NPFL Reschedules Akwa United/Insurance Match Day 16 Fixture
The Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL), has rescheduled the Match Day 16 fixture between Akwa United FC and Bendel Insurance FC for Monday.
The match was initially scheduled to be played 24 hours earlier at the Goodwill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo. The league’s Chief Operating Officer (COO), Davidson Owumi, announced the rearrangement in a letter he signed on Tuesday.
“The change of date is as a result of the 2024/2025 CAF Confederation Cup match between Enyimba FC and Zamalek SC of Egypt billed for the same stadium on the same day Sunday,” he said.
Meanwhile, Bendel Insurance may be playing the match without their captain, Meyiwa Oritseweyinmi, who is currently in the Super Eagles Team B camp in Ikenne-Remo, Ogun.
The home-based Eagles are camping ahead of the matches against Ghana in the qualifiers for the 2024 Championship of African Nations.
