The NFF, as reported by BSNSports.com.ng, has announced the expulsion of the referee overseeing the NNL match between Jigawa Golden Stars and Sporting Supreme, Zaharadeem Nasiru, along with his assistant, Usman Auwalu.
This decision follows a controversial goal awarded against the visiting team, where a player from the home team scored with his hand. The incident, captured in a viral video, has sparked widespread debate and criticism both locally and internationally, leading to calls for their removal from officiating duties.
The referees have been expelled not only from the NNL but also from officiating in any capacity within the country, due to the detrimental impact their officiating had on the integrity of the game.
