The Benin-based side continued their dominance after the restart, with Precious Oscar extending the lead in the 59th minute. Just four minutes later, Mary Mamudu added a fourth goal to put the result beyond doubt.
FC Robo Queens managed to pull a goal back late in the game when Florence Godwin Freda found the net in the 86th minute, but it was only a consolation as Edo Queens comfortably saw out the victory.
The emphatic win represents a strong response from Edo Queens following their opening-day disappointment and significantly strengthens their ambitions of challenging for the 2026 NWFL Premiership Super Six crown.
With four goals, an improved performance, and three valuable points secured, Edo Queens have reignited their title hopes as the competition gathers momentum in Port Harcourt.
