Sunshine Stars manager Bobola Akinfolarin celebrated his squad's initial victory in the current Nigeria National League campaign after defeating Gateway FC by two goals at the Ondo State Sports Complex in Akure. The triumph marks a positive start for the relegated outfit as they work to reconstruct their roster following an underwhelming run in the top-flight division.
Akinfolarin acknowledged the significant challenges ahead for his restructured team. The club lost numerous players after dropping from the Nigeria Premier Football League, forcing management to rebuild almost from scratch. The young manager emphasized that gradual progress remains the priority as the lengthy season unfolds, with his side focused on developing consistency through successive fixtures.
