Nigeria missed Olympics qualifiers due to visa issues
The International Federation of American Football announced that the Nigerian men's and women's national teams will not participate in the World Championship to be held in Germany, due to the country's delegation being unable to obtain the necessary visas. The teams that were scheduled to face Nigeria in the group stage will be awarded automatic wins. Nevertheless, Nigeria still has a chance to qualify for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics by securing first or second place in next year's continental championship, which will qualify them for the final stage of the qualifiers. Nigeria's exclusion represents a setback for the development efforts of American football in Africa, despite their victory in the first edition of the African Championship last year.
