The decisive performance came at the Dr Kwame Kyei Sports Complex, where Nations delivered a commanding first-half display to secure all three points.
Samuel Tetteh proved to be the difference-maker, striking twice in quick succession to put the hosts firmly in control early in the contest. The forward opened the scoring in the fifth minute before doubling the advantage just five minutes later, leaving the visitors with a mountain to climb.
Nations FC dominated proceedings for much of the game, controlling possession and creating the more dangerous opportunities, while Basake Holy Stars found it difficult to gain any attacking rhythm.

The victory sees Nations climb out of the relegation zone at a crucial stage of the season, providing a significant boost as the battle for survival intensifies.
For Basake Holy Stars, the loss brings a halt to their recent progress and leaves them in mid-table, still needing points to secure their status in the league.
