Nigeria U-23 team escaped a plane crash
on their way to Gambia on Sunday morning towards perfecting strategies
for the CAF U-23 Africa Cup of Nations in Senegal, according to a Goal.com report.
The team opted for the West African country after their trip to Morocco was cancelled due to visa issues.
Goal.com gathered through one of
the Nigeria U-23 officials that the pilot of the Arik Airline made an
emergency landing in Accra, Ghana due to unexpected technical
difficulties to the aircraft and the team were left stranded in the
Ghanaian capital.
“Thank God for his goodness and mercies,
we escaped a plane crash on our way to Gambia, the pilot had to make an
emergency landing in Accra. We are still in Accra,” a senior official
of the team told Goal after the incident.
“We are stranded here and we have yet to get any news from Arik officials.”
Thank God you guys are safe
