Shooting Stars Sports Club of Ibadan (3SC) have unveiled Gbenga Ogunbote popularly known as the Oracle as their new head coach.
Coach Ogunbote was unveiled at the Lekan Salami stadium, Adamasingba Ibadan on Monday. He was presented to the fans in presence of Oyo State Commissioner for Youths and Sports, Hon. Seun Fakorede, Chairman Oyo State Sports Council, Hon. Gbenga Adewusi (Arole), Chairman Shooting Stars, Hon Babatunde Olaniyan among others.
The Oracle will replace Edith Agoye who left for Sunshine Stars of Akure after a turbulent campaign with 3SC last season.

Gbenga Ogunbote has now returned to the Oluyole Warriors for the third time in his coaching career.
The former Enyimba, Sunshine Stars, and Enugu Rangers tactician is expected to change the fortunes of 3SC in the coming season.
3SC narrowly escaped relegation on the final day of last season. They finished 16th on the log with 48 points after 38 matches.
