RAY WILKINS IN COMA

Former England captain Ray Wilkins is seriously ill after suffering a cardiac arrest.
The 61 year-old is said to have been placed in an induced coma after falling and hitting his head after suffering the heart attack at home in Cobham, Surrey, on Wednesday.
“He’s in hospital, he’s had a cardiac arrest and is in intensive care,” Wilkins’ wife, Jackie, 
“He is not in a good state at all, I’m afraid. He’s critically ill. The cardiac arrest led to a fall which has meant he’s had to be put in an induced coma. It’s very, very bad.”
Wilkins, who played for Chelsea, Manchester United, QPR and Glasgow Rangers during his illustrious career, had previously been given the all-clear after undergoing a double heart bypass operation last July.
A winner of 84 England caps, Wilkins - known in the game as 'Butch' - played for 12 sides and was on the coaching staff of several more, but is commonly associated with Chelsea.
He started his career there and spent six years with the Blues, while also having numerous stints as assistant manager. On one occasion, he led the side on a caretaker basis.

THE YORUBA HISTORY (SANGO --- GOD OF THUNDER)

His symbol is a double-headed axe, which represents swift and balanced justice. Mythologically, he (and 14 others) burst forth from the goddess Yemaja’s body after her son, Orungan, attempted to rape her for the second time. In another set of stories, Sango is the son of Aganju and Obatala. As the story goes, Obatala, the king of the white cloth was travelling and had to cross a river. Aganju, the ferryman and god of fire, refused him passage so Obatala retreated and turned into a woman and traded his/her body for passage (this would later become a conspiracy theory about homosexuality existing even in the days of old). This tension between reason represented by Obatala and Aganju would form the foundation of Sango’s particular character and nature. Sango was said to have went in search of Aganju on which he had to throw himself into a lake of burning fire
