Aftermath of the recent ruling by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) Disciplinary Board against the Libya Football Federation (LFF), members of the Nigerian community have reported mass arrests and fines imposed on them in Libya. This may not be unconnected to the verdict delivered by the Confederation of African Football, (CAF), in response to the complaint lodged by the Nigeria Football Federation, (NFF), over the treatment meted out to the Super Eagles in Libya. “The fine that Libya is accused of will be paid by Nigerian citizens who live in Libya. The Libyan government will pay the Nigerian government from their citizens’ money,” the post said. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to protecting its citizens in Libya.
