The Super Eagles have forfeited their 2025 AFCON qualifiers matchday 4 fixture against Libya due to the hostile treatment the team encountered upon their arrival in Libya yesterday. The team was abandoned at a Libyan airport for hours after reports suggested that their plane was diverted mid-descent.

The Nigerian government has taken swift action in response to the ill-treatment of the Super Eagles by Libyan authorities, summoning Libya's chargé d'affaires to resolve the issue promptly. Nigeria's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, strongly condemned the incident, describing it as "the most unfortunate situation."
