CurrentReport Blog Former Kano Pillars midfielder, Abu Azeez, has issued a strong warning to Remo Stars, stating that the club will have only themselves to blame if they fail to secure the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) title this season.
The Ikenne-based club currently leads the NPFL table with 51 points, holding a 10-point advantage over their closest rivals. With 13 games left, Remo Stars are in pole position to claim their first-ever league championship.
Azeez Urges Remo Stars to Stay Focused
Speaking to Official54fx, Azeez emphasized the importance of maintaining their impressive home form and securing valuable points in away fixtures.
“If anything goes wrong, Remo Stars will have only themselves to blame,” Azeez stated.
“With 13 games to go and a 10-point lead, all they need to do is maintain their strong home record and aim for a win or a draw in away matches.”
His comments come as a reminder that, despite their strong position, complacency could still cost them the title.
Remo Stars’ Strong Home Form Key to Success
Daniel Ogunmodede’s side has been dominant at home this season, a major factor in their rise to the top of the NPFL standings. If they can continue their impressive performances in Ikenne, they will be on track for a historic league victory.
Azeez’s warning highlights the competitive nature of the Nigerian top flight, where teams have struggled to maintain consistency throughout the season. Remo Stars must remain disciplined and avoid dropping unnecessary points in the final stretch.
Remaining Fixtures Will Be Crucial
With 13 matches left, Remo Stars will need to navigate a tough schedule, including difficult away trips against experienced teams. While their 10-point cushion gives them an advantage, they cannot afford to let their guard down.
Their ability to grind out results in away fixtures will be equally crucial. Securing draws or narrow wins on the road will keep their title charge on course.
Can Remo Stars Make History?
Remo Stars’ rise in Nigerian football has been impressive, and winning the NPFL title would mark a significant milestone for the club. The team has never won the Nigerian league championship, making this season their best chance to secure their first major domestic trophy.
Azeez’s comments serve as both a challenge and motivation for Ogunmodede’s squad. The pressure is now on Remo Stars to prove they have what it takes to go all the way.
Final Thoughts
With a commanding lead at the top of the NPFL table, Remo Stars are in a prime position to make history. However, as Abu Azeez has warned, they must stay focused and continue their strong form. If they slip up, they will have only themselves to blame.
