A terrible story unfolds between Libya and Nigeriawith the football “vendetta” being a given and flaring up for good!
The Nigerians footballers arriving in Libya to play and the away match against their opponents in the qualifiers for the Africa Cup of Nations “stuck” for 16 hours at the airport without water or food.
In fact, there was only one mini-van which of course could not serve all members of the team mission.
After that there are intense thoughts about boycott to the scheduled match on Tuesday and an immediate return back to Nigeria!
A few days earlier, the corresponding national team of Libya he complained his inexplicable stay at the airport Hare for several hours, in order to carry out a check on the belongings of the members of the mission.
