Breaking: President Of Libyan Football Federation Resigns 

Written by on October 16, 2024

The President of the Libyan Football Federation, Abdelhakim Al-Shalmani, has announced his resignation during a regular meeting of the Federation’s General Assembly.

According to The Libya Observer, an English and Arabic online newspaper based in Tripoli, Libya, in a post on Monday via its website, the decision was made on Sunday.

Al-Shalmani’s resignation comes amid growing tension regarding the treatment of the Nigerian national football team, the Super Eagles, who faced significant challenges during their recent trip to Libya for a crucial Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier.

The Super Eagles were reportedly left stranded at the airport for over 14 hours without access to food, Wi-Fi, or proper accommodations, leading to widespread condemnation from Nigerian officials and fans alike.

The treatment of the Nigerian team has drawn sharp criticism and calls for accountability, raising questions about the readiness of Libyan authorities to host international sporting events.
