The Confederation of African Football, or CAF, gave the Super Eagles three points and three goals on Saturday in response to the failed 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Libya.
The Super Eagles maintained their lead in the group following the decision.
The Nigerians now have 10 points after four matches, four more than their nearest opponent Benin.
Libya remains at the bottom of the group, with only one point.
A draw with Benin in Abidjan next month will qualify the Super Eagles for the 2025 AFCON, which will be hosted by Morocco in December 2025.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) also penalized the Libyan Football Federation $50,000.
The fine must be paid within 60 days after notification of the ruling.
