NNL: Hammer falls on Ref Nyah Victor of Akwa Ibom State over poor officiating

Following his award of questionable penalty in an NNL match involving Rovers FC and Ekiti United in Calabar, the NFF Referring Committee has stepped down indefinitely Nyah Victor of Akwa Ibom State Referring Council from all league matches and other matches.
In a letter to that effect signed by the Committee’s Chairman Mohammed Ameenu and sent to him through the Akwa Ibom State FA and copied to the President of NFF, the Secretary General and the NNL Chairman, the committee noted that the unjustified penalty was not in line with the provisions of the Laws of the Game.
“Our investigation discovered that you awarded an unjustified penalty in the match between Rovers FC and Ekiti United. Your action did not only negatively affect the outcome of the match but equally brings the game to
disrepute.
“In view of this, you have been indefinitely stepped down from all league matches and other matches”, concludes the statement.
