The Chairman and CEO of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has expressed strong disapproval over the poor treatment of the Nigerian Super Eagles football team in Libya. This occurred ahead of their AFCON 2025 second leg qualifying match against Libya, which is scheduled for Tuesday, October 15.

 

In a statement released on Monday, 20241014_120146-150x150 AFCON 2025 QUALIFIERS: Dabiri-Erewa Condemns Inhumane Treatment of Super Eagles in Libya.√√√Newzspy.Dabiri-Erewa criticized the Libyan authorities for their handling of the Nigerian team’s arrival. The Super Eagles, who departed Nigeria on Sunday for the match, were initially slated to land at an airport close to the match venue. However, in an unexpected turn of events, their flight was diverted to a remote airport far from the destination. The diversion forced the team to endure another three-hour journey by road to the stadium, a situation that raised significant safety concerns.

 

Dabiri-Erewa voiced her concern about the dangers of traveling by road in Libya, particularly given the country’s current volatile state due to ongoing internal conflict. “It is widely known that road travel in Libya is incredibly risky due to the war-torn nature of the country,” she remarked, adding that the welfare and security of the Super Eagles must be the top priority for all involved.

 

The NIDCOM Chairman also highlighted the unnecessary hardship the players faced after their arrival at the airport. According to reports, the team, along with the flight crew and other officials, was stranded at the airport for over 13 hours. During this time, they were subjected to “inhuman treatment,” with no access to food, water, rest facilities, or communication with the outside world. The prolonged delay was without any clear explanation from the Libyan authorities.

 

“This is unacceptable. For over 13 hours, the Super Eagles were held in conditions that are far from appropriate, especially considering they are guests in the country for an important international sporting event,” Dabiri-Erewa lamented. She further revealed that attempts by the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) to make alternative arrangements for the team were consistently blocked by the Libyan authorities, compounding the team’s frustration.

 

The lack of provisions for the team’s transport and safety upon landing has sparked a wave of outrage. Hon. Dabiri-Erewa called on the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to immediately address the situation and ensure that incidents like this do not recur in future matches. “CAF must take this issue seriously. The safety and well-being of players must not be compromised under any circumstances, especially in a country like Libya where the security situation is already fragile.”

 

While NFF officials continue to work on resolving the situation, the NIDCOM Chairman urged the Super Eagles players to remain calm and focused. She assured them that the Nigerian government is fully aware of their predicament and is working closely with the Ministry of Sports and other relevant authorities to find a solution.

 

“We understand the difficult circumstances, but we appeal to the Super Eagles to stay composed. The Nigerian Football Federation will advise on the next course of action, and I am confident that they are prioritizing the safety of our players,” Dabiri-Erewa said.

 

The ordeal has cast a shadow over the team’s preparation for the crucial qualifying match. With just a day left before they take on Libya, the mental and physical toll of the delay and harsh conditions may have adverse effects on the players’ performance. However, there remains hope that the team can put the incident behind them and focus on securing their spot in the upcoming African Cup of Nations.

 

The incident has also sparked wider discussions about the treatment of visiting teams and officials during international sporting events. Calls are growing for stricter oversight by global and continental football bodies to prevent such occurrences in the future.

 

The Nigerian football community and fans alike have expressed solidarity with the Super Eagles, with many hoping that the situation will be resolved swiftly so that the team can concentrate on the task ahead. The Nigerian public awaits further updates on the team’s status and the steps being taken to ensure their safety and well-being.

CAF Awards Nigeria Three Points After Libya Airport Incident, Levies Fine on Libya.√√√Newzspy.

20241026_164505 CAF Awards Nigeria Three Points After Libya Airport Incident, Levies Fine on Libya.√√√Newzspy.

In a recent ruling, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) awarded Nigeria’s Super Eagles a decisive three points and three goals for their African Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier match against Libya. This outcome follows an incident involving the Libyan national team at an airport, which has sparked significant controversy in the sporting community.

The incident reportedly unfolded when the Libyan team failed to adhere to key protocols, resulting in disruption and delays at the airport, which affected Nigeria’s team travel plans and disrupted the smooth progression of the fixture. Following an investigation, CAF determined that Libya was responsible for a breach of conduct, which impeded Nigeria’s right to fair competition standards. As a result, Nigeria has been awarded three points and three goals, providing a substantial boost to their standing in the AFCON qualifiers.

In addition to the forfeited match result, Libya faces a $50,000 fine imposed by CAF. This financial penalty underscores CAF’s stance on maintaining order, discipline, and adherence to regulations within its tournaments. The decision has set a strong precedent in addressing unsportsmanlike conduct and reiterates the importance of professionalism in international competitions.

This ruling marks a pivotal moment in the AFCON qualifiers, as Nigeria’s position is bolstered in their journey towards securing a place in the tournament. The decision is expected to encourage more stringent adherence to regulations among teams moving forward, ensuring that sporting integrity remains a priority across all CAF-sanctioned events.

The partnership recently marked a significant milestone, with OrientJets officially securing its business license in Aruba. The venture’s first aircraft, a Gulfstream G550 registered as P4-ADTW, was recently spotted in Abuja, Nigeria, signaling the start of its operations.

 

“Business aviation transcends barriers. It’s more than just a luxury—it’s a critical tool for gaining a competitive edge through efficiency in transportation and logistics,” said Chukwuerika Achum, CEO of Falcon Aero. “With our commitment to expanding access and inclusion in business aviation, OrientJets represents the synergy between our Canadian subsidiary and Flybird, one of the leading names in the industry.”

 

Both partners in this joint venture are well-regarded pioneers in the business aviation sector. Flybird Aircraft Management Services Limited is renowned for providing aircraft management and charter brokerage solutions, offering customized services tailored to the needs of aircraft owners, operators, and aviation enthusiasts. As a licensed Air Operator by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), Flybird has earned a stellar reputation for its unwavering dedication to excellence. Flybird currently operates three aircraft for commercial charter from its operating base in Abuja, Nigeria.

 

Falcon Aero Canada Inc., based in Toronto, is the aircraft acquisition arm of Falcon Aerospace Limited, specializing in aircraft sales and acquisitions worldwide.

 

Captain Ahmed Borodo, CEO of Flybird Aircraft Management Services, highlighted the strategic significance of this partnership in driving the firm’s international growth. “This collaboration underscores our commitment to expanding the aviation sector beyond Nigeria’s borders. The acquisition of the Gulfstream G550 is a key step in securing our Aruba Air Operator Certificate (AOC) and furthering our mission to connect Africa with the rest of the world.”

 

Borodo added, “As a Nigerian company operating globally, we are proud of the progress we’ve made. Our focus is on continuing to grow internationally, with plans to acquire more aircraft and extend our services to key markets in North America, Europe, and Asia. A GIV-SP and Challenger 604 are expected to join the fleet before the end of Q1 2025.”
