Nigerian govt summons Libyan ambassador over Super Eagles treatment

The Federal Government has summoned the Libyan ambassador to Nigeria over the Super Eagles’ poor treatment in the North African country.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, confirmed the development on Monday to journalists at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

Libyan officials have subjected the Nigerian contingent to a hostage situation as they were locked up at the Al Abraq International Airport in Libya for over 12 hours after they arrived on Sunday and were unable to reach their hotel in Benghazi, which is three hours away.
