Remo were down to ten men at the break following the dismissal of Dayo Ojo just before the break but things quickly went awry when officials failed to show up for the second half.

“The match officials have decided not to come out of the tunnel for the second half with reasons best known to them,” the Ikenne side stated in a statement on their social media.
