The coach of Bendel Insurance Football Club of Benin, Monday Odigie, has resigned his appointment with the Club.
It was gathered late on Thursday that Odigie submitted his resignation letter to the Club Secretary, Mr. Charles Ihimekpen shortly after the Benin Club-side lost 2-3 to Rangers International of Enugu last Sunday.
A source close to the team said Odigie wanted to resign on Match Day 10 encounter against Sunshine Stars of Akure.
But the outcome of the match, which Insurance won 2-1 on the road,prevented that from happening.
