"Sunshine Stars beat Wikki tourists  by one goal to nil in the match day 12 in Akure, it was good goal and Wikki boys also played their hearts to equalize but their effort was not enough to give them even a point, despite our loss, I must commend the centre referee Mr Ukah Ndubisi for his wonderful officiating," Kobi said.
