Ghanaian referee Daniel Nii Laryea has reportedly had his Instagram account blocked by a large number of Nigerians following his officiating in the #AFCON25 semi-final clash between Nigeria and Morocco.
The backlash comes after several controversial decisions during the match, which many fans and analysts believe unfairly favoured Morocco. Social media users expressed outrage over what they described as biased officiating, criticizing key calls that they claim affected the Super Eagles’ performance and chances of advancing.
While some supporters called for calm and respect for referees, a significant portion of Nigerians took to online platforms to vent their frustration, targeting Laryea’s social media presence in the process.
The incident has reignited debates about refereeing standards in African football and the impact of controversial officiating on national pride and fan sentiment.
