The
Confederation of African Football, CAF have imposed a $5,000 (about N1
million) fine on Nigeria for overcrowding and lack of security during
the March 29th African Cup of Nations qualifiers game between the Super
Eagles of Nigeria and the Pharaohs of Egypt.
About 50,000 spectators crammed into the 15,000 capacity Ahmadu Bello Stadium in Kaduna.
The Kaduna state government in
conjunction with the Nigerian Football Federation, NFF had thrown open
the gates to the stadium to allow fans watch the match for free.
