The Libyan Football Federation has reacted after holding Nigeria’s Super Eagles hostage in the country for over 15 hours.

Libyan FA said it is deeply concerned by the development.

Recall that Super Eagles players and officials are currently stranded at the Al Abaq Airport several hours after arriving the North African country for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matchday 4 encounter against the Mediterranean Knights.

The Nigerian contingent was initially scheduled to land in Benghazi before the plane was diverted to another destination.

The team passed the night at the airport with no access to water or food.

They were also denied access to hotel accommodation by their hosts.

“We are deeply concerned about the recent reports surrounding the diversion of the Nigerian national team’s flight ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Libya,” the Libya FA said in a statement on Monday.

“While we regret any inconvenience caused, it is essential to note that such incidents can occur due to routine air traffic control protocols, security checks, or logistical challenges that affect international air travel.

“There are standard procedures at airports worldwide, and delays or rerouting, though unfortunate, are not uncommon.

“We have the utmost respect for our Nigerian counterparts and want to reassure them that the diversion of their flight was not intentional.

“There are no grounds to accuse the Libyan security teams or the Libyan Football Federation of deliberately orchestrating this incident. Such actions are inconsistent with our values and principles.”
