At Agbor Township Stadium, Tejiri Edward s strike from the spot helped Delta Queens secure a 1-0 win over FC Robo Queens.
Emmanuel Osahon s side had suffered a robbery on Wednesday morning in Benin but eventually resolved to play the match the same day against their hosts in Agbor.
The outcome saw Robo crash to a third consecutive away defeat in the absence of topscorer Gift Monday and Habeebat Akinwande due to international duties with Nigeria in Turkey.
The triumph takes Delta to fourth on the log with 13 points from seven outings, while Robo slipped further to fifth with 12 points.
In Benin, Edo Queens bounced back to winning ways, with a 1-0 victory over Confluence Queens at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium.
The result saw the Restoration ladies open a two-point lead at the top with nine points, while the Lagos Landladies have slipped to fourth on the log with six points from three matches.
In Uyo, Ibom Angels finally had something to cheer about at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium after they celebrated their first win of the season in a 2-1 victory over Royal Queens.
Before the visit of newcomers Royal Queens, Ibom had played two matches, garnering just one point following a 1-0 win at home to Osun Babes before they forced a 1-1 draw at Pelican Stars last week.
