Remo Stars head coach Daniel Ogunmodede has revealed why the Nigeria Professional Football League leaders have been utterly dominant at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne this season, Footynaija.com reports.
Ogunmodede’s Remo currently boast a 51-game unbeaten home record in the NPFL. In the current campaign, they have won 15 of their 16 home league fixtures, recording just one draw against their closest rivals Rivers United back in November 2024.
This incredible home form has played a significant role in their impressive league standing, with the Sky Blues Stars currently leading the way in Nigeria’s top-flight division after 30 rounds of matches so far.

Speaking after the match, the Remo Stars boss opened up on the reason behind his team’s incredible home form, revealing that the desire to keep their fans happy is what spurs the Sky Blue Stars’ resilience at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne.
“We don’t want to be beaten. We can’t disappoint our fans,” Ogunmodede said in quotes revealed by Premium Times via allAfrica.
“They’re here, they paid money, they risked their lives to be here. And then go back home sad? That’s not going to happen. We won’t allow that.”
