Lol. Google 'DRC 2007 moratarium on Dual Citizenship'. Even DRC current president is a Belgian citizen.

Meanwhile I've said it before that FIFA won't debate how DRC inteprets and enforces its law.

He is a Belgian citizen. Do proper research. Not AI.

I don't know what you saying. A political party candidate's got saved by the highest court in Congo because there was no evidence of dual citizenship.


This happened 2 years ago and you're quoting 2007..

READ BELOW

The Democratic Republic of Congo’s top court on Monday threw out a suit seeking to bar opposition politician Moise Katumbi from running for president on the grounds that he was not Congolese.

The wealthy businessman, whose father was Italian, is considered one of the most serious challengers to incumbent President Felix Tshisekedi, who is seeking a second term in office.

The case was brought against Katumbi by his fellow presidential candidate, Noel Tshiani, who argued that he did not have Congolese nationality.

Dual nationality is not recognised under Congolese law.

But during proceedings, Katumbi’s lawyer argued that there was no proof his client held any nationality other than Congolese.

The Constitutional Court ruled that Tshiani's suit was "unfounded".

Tsiani is also the initiator of a draft law that, if passed, would allow only citizens whose parents were both Congolese to hold high political office.

Katumbi was once an ally of Tshisikedi, but left the coalition earlier this year, fuelling suspicions that the proposed law targeted him.

opes:
The 2007 moratorium was to suspend punishment for those who had dual citizenship, not to suspend the dual citizenship law.

Make u dey deceive yourself. Leave matter for FIFA

Lookman's goal is superb. Nigeria doesn't score those kinds of goals.

Jeff lied yesterday. In 2018, one opposition leader was denied the chance to contest DRC Congo presidential election and same thing almost happened in 2024. Jeff said it was suspended in 2017 but that part of constitution is still in force.

Even if you Google it, you won't see the news anywhere that it was suspended. Those soccer Africa crew members hate Nigeria with passion

Watching the Zimbabwe game at Afcon. If Nigeria couldn’t beat Zimbabwe home and away. Then Nigeria 🇳🇬 honestly don’t deserve a World Cup ticket . Seeing Angola peeling v Zimbabwe easily hahaha is hilarious

Case Details:

Nigeria's Claim: The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) argued that the player in question did not meet specific eligibility criteria, primarily focusing on DR Congo's domestic law which does not recognize dual citizenship. Nigeria alleged that FIFA was deceived during the clearance process, as some players held European passports in addition to their Congolese ones.FIFA's Ruling: After a thorough review of the evidence and player registration records, FIFA concluded that DR Congo had complied with all of its regulatory requirements. FIFA evaluates player eligibility based on its own sporting nationality rules, not a country's domestic constitutional law, and the players in question had been cleared by FIFA prior to the match.Outcome: Nigeria will not be awarded points or a replay of the match, and the result, which saw DR Congo win on penalties after a 1-1 draw in full time, stands. 

This ruling is considered final, and NO further appeals are expected.
