Four
players and four coaches have been shortlisted to vie for the Player and
Manager awards for the month of August in the Nigeria Professional Football
League (NPFL) - League Bloggers Awards (LBA).
FC
Ifeanyiubah's Rafael Everton, Ladan Bosso of El-Kanemi Warriors, Solomon
Ogbeide of Sunshine Stars and Enyimba's Paul Aigbogun make up a strong field of
trainers who are in the running for the manager's award for the month under
review.
Aigbogun
and Bosso guided their clubs, Enyimba and El-Kanemi to unbeaten runs last month
and on the back of their teams' performance squeeze their way into the
shortlist for managers.
It
is a second successive shortlist for Everton in the manager's category and this
time, he was able to lead FC Ifeanyiubah from the dugout to win in the derby
against Enugu Rangers and then versus Wikki Tourists and pulled off a win on
the road at Warri Wolves though he saw his side start the month of August
losing two-nil at Plateau United.
Ogbeide
returns among the shortlists again after making an appearance in the month of
June. The Sunshine Stars gaffer watched and tutored his men to garner eight
points from five matches including a 0-0 draw at Enyimba.
NPFL
top scorer, Godwin Obaje of Wikki Tourists as well as Samad Kadiri of Sunshine
Stars, FC Ifeanyiubah's Chijioke Alakwe and Ibrahim Ajani of Shooting Stars
Sports Club (3SC) make up the list to compete for the player's award for
August.
Obaje
scored three goals, which is the most goals by any individual in the month of
August. However, all of his goals were scored in home games against MFM FC and
Lobi Stars which earned them four points while Alakwe scored a goal each in the
derby against Rangers and at Warri Wolves in which FC Ifeanyiubah notched up
all six points.
Samad
got himself among the mentions to tussle for the August award after scoring in
Sunshine Stars' 2-0 win over Niger Tornadoes at home and in their 2-3 loss at
El-Kanemi where he was a handful for the hosts in late August.
Ajani
has been one of the mainstay at 3SC this season and in August he showed why he
is an important member of the Ibadan club when he netted twice. He scored a
last-gasp equalizer at Ikorodu United to help 3SC earn a point and then scored
once in the 4-0 bashing of Kano Pillars.
The
winners for the manager and player's awards will be announced later this week.
