A resident supporter of the club in Akure, Karim Olaleke, said, “I have watched the team at its highest and I have also watched them when things were going bad. The journey has been a mixture of joy and pain for me as a fan, and I hope that one day, I will watch this team win the NPFL particularly, and I also want to see them return to the continent and make us proud again like they did in 2011 an 2012.
In a chat with the Chairman of Sunshine Stars FC Supporters’ Club, Tunde Adeboboye, he said the team is poised for titles as they go into a new season. “We thank God for his mercies over we the supporters, we have been supporting this club since its establishment and it is our prayer that one day, we will celebrate winning the league and even the FA Cup,” Adeboboye toldWhile domestic titles have eluded the club, Sunshine Stars reached the semi-finals of the CAF Confederation Cup and the CAF Champions League in 2011 and 2012 respectively.
