FIRST WORLD CUP QUALIFICATION;PANAMA DECLARES HOLIDAY

By

Panama President Juan Carlos Varela declared a national holiday in celebration at the central American country's first ever qualification for the World Cup.

"It's a historic day for the country. Tomorrow (Thursday) will be a national holiday for public and private sector workers," Varela said on Twitter wedesday.

Panama came from behind to beat Costa Rica 2-1 on Tuesday night and book a ticket to Russia 2018.
The victory left them third in the CONCACAF area qualification behind Mexico and Costa Rica, and sensationally helped knock the United States out of contention.

Thousands of Panamanians celebrated long into the night in the capital Panama City as a cacophony of car horns greeted the historic news.

"Today the planets aligned, you must never lose faith," Varela had said on the Estadio Rommel Fernandez pitch in the capital following the match.
Although not Panama's national game, football is rapidly catching up with baseball and boxing as the country's favourite sport.

I usually do not write,talk or contribute to whatever it is that has to do with prisoners generally. Why because,even though I am not perfect,I do not have a criminal record and I know how very careful I mind myself,the law and people in general to avoid even been invited as witness in any case,talk more of been a plaintiff or accused.

He said Sheriff’s contract had long expired and that he has nothing to contribute to the opposition party’s development. Ihedioha told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Port Harcourt on Monday that Sheriff by his conduct had failed to show an attitude worthy of uniting and strengthening the party.
