NNL Super 8: Makinde Urges 3SC To Go For Glory
Oyo State governor, ‘Seyi Makinde, has urged the Shooting Stars Sports (3SC) Club to go for the ultimate glory after its emphatic win over Bendel Insurance in the Nigerian National League (NNL) Super 8 match.
The NNL Super 8 League is a prerequisite to securing a promotion to the elite Nigerian Premier Football League (NPFL) and the Ibadan darling football team defeated Bendel Insurance Football Club by two goals to one on Tuesday in Enugu.
Makinde, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Taiwo Adisa, hailed the spirits of the 3SC players, charging them to go for glory and reclaim the glory of the 3SC.
He said: “The victory of the 3SC over Bendel Insurance today is a sweet one. It was a confirmation of the high spirits of the team on its way to promotion into the premier league.
“I commend the players and the management of the team for justifying the passionate belief and confidence that we have in them.
“This victory is well-deserved as it showed the determination of our boys to bring back the glory days of the Oluyole Warriors. My charge to them is to brace up and man up for the matches ahead and secure the much-coveted promotion.
“It will be remarkable and eventful if the boys can bring back the glory days by securing promotion at a period that our government has just remodelled their grounds, the Lekan Salami Stadium, Adamasingba, Ibadan, to a world class facility.
“This is the charge for the boys: 3SC’s promotion is a task that must be done and, as a government, we will do everything possible to support the team.”
