The Minister of Sports Development, John Enoh says the Nigerian government is not taking the inhuman treatment meted on the Super Eagles in Libya lightly.

Enoh said this during a television programme on Tuesday night.

The minister said the federal government will get to the bottom of the matter.

Players and officials were stranded for about 15 hours at a Libyan airport on Sunday and denied access to food and the internet as they prepared to honour their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier with the Mediterranean Knights.

Meanwhile, despite not playing their matchday 4 AFCON qualifying match against Libya on Tuesday, the Super Eagles of Nigeria remain top in Group D with seven points from three games.

Rwanda secured a crucial 2-1 victory over Benin in their match, played at the Stade Amahoro on Tuesday.

With the loss, the Cheetahs of Benin are still second on the log with six points from four games.
