Does Blackburn Rovers El Hadji Diouf Hold Key To Peace And War In Libya?

by | 20th, April 2011

BLACKBURN Rovers winger El Hadji Diouf, now on loan at Glasgow Rangers, tells Algerian magazine Le Buteur:

“Gaddafi is a man I’ve always admired. I’m telling the truth. I know him and I know Seif, his son. They are my friends. But frankly I don’t really know what is happening in Libya, but it must be very hard for Gaddafi and his family. I say that, Inch’Allah (Allah willing) victory will go to whoever is right.

“I don’t know who is right and who is wrong but it’s a shame to see so many victims.”

Rovers fan and Lancashire Telegraph columnist John Myles offers:

“Yet again it seems that Diouf is deliberately courting controversy and unpopularity. Everything about Diouf suggests that he would be a good person to travel to Libya to handle the peace negotiations. I think he should travel to the warzone immediately!”

And just as soon as his peace mission to Glasgow is over, Diouf will be free to do good works elsewhere…
