Bendel Insurance chairman Philip Shaibu has revealed the reason behind the team’s recent impressive run of form.
The Benin Arsenals have lost only twice in their last seven league outings.
Insurance currently occupy ninth position on the table with 38 points.
“Bendel Insurance have been boosted by the restoration of their welfare packages, as well as the motivation from the NPFL’s points deduction following crowd violence in our game against Kano Pillars FC in November 2024,” Shaibu told Completesports.com.
“We appreciate the NFF Appeals Committee for their ruling, as Bendel Insurance maintain one of the best security networks during matches.
“We are a very disciplined club. What happened against Kano Pillars was an unfortunate incident, and we have taken the necessary measures to ensure it never happens again.”
Bendel Insurance will face league leaders Remo Stars this weekend in Benin City.
