Remo Stars have completed the signing of left-back Chiemeka Nwokeji from Sporting Lagos, and right-back Ibrahim Abubakar from Kano Pillars.
The Skye Blue Stars confirmed the development via their official X handle on Tuesday.
Nwokeji favoured a move to the Ikenne-based team after Sporting Lagos got relegated to the Nigeria National League (NNL) last season.
The flamboyant left-footed defender comes with league experience and will also serve as a direct competition for Seun Ogunribide.
Meanwhile, Ibrahim Abubakar who played for Kano Pillars last season, has featured for Plateau United and Sevan FC of Armenia in the past.
