A FIFA World Cup host country must guarantee two fundamental principles: the safety of the country — and the unrestricted entry of all qualified teams, officials and referees. The case of referee Omar Artan from Somalia is against one of these obligations. FIFA must never compromise the universality of football. #Fifa #Somalia #GianniInfantino #CAF #OmarAtan #DonaldTrump
We are deeply saddened to share the loss of one of our own 💔
Today, our dear fanclub member Abed Al Monhiem Moghnieh was killed by an Israeli airstrike in South Lebanon. A fan of @BlackYellow and a member of Cedars of Dortmund
He once told us about his dream: to travel to
🚨 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Very sad news. 💔😭
Top African referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan has been denied entry into the United States after arriving for the 2026 World Cup. 🇸🇴
He has been sent back to Turkey, with no clear reason given so far.
More details are expected to emerge.

Norway said that they are not going to play in World Cup in Qatar even if they qualified (they didn’t). Denmark left it until the last minute to confirm their participation in the World Cup 2022Germany forced their players to make political statements before the match in FIFA WC 2022 even though some players didn’t want to do it.
BBC literally disrupted the coverage of one of the best opening ceremonies of the World Cup in Qatar just for virtue signaling.
but for World Cup 2026, the whole media is silent other than a few token articles here and there and Norway and Germany aren’t protesting anything when there’s so much to protest about 🤡
Nommé par la FIFA pour officier durant la Coupe du Monde, l'arbitre somalien 🇸🇴 Omar Artan s'est vu refuser l'entrée sur le territoire américain
Vu ses difficultés pour obtenir un visa, il avait bénéficié du soutien de l'ambassade somalienne de Nairobi qui lui a notamment permis d'avoir un passeport diplomatique
Insuffisant pour les autorités américaines qui l'ont immédiatement renvoyé...
Pour rappel, Artan a dirigé la finale retour de Ligue des Champions de l'an dernier entre Pyramids FC et Mamelodi Sundowns tout en étant élu meilleur arbitre africain 2025 par la CAF
The incompetent @FIFAWorldCup host, USA, is failing to fulfill its responsibilities properly.
We are guests of @FIFAcom, and it is FIFA’s responsibility to ensure that visas for all members are issued.

You have to be 16 to drive.
You have to be 18 to vote.
You have to be 21 to drink.
You have to be 25 to rent a car.
Why are teachers talking to our kids about sexuality at 12?
Why are kids encouraged to mutilate their bodies at 13?
This gender ideology madness needs to end.

Ni Ukweli Usiopingika kwamba WANAHARAKATI WANALIPWA….
hasa waliopo Nje ya nchi kwa huku kwetu na kuna foundations kibao tu za HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS karibu kila Nchi duniani kote….
ila Kwa yaliotokea Oct 29. haikuhusiana na Malipo haya wala msukumo wa wanaharakati…
Wananchi wenyewe tu walichoka… kuna raia waliandamana hata hawana SmartPhone… wengine hawapo hata mitandaoni…
Yaliotokea ni matunda ya Udhalimu wa Viongozi wetu….
Huwezi zuia chama kikuu cha Upinzani chama kinachoPendwa zaidi Tanzania nzima- KUTOSHIRIKI UCHAGUZI MKUU…
Umfunge Mgombea Urais wa Chama…anaependwa zaidi na Vijana…
Alafu u expect ZERO REACTION… HAIWEZEKANI!
Tusijifiche kwenye malipo ya FORD FOUNDATION…
Hawajaanza leo kulipwa… wanalipwa toka enzi… kila mtu analifaham hili… wanalipiwa RENT, CHAKULA na UPKEEP ZOTE na hata Kutoa Elimu, yale ma space nk. Ni kazi kama kazi zingine tu. Wengine wanaotaka kuongeza Elimu… wanapewa ufadhili!
Hili lipo wazi… na sijui kwa nn WANAHARAKATI wanalificha hili,hawataki lijulikane!
Ila haihusiani kivyovyote vile na yaliotokea Oct 29th.
Tuliweke hili sawa!
@EsirEid Zipo Taasisi nyingi ulimwenguni zinazowezesha shughuli Mbalimbali mfano vita dhidi ya madawa ya kulevya, utunzaji wa Mazingira, mapambano dhidi ya ukimwi, demokrasia, human right nk.
October 29 haikutokana na malipo kwa wanaharakati wala waandamanaji.
@EsirEid Kwahiyo Tweet Ya KIKATUNI Ilikua Sahihi Lakini Hakuitoa Kwa Muda Sahihi Na Wazito Wakaitumia Kuwaadhibu WANAHARAKATI Huku Wao Wakikwepa UWAJIBIKAJI Swali La Msingi Madenge Alikua Kazini Au Hakua Kazini? Ukituliza Fuvu Utagundua Madenge Alikua Kazini Na Alivuta Mpunga Mzito Sana.
Nimechunguza maeneo mengi nchini ambako zimewekwa taa za solar hasa za barabarani au kwenye miundombinu ya umma, baada ya muda taa nyingi huacha kufanya kazi kabisa, na kiza hurudi tena kama kawaida.
Sasa najiuliza,shida iko kwenye mfumo wa solar wenyewe, utekelezaji wa miradi ya “ujanja ujanja”, au tatizo ni kushindwa kufanya maintenance ya vifaa hivyo? 🤔 shida ni nini.?
TAARIFA KWA UMMA
Kituo cha Sheria na Haki za Binadamu (LHRC) tunalaani na kupinga vikali kurejea kwa kasi kwa matukio yenye sura ya utekaji nchini, kwani ni tishio kwa uhuru wa raia, usalama wa wananchi pamoja na utawala wa sheria.

Nyota wa zamani wa Manchester United na timu ya taifa ya England, Rio Ferdinand amesema hajafika Tanzania kufanya siasa bali kusaidia kuhamasisha vijana kupitia mchezo wa soka.
Ferdinand ametoa kauli hiyo leo Mei 22,2026 baada ya kuwepo kwa mijadala mbalimbali kuhusu ziara yake nchini, akisema hawezi kuzuiwa kuitembelea Afrika wala kuambiwa nini afanye.
“Mimi si mwanasiasa na sijaja kuzungumzia siasa. Nimekuja kuhamasisha vijana kupitia soka,” alisema Ferdinand
