Libya to Host AfroBasket 2025 Qualifiers in February

The African Basketball Federation has officially approved Libya’s bid to host the second window of qualifiers for the AfroBasket 2025 tournament in Angola.

The qualifiers will take place at the Grand Hall in Tripoli on February 21, 22, and 23, featuring four national teams: Libya, Nigeria, Cape Verde, and Uganda.

In addition to this group, Libya will also host another group during the same period, comprising Tunisia, Kenya, Angola, and Guinea.

This marks a significant moment for Libyan basketball, as the country strengthens its role in hosting international sports events, showcasing its readiness to contribute to Africa’s basketball scene on a larger stage.

Libya has been in chaos since a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The county has for years been split between rival administrations.

Libya’s economy, heavily reliant on oil, has suffered due to the ongoing conflict. The instability has led to fluctuations in oil production and prices, impacting the global oil market and Libya’s economy.

The conflict has led to a significant humanitarian crisis in Libya, with thousands of people killed, and many more displaced. Migrants and refugees using Libya as a transit point to Europe have also faced dire conditions.

The planned elections for December 2021 were delayed due to disagreements over election laws and the eligibility of certain candidates. This delay has raised concerns about the feasibility of a peaceful political transition.

Despite the ceasefire, security remains a significant concern with sporadic fighting and the presence of mercenaries and foreign fighters. The unification of the military and the removal of foreign forces are crucial challenges.
