A World Cup of chaos!
"Omar Artan is the number one referee from Africa. He will not be allowed to officiate at the World Cup.
Artan, from Somalia, flew into Miami to join up with the other 51 referees. After what he says was an 11-hour grilling by immigration officials, he was put back on a plane."

Sports World: Absolute madness. History will judge this moment as an embarrassment and disrespect to the tournament.
Iyk: Mumu Kenneth Okonkwo, Cho Cho !!!
Comfort Yako Asala: It's unfortunate that a world body like FIFA has no say over it's affairs and activities. Despite saying that they have no say on immigration processes, Artan deserves to officiate at the world cup as every other referee.
Besides, there's no report that he has a criminal record 😔.
