The Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, says the Bendel Insurance Football Club may not be participating in the Nigerian National League again until the Nigeria Football Federation takes appropriate action over the attack on the team in Ogun State.
Governor Obaseki says the matter will be taken to court to seek legal redress, and the Nigerian football authorities will have to bear the costs of treatment.
Obaseki noted he was appalled by the delayed reaction from the NFF in meting out punishment to the perpetrators of what he described as a dastardly act on Bendel Insurance Players.
He says the managers of the league, have not come out to punish those that perpetrated this dastardly act with the appropriate sanction on the horrific behaviour from the other side.
