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."

MALARIA VACCINE PROVES HIGHLY EFFECTIVE IN BURKINA FASO.

A vaccine against malaria has been shown to be highly effective in trials in Africa, holding out the real possibility of slashing the death toll of a disease that kills 400,000 mostly small children every year. The vaccine, developed by scientists at the Jenner Institute of Oxford University, showed up to 77% efficacy in a trial of 450 children in Burkina Faso over 12 months. The hunt for a malaria vaccine has been going on the best part of a century. One, the Mosquirix vaccine developed by GlaxoSmithKline, has been through lengthy clinical trials but is only partially effective, preventing 39% of malaria cases and 29% of severe malaria cases among small children in Africa over four years. It is being piloted by the World  Health  Organization in parts of Kenya, Ghana and Malawi. The Oxford vaccine is the first to meet the WHO goal of 75% efficacy against the mosquito-borne parasite disease. Larger trials are now beginning, involving 4,800 children in four countries.

GAMBIA ACCUSES EX-PRESIDENT SUPPORTERS OF SHELTERING REBELS.

Yahya Abdul-Aziz Jemus Junkung Jammeh (born 25 May 1965) is a Gambian politician and former military officer who was the leader of the Gambia from 1994 to 2017, firstly as chair of the Armed Forces Provisional Ruling Council (AFPRC) (1994–96) and then as President of the Gambia (1996-2017). The Gambia’s new government has accused supporters of the former president, Yahya Jammeh, of welcoming foreign rebels into their homes in an attempt to destabilise the country. Residents of Foni, the Gambian region where Jammeh had a vast farm and allegedly“bunkers and treasure”, have been hosting members of a rebel group that for three decades have been fighting for the secession of their region from Senegal. Giving them a safe haven in the Gambia threatens to upset relations with Senegal, which surrounds the tiny west African country on three sides, and was instrumental in ejecting a recalcitrant Jammeh after he lost the presidential election for the first time in his 22 years in ...

DEREK CHAUVIN TO BE CHARGED OVER ANOTHER 2017 INCIDENT.

New York, U.S: The Department of Justice is reportedly considering charging Derek Chauvin in a 2017 incident involving a Black teenager that came to light while prosecutors were preparing the George Floyd murder case against the former Minneapolis cop. The DOJ’s investigation focuses on footage of Chauvin striking a 14-year-old so hard that he needed stitches to close the wound, then kneeling on him for almost 17 minutes — mostly putting pressure on his upper back — as the youngster complained he couldn’t breathe, ABC News reported. Chauvin kept his knee on Floyd’s neck for more than nine minutes before the 46-year-old Black man died May 25, 2020 after begging for air. Chauvin was convicted of his murder Tuesday.
