Just In:Libya Authority Finally Releases Nigerian Players, Finally Makes Way To Nigeria
After more than 14 hours of being detained at Al Abraq International Airport, the Libyan government has finally succumbed to pressure from various quarters and cleared the Nigerian flight to bring the players and officials back home.
This was disclosed in a post by sports journalist Adepoju Tobi Samuel, popularly known as OgaNlaMedia.
He said: “After pressure from several quarters, the Libyan government has agreed to issue clearance for ValueJet Airline to fly and sell aviation fuel to the airline.
“They came with a gimmick to issue a pre-clearance to land in Benghazi first before we fly to Nigeria. The same Benghazi that was busy yesterday.
The NFF has insisted that the clearance from Al-Abraq airport must be for the team to fly directly to Nigeria.”
