The two-time champions went into the game looking to open the gap at the top of the log following Asante Kotoko’s 1-1 stalemate against Tamale City on Wednesday.
The leaders took the lead in the 17th minute through Emmanuel Gyamfi at the Nana Agyemang Badu I Park. Stephen Anokye Badu added to the tally just before the halftime whistle as they romped to a comfortable home win.
The win takes them to 24 points – four points ahead of Champions Asante Kotoko and giants Accra Hearts of Oak who have 20 points each ahead of their trip to Karela United on Sunday.
Accra Great Olympics and Bibiani Gold Stars sold an entertaining four-goal thriller at the Accra Sports stadium on Thursday.

The Miners took a first-half lead through Richmond Manu in the 26th minute – as he tapped in from close range. Great Olympics pressed for the equalizer but their effort yielded no dividend as the referee whistled to end the first half. Back from the break – Gold Stars scored again – this time Ebenezer Aboagye cleverly chipped one beyond the reach of the Great Olympics goalkeeper.
With five minutes of play remaining, Yaw Preko’s men pulled one back through Emmanuel Antwi in the 85th minute before Ayittey Ayikwei settled matters two minutes later.
Elsewhere, King Faisal and Hearts of Oak settled for a goalless draw at the Baba Yara stadium in Kumasi.
