FCB Nyasa Big Bullets bosses fired back after their star player got attacked during a heated match against Ekhaya FC. Video footage caught Ekhaya defender Elias Missi choking and kicking Bullets forward Babatunde Adepoju right on the field. The referee watched everything happen but did absolutely nothing about the brutal assault. Club officials say this kind of violence keeps happening and nobody does anything to stop it. Team leaders are fed up with players getting hurt during games.
CEO Albert Chigoga blasted the incident and called it proof that something is seriously wrong with league management. He said the club always tells players and fans to stay peaceful but their patience is running out fast. Chigoga pointed out that similar attacks happened with other teams like Creck Sporting Club and Mafco FC. The violence keeps getting worse even though officials promise to fix things. League bosses need to step up and protect players before someone gets badly injured.
The team plans to file official complaints with the Super League of Malawi and the Referees Association about the incident. Chigoga warned that stronger action might follow if nothing changes soon. Ironically Adepoju scored the winning goal after getting attacked and helped Bullets stay at the top of the league. The CEO made it clear that winning games does not make up for unsafe playing conditions. Players should not have to fear getting assaulted just for doing their jobs.
