HOW I WAS SLAPPED, ASSAULTED BY STORMERS SC GENERAL MANAGER, MR. LEKAN KELANI. It was a horrific experience during our FA Cup clash against NNL side Stormers SC at the MKO Abiola Stadium today. Throughout the match, several provocative incidents occurred, but one stood out as particularly shocking. At a crucial moment, the referee issued a second yellow card to a Stormers SC player and correctly followed it up with a red card. However, after intense pressure and discussions from Stormers SC officials on the touchline, the referee inexplicably overturned his decision, despite having confirmed it twice before issuing the red card. Another disturbing incident unfolded in the closing minutes of the game, when the Stormers SC coach aggressively confronted the assistant referee and went as far as slapping him. He was shown a red card. The match eventually ended 3–2 in favor of Stormers SC, but what followed after the final whistle was even more alarming. Stormers SC players began chasing and physically intimidating our players, most of whom are under 17 years old. Seeing my team, especially my captain, being manhandled, As the Media Officer, I rushed onto the pitch to protect them. I also attempted to record one of the Stormers SC players, who was being restrained, to prevent him from attacking one of our players. In the midst of the chaos, I was suddenly slapped from behind by the General Manager of Stormers SC, Lekan Kelani. My phone was knocked out of my hand and smashed to the ground, thankfully, only the screen guard was damaged. The situation escalated further as he charged at me again, grabbed my trousers as if I were a criminal, and held onto me for several minutes. During this time, some Stormers SC players also threatened to beat me for trying to break free from their GM. I eventually managed to break free but had to be escorted out of the stadium for my safety. It was only after I got outside that I realized I had lost some of my personal belongings, including my face cap and EarPod. Violence has no place in football. Incidents like this tarnish the spirit of the game and endanger lives. Individuals like Mr. Lekan Kelani should have no place in our football if the sport is to grow with integrity, safety, and respect. I am calling on the Ogun State FA, the NFF, and all passionate supporters of the game to speak up and take decisive action. This injustice must not be allowed to slide. The NFF 🇳🇬 Man of Letters.
