Big scare for Zaidu: Nigeria team plane makes emergency landing in Luanda | OneFootball

The Nigerian national team delegation, with Zaidu among its members, experienced moments of great apprehension this Saturday during their journey from South Africa to Uyo. After a technical stopover for refueling in Luanda, and only 25 minutes after resuming the flight, the aircraft reported an emergency due to a problem with the windshield—which shattered completely.

The pilot immediately began emergency procedures and, despite the commotion and the scare, there were no injuries; the emergency landing in Luanda proceeded smoothly.

The Nigerian Football Federation confirmed the incident and reported that a new plane was requested to transport the team from Luanda to the Nigerian city that will host the match against Benin on Tuesday.
