Sunshine’s Odunlami And Aggrey Apologize For Behavior In 2-1 Win Over Dolphins

Sunshine Stars ‘strippers’, Ebenezer Odunlami and Prince Aggrey, have both apologized for their behavior in a league game over the weekend, the League Management Company have announced.
The LMC says it will no longer take further actions against the two players following their letters of apology. The players were sanctioned earlier in the week for their behavior during the Match Day 4 league game against Dolphins.
Aggrey and Odunlami stripped to their undies on Sunday in celebration when the former scored the winner in a 2-1 win over Dolphins in Akure, and were subsequently banned on Monday for one league game each and fined N50, 000 each for indecent exposure and behavior capable of bringing the league to disrepute.
The LMC had also, in line with the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) framework and regulations, allowed the two players 48 hours to either submit to the decision or elect to be dealt with by a special LMC commission.
However, following the separate letters of apology from the duo, the LMC has commended the players for accepting responsibility and admonished them to be of good behavior going forward.
LMC Chief Operating Officer, Salihu Abubakar, says “The two players have written to accept full responsibility for their bad behavior and have accordingly apologized to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), the LMC, our broadcast partners; their employers; Supporters of Sunshine Stars and the general public”.
