The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has rejected claims of poor treatment by Libya captain Faisal Al-Badri.
The NFF insisted that the Libyan Football Federation (LFF) created chaos for its own team, the Mediterranean Knights.
NFF’s Assistant Director (Protocol), Emmanuel Ayanbunmi, said the Libya Federation only informed the NFF that its team was landing in Port Harcourt, and not Uyo, only three hours to the team’s arrival on Tuesday.
Ayanbunmi added that the Libyan delegation jettisoned road transportation arrangements made for them by the NFF and instead hired buses on their own.
“If they travelled on buses that were not air-conditioned, that had nothing to do with the NFF as they hired their own buses,” he stated.
“We provided security for them, with men and vehicles in front and behind their buses, so we are unmoved about their complaints and threats.”
