 Dutch referee Rob Dieperink dies weeks after removal from World Cup officiating list Dutch referee Rob Dieperink has died at the age of 38, weeks after FIFA removed him from its list of officials for the World Cup. The Dutch Football Association (KNVB) confirmed his death in a statement, saying it was “shocked and deeply saddened” by the news. His cause of death has not been disclosed. Dieperink was arrested in April by the Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom following a report of an alleged sexual assault involving a teenage boy in London.

JULIUS ABURE LED LABOUR PARTY FACTION REJECTS NENADI USMAN'S ELECTION. (PHOTO).


 Julius Abure led Labour Party  Faction Rejects Nenadi Usman’s Election


The Labour Party has been plunged into deeper crisis following the emergence of Senator Nenadi Esther Usman as the new national chairperson, alongside Darlington Nwokocha as national secretary, during a stakeholders meeting in Umuahia, Abia State. However, a faction of the party led by Julius Abure has rejected the outcome of the meeting, describing it as “illegal and unconstitutional”.


The faction, in a press release signed by National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Obiora Ifoh, argued that the meeting was not recognized by the party’s constitution, the Electoral Act, or the Nigerian Constitution. They claimed that the meeting was not an organ of the party, as it was not listed in the party’s constitution.


The faction also challenged Governor Alex Otti to produce official correspondence from INEC regarding objections to the party’s national convention, stating that no such communication existed. They questioned the legitimacy of the caretaker committee set up by the governor, pointing out that its chairman was not a registered member of the party.


This development comes after Senator Usman’s election was seen as a move to resolve the internal crisis within the party. However, the rejection of the outcome by the faction has further deepened the crisis, leaving the party’s leadership in uncertainty.


The faction emphasized that there was no vacuum in the party’s leadership and rejected the outcome of the Umuahia meeting, describing it as a “charade” and a waste of resources. The party’s national leadership remains uncertain, with both factions claiming legitimacy.
