Nigeria have demanded a refund of their payment from International Air Charter plc after the airline failed to fly the Super Eagles contingent to South Africa.
The aircraft, operated by LuzAir, failed to take off after the pilot detected a technical problem and aborted the flight, setting the Eagles back a full 24 hours.
NFF Media Officer Ademola Olajire told KickOffNigeria.com that the federation have written to the company demanding a refund.
"We were shocked and disappointed at the situation and the NFF wrote to them immediately after incident demanding a full refund of payment," he said.
The incident led to widespread anger and condemnation back home, forcing NFF Secretary General Bolaji Ojo-Oba to issue a public apology on Tuesday.
A local carrier, dispatched by the Nigerian government, finally flew the team to South Africa.
