on Instagram. Yesterday, Ramaphosa's spokeswoman Khusela Diko said Tumelo was a "grown man" who had to answer for himself for his actions. "The president, however, finds such behaviour extremely unfortunate and distasteful and not in keeping with the values he espouses or the manner in which he would expect anyone to conduct themselves." Tumelo, in a brief video posted on his account this week, which was later deleted, took a dig at the son of his father's predecessor after arriving at a Dubai hotel. The video, which had already been saved and was re-posted and retweeted several times by some Instagram and Twitter users, sparked debate. Some users questioned the lack of outrage at Tumelo's remarks and comments, with others speculating on what would have happene

SON OF THE FORMER GUINEA PRESIDENT & HIS WIFE ARRESTED FOR ENSLAVING A WOMAN.

Texas, UNITED STATES: U.S. authorities have arrested the son of a former president of the West African country of Guinea and his wife for allegedly enslaving a countrywoman in their Texas home. Mohamed and Denise Cros-Toure were being held in a federal detention facility Friday pending a probable cause hearing Monday in Fort Worth on a forced labor charge. Toure’s attorney, Brady Wyatt, told The Associated Press that his client is the son of late Guinean President Ahmed Sekou Toure, who helped lead Guinea to independence from French rule in 1958.

FORMER CHEF BECOMES A MULTI-MILLIONARE BY POSTING FITNESS PICTURES ON INSTAGRAM.

Perth, AUSTRALIA: A former chef is now making a fortune by sharing fitness photos and videos online. Jem Wolfie, from Perth, Western Australia, has 2.5 million followers on Instagram and says she can make up to $30,000 a day selling photos and videos on subscription site, OnlyFans. After leaving high school and fast-tracking an apprenticeship, the 27-year-old began working 70 hour weeks as a chef. However, she eventually became disillusioned and began seriously pursuing basketball, playing in the Western Australia Basketball League (WABL). But this path was derailed in 2015 when she suffered a serious knee injury. During her rehab, she started posting short videos online, and their popularity quickly ballooned. Now, she has amassed a huge following online and still regularly shares videos of basketball trick-shots. She's also making way more money than she used to, so perhaps that knee injury wasn't so unfortunate after all. Speaking to Perth Now, she said:
