I Was Forced To Adjust My Birthday Programme Over Coronavirus –Obasanjo

  A former President of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, has said that he was forced to adjust events lined up to mark his 83rd birthday due to the outbreak of Coronavirus in the country.  He made the comments on Thursday in Abeokuta, Ogun State, while addressing well-wishers.  The former President said, “When we were thinking of this celebration, two programmes came to mind. “One was to see what Asian countries have done to make their continent become what they have become, for instance, Malaysia, which was worse than us when we got independence; South Korea which was below us and Vietnam which was plunged into series of wars. “We would have spent the day before yesterday and yesterday to really consider how the Asians have risen to greatness. “And what lessons we could learn from them but because of Coronavirus, that programme was shelved. Some of them were not able to make it.” Politics PUBLIC HEALTH News AddThis :  Original Author :  SaharaReporters, New York Disable

Water pipit

Water pipit . The water pipit (Anthus spinoletta) is a small songbird which breeds in the mountains of Southern Europe and Southern Asia eastwards to China. It is a short-distance migrant; many birds move to lower altitudes or wet open lowlands in winter. In breeding plumage it has greyish-brown upperparts, weakly streaked with darker brown, and pale pink-buff underparts fading to whitish on the lower belly. The head is grey with a broad white eyebrow, and the outer tail feathers are white. The winter colours are duller, with more brown. Water pipits construct a cup-like nest on the ground under vegetation or in cliff crevices and lay four to six speckled greyish-white eggs, which hatch in about two weeks with about two more weeks until the chicks fledge. Although pipits occasionally catch insects in flight, they feed mainly on small invertebrates picked off the ground or vegetation, and also on some plant material. The species population is large and stable overall.
