Some Nigerian football fans reacted to this optimistic message from the Italian Minister.
Mr. Taiwo Ajadi said truly he is a fan of English Clubs, Arsenal precisely, but he loved the word of encouragement from the minister.
“After darkness, light has begun to shine now in Italy and very happy that the massive dying from Covid-19 in Italy has come to past,” he said.

One of the players of Maiyegun FC, Issa Lawal, said Nigerians should be hopeful that the COVID-19 is going soon and things will come to normalcy. “Our death rate from COVID-19 is not one-quarter of that of Italy but today they are hopeful than any other country in the world,” he said.
