NPFL Shock: Remo Stars Confirm Relegation After Painful 2025/26 Season Collapse
Remo Stars F.C. have officially confirmed their relegation from the Nigeria Premier Football League following the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.
In an emotional statement released by the club, Remo Stars admitted the campaign ended far below expectations and described the outcome as heartbreaking for everyone connected to the team.
“This outcome is heartbreaking for everyone connected to the club,” the statement read.
The club acknowledged the disappointment experienced by supporters, players, management, and staff after failing to secure enough consistency throughout the season.
“We did not deliver the performances required to remain in the division,” the club implied.
Remo Stars also accepted responsibility for the disappointing campaign while recognizing the high expectations surrounding the team before the season began.
“We take full responsibility for the failure,” the statement noted.
Despite the setback, the club insisted it remains committed to rebuilding and returning stronger in the future.
“Our focus now shifts toward rebuilding with purpose and determination,” the statement added.
The club also expressed gratitude to supporters who continued standing by the team during difficult moments across the season.
“Your loyalty means everything to us,” Remo Stars stressed.
The relegation has sparked emotional reactions among fans, especially considering the club’s ambitions and recent progress within Nigerian football.
“It’s a painful moment for the club and supporters,” many football observers reacted.
Remo Stars, however, remain optimistic about rebuilding and fighting for a return to the top division.
For the club, the message is clear.
Mistakes have been acknowledged.
A rebuilding process is coming.
And the ambition to return stronger remains alive.
Because setbacks in football often become the beginning of a new chapter of growth and recovery.
Makinde made the call on Sunday during a church service at the Headquarters of the Church of Christ in Nations (COCIN), Jos, where he was received by the church leadership and congregation.
The presidential candidate said his visit was not for an open campaign but to worship with the congregation, seek prayers and encourage Christians to take an active role in determining the nation’s political direction.
Describing Nigeria as being at a defining moment, Makinde said the country needed leadership capable of addressing insecurity, reducing economic hardship, strengthening the economy and implementing policies that improve the lives of ordinary Nigerians.
“Nigerians deserve better. We need a leader who has the fear of God, who sees the pains of Nigerians, who can change bad governance to good governance,” he said.
Makinde Challenges Christians to Embrace Politics
The Oyo State Governor challenged Christians who avoid politics because they consider it dirty or incompatible with their faith to reconsider their position.
He argued that Christians should not abandon the political space but should participate actively and contribute to decisions that shape the nation’s future.
“As Christians, we must participate. We must participate. Let our voices be heard in changing the course of history for Nigeria,” he urged.
He also encouraged the congregation to turn out on election day and make informed choices, stressing that decisions taken today would have lasting consequences for future generations.
Recounts Political Journey, Promises Return to Plateau
Reflecting on his political journey, Makinde recalled how many people doubted his ambition when he first expressed interest in becoming Governor of Oyo State.
He said his eventual emergence as governor demonstrated that political expectations could be challenged through determination and public support.
Makinde maintained that his message to Nigerians, particularly the Christian community, was to support leadership that understands their challenges and is committed to building a better country.
He disclosed that he would return to Plateau State in the coming days for an open campaign.
The service featured prayers for Nigeria, Plateau State and peaceful, credible elections in 2027.
