Nigerian Minister of Foreign Affairs Yusuf Maitama Tuggar is actively monitoring the Super Eagles' situation in Libya, where they are currently facing issues accessing their scheduled match. Despite attempts to facilitate the team's travel, Libyan authorities have not yet granted the necessary permissions.
Nigeria's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Maitama Tuggar, has expressed deep concern regarding the Super Eagles' situation in Libya. In a recent statement, Tuggar emphasized his close monitoring of the team's predicament, revealing that the Nigerian Mission in Tripoli, led by Ambassador Stephen Anthony Awuru, has been in continuous contact with the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) and Libyan authorities since the issue arose.
Despite these efforts, Libyan officials have yet to permit the Nigerian Mission's trip to Bayda City, where the airport is located. In a positive development, Mr. Morris Eromosele, the Head of the Nigerian Community in Benghazi, managed to reach the location early this morning with essential supplies and internet access.
Tuggar reassured the public that the Ministry is actively pursuing the situation, awaiting further developments and reports to inform subsequent actions. However, social media reactions indicate a growing sense of urgency among Nigerians, with many calling for the immediate return of the Super Eagles to Nigeria.
