CAF President Condemns Inhumane Treatment of Visiting Teams Amid Nigeria-Libya Incident

Confederation of African Football (CAF) President Patrice Motsepe has condemned the mistreatment of visiting teams, urging African nations and clubs to uphold sportsmanship. His remarks come in light of a recent incident where Nigeria’s Super Eagles were stranded for over 15 hours at Al Abraq Airport without food or water during their AFCON 2025 qualifier against Libya, leading to the game’s cancellation.

During a media briefing at the CAF 46th Ordinary General Assembly in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Motsepe stressed that appropriate action would be taken against countries violating CAF regulations. While he refrained from commenting on the ongoing investigation into the Nigeria-Libya situation, he emphasized the importance of treating visiting teams with dignity and respect.
