Super Eagles forward Victor Boniface has reacted to the inhumane treatment of the national team players at the Al Abaq airport, Al Abaq in Libya, ahead of the AFCON 2025 second leg game.

The team’s plane was redirected mid-air to the remote airport, about a three-hour drive to Benghazi, and have been locked at the airport since last night for over 10 hours now.

The Libyans have provided no legitimate reason for the team’s ordeal, leaving the players to hang around at the airport overnight, barely hours before the match.

Bayer Leverkusen striker Boniface has taken to social media to express his frustration and dissatisfaction, calling on the relevant authorities to intervene.

“Been at the airport for almost 13 hours no food no Wi-Fi no where to sleep. African we can do better @caf,” he wrote.

Africanglitz reported that Super Eagles captain William Troost-Ekong reacted to Libya’s inhumane treatment of the Nigerian national team at the Al Abaq airport.

The team’s plane was dangerously redirected to another airport a few hours from landing in Benghazi, and the players were held hostage for over 12 hours with no provisions.

Ekong narrated the incident on his social media pages and confirmed that the team will not play as the team is planning on their return to Nigeria.

Africanglitz also reported that Victor Osimhen encouraged Boniface with a message on Instagram after the German-based striker fired blanks for the Super Eagles against Libya.

The former Royal Union Saint-Gilloise forward has yet to score for the national team, and in Osimhen’s absence against the North Africans, he failed to end his goal drought.
