Remo Stars maintained their seven- point lead at the top of the log following the win.
“We are not carried away with congratulatory messages, we will keep fighting in our remaining four games,” Ogunmodede stated in a short video posted on the club’s social media page.
“We have been runners-up for the past two years. We don’t want to be nearly team, we want to be the champions of the NPFL.
“I’m not happy spectators were not at the game, they are the icing on the cake.”
The Sky Blue Stars will be away to Niger Tornadoes in their next league game.
