hardship,as both teams prepare to clash in Calabar on Saturday in a 2014 World Cup qualifiers.
On Wednesday,the Kenya Football Federation,said that they were abandoned by the NFF,after they touched down in Nigeria on Wednesday,and were also made to undergo their training sessions at a local Primary school,with no security.
But the NFF exonerated themselves of any blame,citing a breakdown in communication as the reason for what happened to the Kenyans.
“To start with, they were playing hide and seek about their travel arrangements,” Bola Oyeyode an official of the NFF told KickOffNigeria.com
“They refused to communicate their arrival date to us despite numerous letters from us to them.
“In all those communications, we copied their embassy here and Fifa and we still have the letters here.
“It was only on Monday afternoon that they wrote to us informing us they would arrive on Wednesday afternoon.
“In their letter, they never said they wanted to train in Lagos. The arrangement was for them to come in and fly straight to Calabar. But their flight arrived at noon, and the flight to Calabar is usually at 11am,” he added.
“At no time did we discuss anything about a chartered aircraft. Even our own team, who are African champions, flew to Calabar on a regular commercial flight.”
