AFCON 2023 Finals: WHO sends warning to Nigerians

As excitement builds up for the highly anticipated final match between Nigeria and Cote D Ivoire in AFCON 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a warning to Nigerians.

In a statement released just two days before the match, the WHO advised all citizens to check their health status before watching the game. Alternatively, individuals with pre-existing conditions such as high blood pressure or heart diseases that could potentially lead to cardiac arrest have been advised to stay away from watching the match live.

While football matches can often elicit strong emotions and exhilaration, it is crucial to prioritize personal well-being. The high-stress nature of such events can have adverse effects on individuals with underlying health conditions. The WHO’s warning serves as a reminder that it is critical to take care of one’s health and monitor any existing medical conditions when engaging in activities that may heighten emotional or physical stress levels.

It is no secret that football is more than just a sport in Nigeria. It is a unifying force that brings people from all walks of life together, creating an atmosphere of solidarity and national pride. However, the WHO’s cautionary message emphasizes the importance of safeguarding health above all else.

High blood pressure and heart diseases are prevalent in Nigeria and are majorly contributing to the country’s overall health burden. Public health initiatives have been implemented to address these concerns, but individual responsibility is equally important.

Those who fall under the high-risk category are urged to prioritize their well-being by either opting not to watch the match or waiting for the final scores to be announced. While it may be disappointing for football enthusiasts, it is crucial to prioritize one’s own health and safety.

For those who do decide to partake in the excitement and watch the match, it is advisable to be mindful of one’s emotional and physical well-being. Taking breaks, engaging in relaxation techniques, and ensuring adequate hydration and nutrition are some ways to mitigate the potential risks associated with watching such intense sporting events.

Ultimately, the WHO’s warning serves as a reminder that personal health should always come first. While football can create a sense of unity and joy, it should not come at the expense of one’s well-being. By being proactive and responsible, Nigerians can enjoy the AFCON final while also ensuring their health remains a top priority.
