ACCRA Moins Cher Femme Nike Air Presto QS Lac Bleu Blanche , Sept. 26 (Xinhua) -- Ghanaian President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on Tuesday rewarded the home-based Black Stars team with a cash prize of 100,000 U.S. dollars for annexing the 2017 West African Football Union (WAFU) tournament.
The Black Stars B won the WAFU trophy in a grand style after defeating archrivals Nigeria 4-1 in the final of the competition in Cape Coast last Sunday.

"So the token of the appreciation of the nation for this exceptional feat and excellent result, I am also going to add 100,000 dollars to what you have already been given so that the bonus you were not given before Rabais Homme Nike Air Presto QS Bleu , at least, you get the bonus after the achievement," he told the players.

ACCRA, Feb. 17 (Xinhua) -- International development aid organization WaterAid has joined the fight to eradicate infant mortality in Ghana through its "Healthy Start Campaign".
The campaign is aimed at improving the health and nutrition of newborns and children under-five years globally.
"Access to clean water and safe sanitation is a basic human right, and when combined with good hygiene practices, it constitutes the essential building blocks for good health," Afia Zakiya, Country Director for WaterAid Ghana (WAG), said during the launching ceremony here Monday.
She pointed out that poor hygiene practices and the absence of clean water and safe sanitation had a particularly devastating impact on the health and well-being of newborns and children.
In Ghana Homme Nike Air Presto Noir Achetez , around 19,000 people, including 5,100 children under five years, die each year from diarrhea. Out of this number, nearly 90 percent can directly be attributed to poor Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) services.
These deaths Homme Nike Air Presto Essential Noir Grise Pas Cher , Zakiya said, could be drastically reduced and child health improved if attention was given to ensuring that health plans, policies, programs and practices took WASH as a fundamental component of any public health system.
She explained that newborns and children were prone to intestinal infections when exposed to any form of contamination, resulting in severe diarrhea and high morbidity and mortality rates.
"WAG believes that all health care facilities in Ghana, especially where women go to give birth, must ensure separate ones for women and men Nike Air Presto BR Noir Pas Cher , as a matter of urgency," she said.
Chaka Uzondu, WASH and Health Focal Lead at WAG advocated a strong inter-sectoral collaboration and effort by government to embed WASH services in all plans.
This is to help reduce under-nutrition, acute malnutrition, preventable childhood diseases and newborn deaths, Uzondu said.
According to WaterAid, its Healthy Start Homme NikeLab Acronym Presto Mid Utility Noir Blanche Rabais , which is concerned about the health of the nation, newborns and infants, will run for the next four years.
"Achieving our goal of giving all our children a healthy start is possible. Inspirational leadership, working with commitment and dedication to transformation of our public health system can make this possible," the NGO stated.
It said a key recognition of such transformation of Ghana's public health system is the recognition and prioritization of WASH services in a promotive and preventive-oriented health care system.
Although many would like to attribute some of the diseases to nature, medical science had proven that, with proper care Nike Air Presto Homme Noir Rouge Pas Cher , many of these diseases could be prevented, the NGO said.
BRUSSELS, Aug. 17 (Xinhua) -- Traces of fipronil had already been detected in Belgium in September 2016 in products containing eggs, head of Belgium's Food Agency said on Thursday.
One sample out of 14 contained traces of fipronil in September 2016, but no trace of the pesticide had been found before that, or from September to December 2016. After that, traces of fipronil have been found again from January to July 2017.
According to Herman Diricks Homme Nike Air Presto ISLAND Bleu Pas Cher , Chief Executive of Belgium's Food Agency, necessary measures to preserve public health have been taken.
Belgium's Public Health minister Maggie De Block also claimed that "public health in Belgium has never been endangered at any moment".
Since the beginning of the year, traces of fipronil in Belgium have mainly been found in egg powder in various products, according to Belgium's Food Agency.
Fipronil is a pesticide effective on a large number of pests. It is considered slightly poisonous by the World Health Organization (WHO) and is hence forbidden on animals destined for the food chain to prevent damage to human liver, thyroid and kidney.
