So basically now we have America accusing China of using slaves to pick cotton, Japanese saying China is populist and militarist, Canadians saying China oppresses indigenous people, and Indians saying China has a caste system. So basically China is a mirror.

The quickest way to realize we are not as clever as we think is to read someone who lived 200 years ago.

Dear South Africans, Find one post where I support illegal immigration into your country and I’ll send you $1,000. Not one. My issue has never been illegal immigration. My issue is why fellow Africans seem to attract a level of anger, humiliation and violence that others often don’t. That’s the conversation many of you keep avoiding.

I do not know why Gayton McKenzie speaks so confidently about things he clearly does not understand. It is embarrassing when a cabinet minister appears unaware of how diplomatic passports work. A diplomatic passport is not reserved exclusively for diplomats, ambassadors or presidents. Around the world, governments have often issued diplomatic passports to individuals who have brought distinction, honour and international recognition to their countries. Outstanding athletes, artists, musicians, cultural icons, business leaders and other distinguished citizens have, on occasion, been granted diplomatic passports or equivalent travel privileges in recognition of their contributions to the nation. In the case of Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan, the Somali government confirmed that it issued him a diplomatic passport to facilitate his travel to the FIFA World Cup after he became one of Africa’s most celebrated referees and was named CAF Men’s Referee of the Year for 2025. Somali officials have publicly stated that the passport was issued because of his historic achievement and to assist him in representing Somalia on the global stage. Artan became the first Somali ever selected to officiate at a FIFA World Cup and has been widely recognised as one of Africa’s top match officials. His achievements have put Somalia on the international football map and inspired millions of young Africans. What is worrying is not that Gayton McKenzie got it wrong. Everyone makes mistakes. What is worrying is that he chose to speak with such certainty about a subject he clearly had not taken the time to understand. Ministers have a responsibility to be informed before making public pronouncements, particularly on matters involving diplomacy and international affairs. A little research would have shown him that diplomatic passports are sometimes awarded as a national honour and a practical tool to assist distinguished citizens representing their countries abroad. That is not unique to Somalia, and it is certainly not unique to Africa. Diplomatic passports have been issued to many people who are not politicians or career diplomats. For example, boxing legend Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines, football stars Didier Drogba of Ivory Coast and Samuel Eto’o of Cameroon, musician Youssou N’Dour of Senegal, long-distance running icon Haile Gebrselassie of Ethiopia, and now Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan have all been granted diplomatic passports or diplomatic status by their governments. The suggestion that only politicians or diplomats can be issued diplomatic passports is therefore incorrect. I have noticed a certain interesting trend with Gayton McKenzie. Most of the time when the American government makes a mistake, he comes out to defend it. I wonder why he does that. From the issue of visas to the political standoff between South Africa and the United States, he has consistently appeared to side with America, even in instances where many believe it is wrong. It is a pattern that is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.

“My story is not a pleasant one; it is neither sweet nor harmonious, as invented stories are; it has the taste of nonsense and chaos, of madness and dreams — like the lives of all men who stop deceiving themselves.” – Hermann Hesse

The people of Alego have made a decision. No World Cup in our homes. Not this time. A Somali referee was denied entry to the United States to officiate at the biggest football tournament on earth. Not because of anything he did. Because of where he comes from and what he looks like. That is discrimination. Plain and simple. We stand with our Somali brother. If every African household makes the same decision the numbers will speak for themselves. Broadcasting rights are sold on viewership. Advertisers pay for eyeballs. Remove the eyeballs and the money conversation changes very quickly. We are urging everyone to join Alego. Switch off. Make the statement. Let the world know that African solidarity is not just a slogan. The beautiful game deserves better than a host that picks and chooses who is welcome based on where they come from. Alego has decided. Have you?

We need a World Cup in China during our lifetime

The only mistake Omar Abdulkadir made was not putting his name on the Epstein list.

FIFA's Fan Hitter is like no other, it is gathering pace daily, hourly even, Infantino has created a new global spectator sport: The Collapse of the Reputation of World Cup football. .... And it's Live.....

All nations must walk out of the World Cup until that referee is returned to officiate the first game! Red card to racism …

I am telling you, every single team should pack up and leave. Stop sportswashing fascism.

If Russia is banned from the World Cup for attacking Ukraine, why isn’t the United States banned for attacking Iran?

I am not watching the world cup. It's been tainted by racism, discrimination, bigotry and chauvinism.

Its fun how the xenophobes of South Africa 🇿🇦 are complaining of mistreatment of this referee. Yesterday they beating black people because they are too dark in their eyes

This is NOT about ‘security’ - it’s about Dominance‼️ It’s about Power‼️ It’s about Control‼️ It’s about Forced Compliance‼️ It’s about Obedience‼️ It’s means of Non-Military Aggression‼️ ….

If not that our leaders are clowns, we would have seen a unified African response by now. A total boycott is the only language they understand. If FIFA and the US hosts cannot guarantee the basic dignity and security of our teams, African football should say goodbye and walk out entirely.

If I were the USA, I’d deny all countries visas and then declare myself world champion without playing since FIFA can’t intervene or do anything.

Kenya was accepting Ebola affected victims from USA while the said USA is denying VISA to African teams & referees?
