The resignation, it was gathered, is not unconnected with the national team’s poor run in the qualifiers, which also included their 0–1 loss to the Super Eagles in Uyo last Friday.
The president of the federation resigned on Sunday morning following a pressure as a result of that loss to the Super Eagles.

This event comes just days before Libya’s second-leg qualifier against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
Libya are currently bottom of the qualifying group for AFCON 2025.
