They noted that Remo Stars’ continental qualification is coming 35 years after the then Abiola Babes represented the state on the continent as the first Ogun state-based football club in 1987.
The association urged the players to continue to work with determination and motivation to maintain the momentum in the elite division of the Nigerian Professional Football League, NPFL.
