Nine members of the Eritrean National Football team, including the head coach Mr Omer Ahmed and team captain Haile Goitom abandon the dictatorial regime in Eritrea seeking political asylum in Kenya.
Two of them confirmed to demo.archive.assenna.com on the phone about their decision not to go back home to Eritrea. Samson was not able to continue his conversation, while another player who didn’t consent his name to be made public said “the endless national service, extreme repression and lack of freedom” was the main reason for his decision.
The Eritrean National Football team has been to Kenya to participate in the regional annual Cecafa competition.
Although the regime tried its best to minimize defection by calling many Eritrean semi and non professional players from abroad into the team, it couldn’t escape the embarrassment it faced for several times.
Two of the payers have been in hiding before the completion of the tournament, while the remaining 7 have just followed them.
12 members of the Eritrean national team have defected last year in Uganda, after participating in similar regional tournament. Almost all Red Sea football club players have also done the same prior to that.

Any one who knows Eritrea truly, they know there is no future so it is easy to make decision to seek for asylum . And there is things that bad PFDJ that they forget to know about , they was thinking those whom they live in Sudan they need to play for them(PFDJ) not their country Eritrea but they were staying like this opportunity to get better life to western countries as asylum seekers.
Now, every one become smarter than you SHABEYA and every one know you that you are not working for Eritrea but you are working for your self….
I WISH FOR THEM BEST LIFE AND FUTURE!!!!!

dafla, i agree with you 100%. There will be no Eritrea. Eritrea was created by the Italian and now it will be destroyed by Demhit. Demhits are in Eritrea with mission and that is to clam back their land. Isaias and Demhit will clean out all the Eritrean that do not know their history from the land.

We Eritreans are down, but not out. Make no mistake. We will be back with a vengeance! Our unity is the key.
God bless our country and our people!

Good for the footballers in the free West. But it is too late for Eritrea. When you sell your own sisters and daughters to the savage and illiterate to Arab slavery, and some idiot burn Eritrean languages to pretend the Arabs, the game is over.
Only people who have a good sense of respect to themselves can be a worthy nation.
Eritrea died long ago.

Kennedy, thank you for the information below:

if you remember last time i was angry when i replied to you or to one of the commentators when he claimed Mr. Omer Ahmed (Omaro) was a colonel ,,,because i know Omaro personally he is a very polite guy and a professional coach he was my coach and he has been a coach to Scandinavian …..the only reason for The Dictator to send him to Kenya is because Mr. Omer was in Germany for six months for Training(Coaching training) and he came back to Eritrea…..so he was expecting to come back again but Mr. Omer proved a proverb which says” Fool me one shame on you, fool me twice shame on ME!””’

coach Omer Ahmed and the team, congratulations
you liberate yourself to freedom, thus enjoy the fruit and breathe the fresh air not suffocated with spies and the rest scrap security personnel!
You all born and live once on this world, enjoy the rest without even thinking about the captive life you have had, of course, nightmare,hallucinations that you were exposed to for years.
Weren’t you suspected in all your moves….feel free then and enjoy it 110% of your God given rights.

mostly coming from a different places that’s correct, but there is a cache to it meaning they carry Eritrean passport, now the best way to get a asylum somewhere I was like in the West Australia Canada, it’s easy way to get it from Kenya. so now they got an axis to on those places. I asked the same question, that’s how it’s being explained to me, well I say welcome to the new slavery, the modern one , at least they not want to deal with dictator. either way with slice it they all disappear.united against dictator.
