 Somali World Cup Referee Denied Entry to United States Award-winning Somali referee, Omar Artan, has been denied entry into the United States despite holding a valid visa, according to a senior official in Somalia’s sports ministry. Artan, who is set to become the first Somali referee to officiate at the FIFA World Cup finals, was stopped at Miami International Airport and subsequently returned to Istanbul, where he had been residing. The reason for the denial was not immediately disclosed. However, Somalia is among the countries affected by a travel ban introduced by the administration of Donald Trump. Reacting to the development, Ciise Aden Abshir, a senior adviser to Somalia’s Ministry of Youth and Sports and a former national team captain, described Artan as one of Africa’s most respected referees. “Omar Artan is among Africa’s most respected referees and deserves the support of the entire football community,” Abshir told AFP on Monday.

 Kaduna Govt Sets Records Straight On Zidane's Trial, Dismisses Social Media Misinformation 


The Kaduna State Government has dismissed as false and misleading the narratives circulating on social media over the conviction of Victor Solomon, popularly known as Zidane, insisting that the judicial process was transparent, lawful and grounded strictly in evidence.


Addressing public speculation surrounding the judgment delivered on January 6, 2026, the Honourable Attorney-General and Commissioner of Justice, Sir James A. Kanyip, KSM, PhD, clarified that Solomon faced two separate criminal trials, before two different High Courts, over distinct offences involving different victims.


“There is no contradiction in the court outcomes being referenced online. Victor Solomon was tried in two completely different cases. He was acquitted in one in 2024, but lawfully convicted in another in 2026 based on the evidence before the court,” Kanyip stated.


The Attorney-General explained that the first case — Charge No. KDH/KAD/73C/2020 — which bordered on criminal conspiracy and attempted culpable homicide, ended with Solomon’s discharge and acquittal on May 21, 2024.


However, the second case — Charge No. KDH/KAD/78C/2020 — involved graver offences including criminal conspiracy, grievous harm without provocation and culpable homicide punishable with death. That trial was concluded in October 2025, culminating in Solomon’s conviction and sentence to death by hanging on January 6, 2026.


“The conviction was not arbitrary or politically motivated. It followed due process, full trial and judicial evaluation of facts and evidence,” Kanyip stressed, noting that the defendant retains the constitutional right to appeal up to the Supreme Court.


Reacting to the growing online commentary, the Commissioner for Information, Malam Ahmed Maiyaki, warned that misinformation surrounding sensitive judicial matters poses a threat to public order.


“The deliberate spread of half-truths and false claims around court judgments is dangerous. It risks inflaming passions and creating unnecessary tension. Kaduna residents must verify information before sharing it,” Maiyaki cautioned.


The Kaduna State Government reaffirmed that under the administration of Governor Uba Sani, CON, governance will continue to be anchored on the rule of law, fairness and inclusivity, assuring citizens that justice in Kaduna State will always be pursued transparently and without prejudice.
