NLO One Suspends Referee Akinyemi Olaniran And Orders Yewa FC Versus Juvenile FC Match Replay

Posted : 08 June 2026

The Nationwide League One secretariat has announced the immediate suspension of match official Akinyemi Olaniran from handling further games in the division. This disciplinary action follows an influx of official complaints regarding his poor refereeing standards during the current third-tier league campaign.

League organizers confirmed the decision after conducting an official review of multiple complaints lodged by affected clubs. The controversial incidents occurred primarily during competitive lower-league fixtures held at the designated Abeokuta Centre.

According to an official statement from the NLO hierarchy, Olaniran’s officiating during the match between Yewa FC and Juvenile FC fell far below the expected standard; his handling of an earlier encounter between Best Talents FC and Yewa FC also generated serious administrative concerns.

As a direct consequence of these technical failures, the league governing body has declared the initial result null and void. They have ordered a mandatory, full replay of the fixture between Yewa FC and Juvenile FC to ensure a sporting outcome.

The NLO leadership emphasized that these strict punitive measures were necessary to protect the integrity of the grassroots game; they remain committed to upholding fairness, transparency, and high officiating standards across all national centers.
