Super Eagles demand victory after Libyan AFCON debacle

The Nigerian team faced significant challenges when their plane was unexpectedly diverted to Al Abraq Airport, leaving them stranded for over 16 hours without food, water, or internet access.

The match, originally scheduled for October 15 in Benghazi, was boycotted by the Super Eagles due to the "inhumane" conditions they endured.

Following the incident, the NFF lodged a formal complaint with CAF, accusing Libya of failing to provide adequate hospitality.

The CAF Disciplinary Committee, based in Cairo, have since launched an investigation to determine responsibility for the crisis.

Both Nigeria and Libya have been given the opportunity to submit documents supporting their claims.

NFF Media Director Ademola Olajire expressed Nigeria's position, stating, "We are demanding the full measure of the law, which is the three points and three goals to Nigeria, and a hefty fine to deter future misconduct."

Nigeria, currently leading Group D with seven points, is pressing for a verdict that would secure their top spot or, at the very least, a rematch in a neutral location.
