The match, which took place in Ikenne, saw Remo Stars dominate the second half with goals from Sikiru Alimi, Stanley Joseph, and Sodiq Ismail.
The win propels Remo Stars to the top of the league table with 15 points from six matches. They now hold a one-point advantage over their nearest competitors, Rivers United, who remain undefeated after a goalless draw against Katsina United.
