Bendel Insurance apologise to fans after 3-0 defeat to Ikorodu City

Bendel Insurance FC have issued a public apology to their fans following a 3-0 defeat to Ikorodu City in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL).

The loss, described by the club as shocking, has prompted a swift response from the Benin Arsenal through their official social media account.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the club acknowledged the disappointing performance and assured fans that their focus has now shifted to the next fixture.

“We suffered a shocking 3-0 defeat at Ikorodu City,” the club posted. “We apologise to our fans and now shift attention to hosting Bayelsa United in the mid-week schedule.”

The result has raised concerns among supporters, but the club hopes to bounce back in their upcoming home match. Bendel Insurance, who were previously seen as one of the title contenders, now face the challenge of quickly regaining form to stay competitive in the league.

The mid-week clash against Bayelsa United will offer the Benin-based side an opportunity to redeem themselves and restore the faith of their supporters. Fans will be hoping for a positive response after the setback.
