In its statement, the Libyan Football Federation expressed regret over the events that unfolded, attributing the unfortunate incident to routine airport protocols. Additionally, they recalled how Libya encountered significant travel difficulties just a week prior to arriving in Nigeria but chose not to make public complaints.
The Libyan FA emphasised its longstanding tradition of hospitality, ensuring that all visiting teams are treated with dignity and respect. They also reaffirmed their commitment to fairness on and off the field.
