@Stghfuo. I thought the story was a joke, because that picture looks ext like our dear Stghfuo.
Fvcken American Aryan Caucasian rascals who's favourite past time is to show disrespect to Africans.
@FRANKIE. Please do Africans respect each other?
@frankie most Somalians don’t claim to be Africans, they claim arabos so I wasn’t surprised about his refusal
He was refused not because of your "most" stereotype, but because he is a Moslem, and as you know, a Moslem is automaticaaly a terrorist, a criminal in the United States.
What is wrong with the Headline. Perhaps you have to go back to primary school.
The referee was granted visa but upon arrival in the US, he was denied entry and deported back to Turkey.
AFRICA IS JUST SIMPLY WEEK. The b ...

@ Alhassan Mohammed, did you read the story??? How different is the story from the headline!?!? Was the man not denied entry into the US!?!?!? Don’t mislead people
Alhassan and Paa pee, you are fools. The headline said "Africa's top referee". When was he voted Africa's best? Where? On what occasion?
The headline should have just referred to him as "one of Africa's WorlCup-bound referee ...

Correction: NOT Alhassan Mohammed, but ALHASSAN HAVE YOU READ THE STORY and Paa K the idiots.
You called me a fool and I have not even commented on this story.
It's not misleading. One can have a visa and travel to another country, but the the immigration authorities at the point of entry can deny one entry. Once that action is taken, the traveler then has to depart the country from ...

Ethnic Somalis, Bantus, pure negroids and very minority Arabs make up Somalia. Ihan calls herself African, not Arab. The fact that you spin so does not make it so.

America is at war FIFA should stop the world cup
@ Jimi Jimi : If Africa has some steel, we should have boycotted the impending World Cup tournament due to the misbehaviours of both Trump USA and FIFA.
Can you please tell me/us the misbehavior of Trump and USA?
Why is FIFA so weak when it comes to USA? Why is FIFA allowing discrimination in world football? How cruel this monster Trump administration is?
Who asked you to go there? Did someone chase you with AK 47 to go there?.
Infantino,the FIFA chairman is a friend of Trump. He awarded Trump FIFA's unrecognised peace award .He will do everything to please Trump.
RACISTS COCOONS..

Those Trump voters had no idea that he's a diehard con man whose terrible policies will end up negatively impacting them. Most are now having voters' remorse, but it's a little too late. And that corrupt Nazi MAGA-FOOL Trump ...

Why host world cup when you won't allow even the class A fifa badge referee who has been chosen to officiate matches.... what kind of nonsense is this.....then ordinary supporters should never go near...

This is a harsh behavior by the Trump administration. This should never happen. FIFA should sanction the US football federation. This should not stand.
I think this is all FIFA's fault knowing the challenges with the US immigration.
Bontsea!! )k3 fa Turkey y3 d3n?
Some racist and idiotic US immigration officials are just pathetic. How do you deny entry to FIFA referee appointed to officiate matche(s) in a tournament your country is hosting? Makes no sense at all!!!!
I urge FIFA to appoint the Somalia referee to officiate US first match!
somalians are like south africans. In their case, they say they're not Black. Let him fight his own battle.
If Somalians say they are not black, what are they?
FIFA made a COLOSSAL mistake by including the USA in the host nations.
There a thousands of Somalis in North America, so why deny one of Africa's best referees the chance to represent Africa and the black world. Ironically none of the 10 African teams protested. Poor Africa.
