The Governor of Abia State, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu yesterday ensured that Enyimba FC travelled to Libya to honour their CAF Confederation Cup Group stage date with Al Ahly Benghazi on Thursday, April 22.
The ‘People’s Elephants’ were at risk of missing the group A fixture in Libya as a result of complications in flight and visa requirements for entry into Libya.
The chances of Nigeria’s only representative in the CAF Confederation Cup were in more jeopardy following the refusal of CAF to postpone the match as requested.
