Bolivia have withdrawn from their scheduled international friendly with the Super Eagles of Nigeria, citing security concerns.
The South American nation was set to face Nigeria in  Uyo on Thursday, March 26, but the Bolivian Football Federation (FBF) announced that they have backed out of the clash.
"The armed conflict in Nigeria has forced the cancellation of the game," FBF president Carlos Chavez said at a press conference.
"Due to problems of civil war which is going through Nigeria, the FBF sent documentation with relevant backups to the organiser of the FULL PLAY GROUP meeting, under the argument to preserve the physical integrity of players, coaches and leaders," a translated statement on FBF's website read.
Super Eagles caretaker coach Daniel Amokachi yesterday named the squad for the scheduled Bolivia and South Africa match.
