Coach Monday Odigie led Bendel Insurance Football Club of Benin to a sweet return to the Nigeria Professional Football League NPFL, with a 2-0 humiliation of host, Akwa United in Uyo on a first week of the elite league for the 2022/2023 season
Imade Osehenkhoe opened scoring for the visiting Insurance within 35 minutes of play, before Ismael Seriki doubled the lead for the Benincity side in the 43rd minute of the match played on Sunday at Godwill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo
The insurance boys ensured that the former league Champions Akwa United did not come back into the match, as they held on to their two goals advantage in the opening half of the encounter for the maximum three points in the match
For Coach Deji Ayeni and his players in Akwa United, it was a moment of disappointment, as they failed to take advantage of playing at home to secure the needed win in the league opener while the visitors marked the return to the topflight league since 2019 with a victory on the road
