Remo Stars have announced that the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abeokuta will serve as their temporary home at the start of the 2025/26 Nigeria Premier Football League season, following ongoing renovations at their Ikenne base.

The club confirmed the move on Monday as they prepare for their opening home fixture against Rivers United in a blockbuster season curtain-raiser on Friday, August 22.

“Due to ongoing renovations at our stadium in Ikenne, the club can confirm a temporary home ground, the MKO Abiola Sports Arena, Kuto, Abeokuta,” the club posted on social media.

“Come through, make some noise, and let’s turn Abeokuta into a fortress together! A return home is, however, imminent.”

The Sky Blue Stars are set to welcome back several players who were away on national duty at the CHAN competition, along with head coach Daniel Ogunmodede, as they look to mount a strong challenge against George Finidi’s Rivers United.
