Super Eagles of Nigeria striker Victor Boniface took to X early Monday, October 14, to lament over the treatment received in Libya.
He expressed dissatisfaction with how he and his teammates were treated by Libyan authorities.
He wrote: "Been at the airport for almost 13 hours no food no wifi no where to sleep . African we can do better @caf."
He also called on the Confederation of Africa Football (CAF) to interfere in their delay.
On Sunday, October 13, Libyan officials made good on their threat to mishandle the Super Eagles and the Nigerian delegation ahead of the return qualifying encounter in Benina.
The plane that was supposed to take the Nigerian team to Benghazi was diverted to a different city, two hours drive away, leaving the players stranded at the Al Abraq airport for hours.
The players and their agents were kept inside the airport's arrival hall for several hours and were not allowed to leave.
A video released on Sunday showed the Nigerian players and officials trying to resolve the issue at the airport in the North African country.
The Super Eagles will take on the bottom-of-the-table Mediterranean Knights at the 10,000-capacity stadium in Benina, which is 19 kilometers from Benghazi on Tuesday, October 15, 2024.
