Following the league triumph, the Governor awarded each player of the team a plot of land at Rangers Estate but six years after the feat which was the club’s first since 1981, those promises are yet to be fulfilled.

Governor Ugwuanyi’s stay in office will come to an end in May 2023.

Since the league title, coach Ndubuisi Agbo and midfielder Ifeanyi George have passed on while Ifeanyi Egwim and Chidiebere Okolie sustained serious injuries that season that required operations abroad.
