 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. A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said officers responded on April 9 to a report of sexual assault at an address in Croydon and arrested a man in his 30s on suspicion of the offence.

NYSC MEMBERS EXPRESS OUTRAGE OVER UNPAID N77,000 ALLOWANCE.(PHOTO).



Members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) are fuming over the Federal Government's failure to implement the payment of the increased monthly allowance of N77,000. Despite the government's approval of the allowance increase from N33,000 to N77,000 in July 2024, corps members are yet to receive the new amount.


The Director-General of the NYSC, Brig. Gen. Yushau Ahmed, had attributed the delay to the non-release of funds. However, corps members are growing increasingly frustrated with the government's broken promises. Many reported receiving only N33,000 for their February allowance, sparking widespread disappointment and anger.


A corps member serving in Abia State, who spoke on condition of anonymity, lamented the insincerity of the Federal Government regarding the payment of the N77,000 allowance. "The N33,000 is not enough for us. We have to handle accommodation and feeding ourselves, and the economic situation of the country is not new to anybody," she said.


Other corps members serving in Osun and Lagos expressed similar dissatisfaction, citing the insufficient allowance and the government's unfulfilled promises. "I don't know how they expect us to survive on N33,000 when there is so much hardship," said a corps member serving in Lagos.


The NYSC Director of Communication, Carol Embu, was unreachable for comment, but a senior NYSC official confirmed that the scheme had yet to commence payment of the N77,000 allowance.
