Ghanaian international Kwame Kizito has described his playing days in Libya with Al-Ittihad Tripoli as a nightmare marred with fighting in the country which causes him a lot of scares.
The striker joined the club in 2018 after leaving Ghana Premier League giants Accra Hearts of Oak.
Having spent a single season playing in the Libyan top-flight, Kwame Kizito secured a transfer to Swedish side BK Hacken.
Opening up on his stay in Libya, Kwame Kizito says it was a very difficult period in his career. “
Libya is a very difficult country. It is not safe when you play football there. When I went there they said it was quiet. But when I was there it was very difficult. I played there for a season, but they offered me an extension. I couldn't play there because it's not safe. I was only there for one season. I said no to them. Now I think that even they do not play football because it is war in Libya”, Kizito said while speaking to the Football Channel.
He added, “After we trained or played matches, I went straight back to the hotel. I didn't go out if it wasn't because we were training. I ate and slept in the hotel. So I did nothing but train and play matches. That's what I did”.
Kwame Kizito after a successful stint with BK Hacken has now secured a transfer to Falkenberg FF.
