South Wales Police will not investigate Eden Hazard’s assault on a ballboy, during Chelsea’s 0-0 draw with Swansea on Wednesday night.

Chris Foy sent the former Lille midfielder off, after he appeared to try and kick the ball from underneath one of the ballboys at the stadium, with ten minutes of the match left.

“South Wales is aware of the incident involving a ballboy at the Liberty Stadium in Swansea tonight. We are making arrangements for him to be interviewed. South Wales Police takes such matters very seriously,” Chief Superintendent Josh Jones, of South Wales police, said in a statement.

However, the ballboy met with police at the stadium and insisted he would not take further action against the Belgian player.

Rafa Benitez, had also revealed that Hazard met with the boy after the game and they both apologised to each other.

“I didn’t see the incident from the bench, but afterwards the boy came in to talk to Hazard, and both apologised to each other,” Benitez told Sky Sports.

“The boy knows he was wasting time, Hazard was frustrated because he wanted to get the ball back. They apologised, they made a mistake, and that’s it. We’re disappointed because we lost a player but the best thing is to move forward.”

Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola has directed members of his executive council, including commissioners, political office holders and all civil servants to restrain from granting interviews to the media.

The order was contained in a statement by the State Head of Service, Mr. Adesegun Ogunlewe.

He said no public servant or political office holder in the state must henceforth grant press interviews without due approval.

The Governor added that all those affected must take permission from the Ministry of Information.

The move, it was learnt was to avoid disclosing highly confidential matters to the press .

Fashola had imposed a similar ban during his first term in office.
