The Peace Boys secured a dominant 4–1 victory in their Matchday 33 clash at the Lafia City Stadium on Monday. Plateau United have been playing their home games in Lafia due to security concerns in Jos.
Ogunbote admitted that the team felt the impact of not playing in front of their usual supporters.
“We really missed the support of our ‘twelfth man’, the fans,” Ogunbote said. “Although we appreciated the support from the Lafia crowd, we would have preferred to play this match in Jos.”
