In an unprecedented move, Nigeria’s Super Eagles have withdrawn from Tuesday’s crucial AFCON qualifying match against Libya, citing “threats to life” and “hostilities” from the host country since their arrival on Sunday evening.
Team captain expressed grave concerns for the safety of the players, saying, “We cannot play under such threatening conditions. Our lives are at risk.”
The Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) is expected to issue a formal statement as the team’s sudden exit raises questions about the future of the qualifiers and the security protocols in international matches.
