Champions in the Streets! Remo Stars Light Up Ikenne in Historic NPFL Victory Parade
History was made—and celebrated in style—on Friday as Remo Stars held a colourful open-top parade through Ikenne and neighbouring towns to mark their first-ever NPFL title win.
After edging Katsina United 1-0 last month to clinch the 2024/25 Nigeria Premier Football League title, the Sky Blue Stars have now officially brought the trophy home.
From Sagamu to Remo North and finally into Ikenne, fans filled the streets, waving flags and chanting proudly as the champions soaked in the love of their people.
✍🏽 Opinion: A Win for Remo Stars Is a Win for All of South-West Nigeria
This isn't just Remo Stars' victory — it’s a regional milestone, a revival of hope for South-West football. Not since Julius Berger’s triumph in 2000 has a team from this zone touched the summit of Nigerian football.
Coach Daniel Ogunmodede deserves massive credit. His leadership not only delivered silverware but reshaped a team into national pride.
This win signals that you don’t need big-city budgets to build elite football — just vision, unity, and grit.
With continental football on the horizon, this celebration may just be the beginning of a beautiful legacy.
