We will never treat a guest nation like this on purpose, William Troost-Ekong says as he gives an update on the “hostage” situation in Libya
Super Eagles captain, William Troost-Ekong, has gone on X to provide an update after he and other Super Eagles players and their officials were left stranded at an airport in Libya.
Troost Ekong stated that following an outcry on social media, Libyan authorities have finally allowed their plane to be fueled and they will be returning to Nigeria soon.
He also denied the reports that what they are experiencing in Libya is payback for what the Libyan national team suffered even when they came to Nigeria. He said they would never put a guest nation through such on purpose.
He wrote: “Power of social media. Apparently our plane is being fueled as we speak and we should be leaving for Nigeria shortly. Thanks for everyone’s support!
“I REITERATE: We would NEVER treat a guest nation for a game in this way. Mistakes happen, delays happen. But never on purpose!”
