These Edo boys has beaten the odds. Up Bendel. The unbeaten run record could not have gone on for-ever without an end. It is a record-setting situation. Positive that the whole Edo people, including the Palace and the Hard-working Governor of our State, are extremely proud of our ambassadors just like in the past, in the 70s and 80s of the last century as started by our Late leader, Samuel Ogbemudia. Bendel Insurance Boys, Thank you. We are proud of you all.
