Captain of the Libyan team Faisal Al-Badri raised alarm on the team’s plight in Nigeria upon arrival , saying they were left all on their own at the airport in Port Harcourt, before the trip to Uyo via buses that were not air conditioned late into the night without police escorts.
His allegations were rejected by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) who made it clear in a statement that his claims are all false, as they provided all the required logistics required of a host country by CAF, however the change of plans by the visitors who flew in a private jet led to the confusion that trailed their arrival.
Despite their explanation, the media in Libya is awash with stories demanding the FA to ensure that the Super Eagles have a hell of time in the country, when they arrived for Tuesday’s reverse tie in Benghazi.
