Enyimba’s next opponent in the CAF Confederation Cup, Ahli Benghazi of Libya has gotten CAF’s approval to kick off their game against Enyimba late to enable them break their Ramadan fast.

The game which was to kick off by 6 pm would now kick off by 9 pm local time which would be 11 pm in Nigeria.

Newstap.com.ng gathered exclusively that Enyimba has already been communicated with the new kick off time for the game billed for mid next week…April 21.

Enyimba it is recalled suffered a 0-3 defeat in their last away game in Algeria against Setif.

The Peoples Elephant as the Aba giants are called had to embark on a very tiring journey to Algeria arriving the North African country after a three day journey that first took them to Doha, Algiers and then Setif.

With no money for a charter flight (except a financial miracle happens), Enyimba may embark on another merry go round trip to Libya as there are no direct flights to Libya.

It would be noted that both Ahli Benghazi and Setif stormed Aba for the first leg of their game against Enyimba with a charter flight.
