Nigeria have threatened to boycott their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Libya on Tuesday after being stranded for hours at an airport far from their destination where players said they lacked provisions and comfort.

The Super Eagles are due to play hosts Libya in the city of Benghazi, where they could seal a qualification berth for the finals in Morocco late next year.
