 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. Police later said that after reviewing available evidence, including CCTV footage and digital devices, the investigation had concluded that “the evidential threshold had not been met” and no further action would be taken.

OBI, LAWMAKERS, OBIDIENTS SET TO DEFECT TO ADC ON WEDNESDAY. (PHOTO).

 Obi, lawmakers, Obidients set to defect to ADC on Wednesday


Nigeria’s political landscape ahead of the 2027 general elections is poised for a reshaping, as the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, Peter Obi, is set to join the African Democratic Congress (ADC) on 31st December 2025 in Enugu.


The development would put to rest months of speculation about where Obi would pitch his tent in the coming elections. Obi would be defecting with serving Senators and other lawmakers produced on the platform of the LP, as well as remnants of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the southeast region.

The Guardian gathered that Obi would be defecting alongside the Senator representing Anambra Central, Victor Umeh; that of Anambra North, Tony Nwoye; Abia South, Enyinnaya Abaribe; PDP chieftain Ben Obi; and members of the Obidient movement in the region. It is not clear if the Abia State governor, Alex Otti, is part of the movement into the ADC.


The governor was recently approached by the PDP to join the party and recontest his current position in 2027.

Spokesperson for Obi, Val Obienyim, confirmed the defection of his boss to the ADC. “Yes, it is true,” he told The Guardian in a text message on Sunday morning.

But Umeh had, however, told The Guardian that the event would hold in Enugu, adding that it would involve all supporters of Obi across the southeast region.


“They will come from Abia, Anambra, Imo and Ebonyi states to join those in Enugu, where this exercise will hold on 31st December,” he added.

Sources hinted that Obi, who has not hidden his intention to appear on the ballot in 2027, would contest the presidential ticket of the ADC.

Elder statesman, Chief Chekwas Okorie, while speaking to The Guardian, stated that the expected formal defection of Obi to the ADC was a healthy development that could reshape the thinking and permutations of the 2027 general elections.


“I imagine that he would be defecting along with most of his associates and followers. I believe that a fortified and strong ADC will add value to the opposition and assuage the general fear of a possible one-party option to Nigerians come 2027. The APC, ADC and possibly the PDP locking horns in the 2027 democratic encounter promises a vibrant and robust electioneering campaign that will provide Nigerians the required options to make informed choices in electing their preferred leaders at all levels. I imagine that the APC leadership will return to the drawing table to map out the strategy to confront the emerging challenge. Nigerians are in interesting times,” Okorie stated.


National President of Njiko Igbo Forum (NIF), Rev Okechukwu Obioha, said they would support Obi to ensure he reaches the pinnacle of his political career. He, however, cautioned that the ADC should not compromise merit and integrity in the choice of its presidential candidate, stressing that Obi remains the “hope for the restoration of the country on the path of greatness.”
