Nigerian Govt To Address ‘Sick’ Super Eagle players In Libya

After being delayed at the Al Abaq Airport for more than 13 hours, Super Eagle players are reportedly “sick and exhausted.”

The team’s chartered plane was diverted to the small airport, just as the pilot was completing his approach to the Benghazi Airport on Sunday night.

Since then, the Nigerian delegation has been left without food, beds, and security.
