According to Footynaija, the person who was accused of assaulting a match official following Sunday’s Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) match between Kano Pillars and Warri Wolves is currently being held by the police.
The event occurred at Southern Delta University Stadium in Ozoro on Sunday, and according to sources, the culprit has been identified as Ken.
Warri Wolves have insisted that their security measures were sufficient throughout the match, and that the altercation took place outside the stadium following the referee’s change and departure.
Afterward, the Seasiders allegedly stepped in, administered first aid, and made sure the wounded official got more medical treatment.
But they demanded an open inquiry, a fair hearing, and retribution for the guilty party.
No statement on the incident has been issued by the NPFL as of yet.
