Coach Kayode Olujohugbe of Sunshine Queens has been named interim coach until the Ondo State FootballAgency Agency board led by Prince John Ola Mafo appoints a substantive coach later in the month.
Unuanel was named handler of the Akure based outfit in December 2015 following the exit of coach Kennedy Boboye who led the team to a sixth place finish on the Nigeria Professional Football League log last season.
It was gathered that since his arrival, he has had a strained relationship with Henry Abiodun on issues relating to tactical plan and team selection.
This has not helped the team in the new league season as Sunshine Stars are placed 18th on the NPFL log with one point from three games with their latest slide a 2-1 defeat to MFM FC on Wednesday at the Agege Stadium.
“Coach Samson Unuanel and Henry Abiodun have been sacked by the board of the Ondo State Football Agency,” media officer Wahab Bankole confirmed on Thursday afternoon.
“Both have been at loggerhead for long and that has affected the team’s performance since the season started, little wonder the team is in the relegation zone – a position that is embarrassing for a team like Sunshine.“
Their row have affected the psyche of the players who have not justified the investment of the state government.“Sunshine Queens handler Kayode Olujohungbe have been appointed the interim coach of the team and will be in charge when we [Sunshine Stars] host Ifeanyi Ubah in Sunday’s NPFL encounter in Akure,” he concluded.
