The Libyan football federation has threatened to take legal actions against Nigeria for pulling out of the qualifiers with it.
This position was communicated in a statement published by Libya Observer.
"The Libyan Football Federation condemns the measures taken by the Nigerian Football Federation by refusing to play the Libya-Nigeria match in the African Cup of Nations qualifiers scheduled for Tuesday, October 15,” the statement read in part.
They stressed that the Libyan Football Federation would take all legal measures to preserve the interests of the Libyan national football team.
According to the Libyan Football Federation, what the Super Eagles experienced could not be compared to what the Libyan team experienced in the first leg.
“The Libyan Federation attaches some inhumane footage that did not prevent the Libyan mission from playing the Nigeria-Libya match last Friday in Nigeria, out of cooperation with the Confederation of African Football.
“The Libyan Football Federation clarifies that its Nigerian counterpart did not cooperate with it in any way, whether regarding the first or second leg match, noting that the events beyond our control do not equal a small part of what the Libyan national team was exposed to in the first leg match,” it said.
The statement went on to apologise to Libyan Football Fans everywhere and to the parties concerned with the match arrangements “due to the state of confusion caused by the Nigerian Football Federation, which led to the match not being held on time."
There is an unending disagreement between Libya and Nigeria, after the Super Eagles players were stranded at an airport in Libya which forced the Super Eagles of Nigeria players from playing the match citing security concerns, fatigue and inhuman treatment.
While the Libya Football Federation has continued to blame its Nigerian counterpart for the crisis, saying Libyan Football Federation team were treated same way in Nigeria, its Nigerian counterpart has denied any wrongdoing blaming the Libyans for their own predicament in Nigeria.
