The Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) trophy could make its way to Ikenne this weekend as Remo Stars edge closer to clinching their maiden league title.
The Sky Blue Stars are poised to be crowned champions of the 2024/2025 NPFL season should they defeat Niger Tornadoes in their final home fixture on Sunday. The much-anticipated showdown will take place at the Remo Stars Stadium, with fans and football stakeholders gearing up for what could be a defining moment in the club’s history.
There is a palpable sense of excitement across the Ikenne community as supporters prepare to rally behind their team in what promises to be an electric atmosphere.

The NPFL trophy — the ultimate symbol of domestic football excellence — may be hoisted in Ikenne for the first time if Remo Stars rise to the occasion.
With just one match standing between them and glory, all eyes will be on Ikenne as the Sky Blue Stars seek to make history on home soil.
