Bolivia have cancelled a friendly with Nigeria, scheduled for 26 March in Uyo, because of security fears.
Bolivian Football Federation president Carlos Chavez
said: "Armed conflict and the tense political situation in Nigeria
forced our withdrawal."
Nigerian officials said they were bemused by the
decision, claiming they had put everything in place to ensure a
hitch-free game.
It means goalkeeper Vinent Enyeama may have to wait for his 100th cap. The 32-year-old was expected to reach the landmark
against Bolivia, having been named in a 28-man squad selected by Super
Eagles caretaker coach Daniel Amokachi.
