When the Eritrean national soccer team's plane returned home after a competition in Nairobi, only the coach was on board. The team's whereabouts are unknown. This isn't the first time the've pulled this though: 

Mr Musonye told the BBC's Focus on Africa programme it was the third time the Eritrean team had failed to return home after a tournament.

"The Eritrean federation have done their best to bring a team to the competition - unfortunately these boys had other ideas," he said.

"Definitely they are in Nairobi - we have so many Eritreans here - they must be somewhere."

"Seven Ugandan cricketers have disappeared from their hotel room in Canada 48hrs before their departure after a cricket tournament. A Canadian Newspaper reportedly said that the seven left their passports in the hotel rooms and apparently had a six month entry visa... This is not the first time that participants from Africa have absconded in international tournaments. In 2007, two Ugandan Cricketers disappeared after an Australian tournament."
