Adeyemi has not been officially asked to go, but his mobile phone number has been removed from the official WhatsApp group of the 3SC.
Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde has reportedly ordered the sacking of Mr Abubakre Adeyemi, the defensive midfielder of Shooting Stars, the state-owned football club, popularly called 3SC. Adeyemi is one of the sons of a factional leader of the Peoples Democratic Party , Alhaji Adebisi Abdulrasheed Adeyemi, aka Olopoeniyan, who is at loggerheads with the governor in the state.
Our correspondent learnt that Makinde who is on an official trip to Paris, France, ordered that Adeyemi should be sacked because of his father's involvement in the parallel PDP local government congresses held in the state on Tuesday. Speaking on the development, Adeyemi who simply said he was surprised when he got removed from the team's WhatsApp group on Tuesday evening, added that removing a player in the 3SC WhatsApp group is a pointer to the sacking of the player.
