Shooting Stars Sports Club of Ibadan has announced that head coach Nurudeen Aweroro, along with team manager Tammy Tamuno and assistant coach Shakiru Lawal, will be leaving the club with immediate effect. The decision was reached through mutual consent, as per a club statement. Aweroro joined the club in July last year and had led Shooting Stars to a third-place finish in the NPFL league, which granted them a return to continental football.
This marks the club's best finish in 27 years. Despite his success, Aweroro will depart just weeks before the 2026/27 NPFL season commences. Following their exit, the club thanked Aweroro, Tamuno, and Lawal for their contributions, particularly in achieving third place in the previous season and securing a continental football ticket. They expressed gratitude for the team's efforts and wished them well in their future endeavors.
