I can still hear Ogboe saying, Agboifo, Agboifo...., Muweyo....

Damn! Gaddem!!! :veryangry: :veryangry:
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

You forget Peter Egharevba, he and Teke Teke (Ogboe) scored 2 each before half time.

Our team.

Alex Nnaji – David Adiele, Francis Moniedafe, Leotis Boateng, Kadiri Ikhana – Felix Agboinfo (cpt), George Omokaro – Christopher Ogu, Peter Egharevba, Henry Ogboe, and Rufus Ejele (65th Ebenezer Badger).

That was my cousin from my mother's side.
Unfortunately, I never get to see him live. Was in the US long by then.
Can somebody please describe his exploits... .Waffiman, Sir V, Megapro, ... oya abeg!!

You are talking about 1978. Wonderful achievement for Insurance. Ogboe at his peak; he was pointing to his legendary left leg after he smashed that shot past Emmanuel Okala. (Muoweyo: Put leg! Put ya leg!! Tackle hard!!!)

Abeg no come make my friend Oloye vex for me again o!
:clap: :clap:

Muweyo from Ogboe to Agonifo is more like mumwenyo which is 'put me on' (through pass)

Same game
Okala to CCC
'Chukwu, Ogboe na bia, Ogboe na bia'

Same game
Ernest Okonkwo
After the second goal
'I can see the cup already at Ore'

Same game
Ernest Okonkwo
After the third goal
'Rangers have not only been beaten, they've been battered'

'Rangers have come, have seen, and have been conquered'

I was at the Lobi game in Uniben Monday. Also saw Kwara game

ALL goals of Insurance have been scored by Charles Omokaro. This is his 20th year in the national league
He was also the leading scorer in Super 8.
His father George Omokaro held the midfield for Insurance in that 78 final

Another player that day
Peter Egharevba
Four of his dons gave played for different age levels of the National team including Super eagles. Record!

I no be Owi Edo; but you are right that's what Ogboe said...son of a gun, with that wicked left foot...

On second thoughts, that sounds about right. Pity there is no video record of the exploits of Ogboe's left foot!

I was at the Lobi game in Uniben Monday. Also saw Kwara game
UNIBEN has a facility good enough for a Premier League game? I thought Ogbe was Insurance' home turf?

ALL goals of Insurance have been scored by Charles Omokaro. This is his 20th year in the national league
He was also the leading scorer in Super 8.

This guy must be about 40 years old then?

Some people allege that Egharevba is the real father of Victor Moses.

I lived for those moments in any match when, without fail, he brought total mayhem into the 18 of the opposing team. Pity we lack videos from those days. He was a special talent.

Bendel Insurance are a throwback to Nigerian football antiquity. What became of those corporate backed Nigerian football teams of old? Leventis United, New Nigerian Bank, Union Bank, Abiola Babes, Iwuanyanwu Nationale etc? Seems that corporate/private ownership has been replaced by state club ownership.
