Peter Waweru, AFCON Referee Running Techniques Goes Viral (Video) by GODWINLOWSKI: 3:19pm On Jan 21, 2022 |
A 'DRAMATIC' Africa Cup of Nations referee stole the show in Nigeria's win over Guinea-Bissau. Kenyan official Peter Waweru Kamaku had fans on Twitter in stitches for his mad sprinting and hand gestures. Referencing Tom Hanks' 1994 movie classic Forrest Gump, one wrote: "Run Forrest run." Another joked: "This man is running like he's chasing a taxi." One added: "Is that Tom cruise in mission impossible." Reacting to Waweru blew the final whistle, a fan posted: "What a dramatic referee!" Goals from forward Umar Sadiq and defender William Troost-Ekong saw Nigeria qualify from their group with three wins and all nine points. But Waweru's refereeing clearly had a lasting impact on fans watching the game. Off the field, according to Wikipedia, the official graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Computer Science in university. That was before also achieving a master of Science in Pure Mathematics. Since 2019, Waweru has served as a senior lecturer at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology. But in 2011 he started refereeing and by 2017 was listed as a Fifa official. https://feedlily.com/afcon-ref-leaves-viewers-in-stitches-with-incredible-sprint-during-nigeria-win https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5BzLb3OUEg 22 Likes 2 Shares

If he was younger, he would achieve fame and fortune as a 400m athlete. Those legs, the strides would fetch lots of medals. 188 Likes 5 Shares |
