The club president, Bamidele Ologunloluwa, said that signing new players was necessary given the team's performance in the first phase of the league.  


“We are delighted to welcome the new players into our fold," Ologunloluwa said.  


"These players are household names in the game, both within and beyond the shores of Nigeria.  


"We appeal for the continued support and prayers of all stakeholders to lift the team from its current position on the league table," he added.
