The League Bloggers Awards on Thursday named eight nominees in the running for the manager and player’s awards for the month of April based on performances in the Nigeria Professional Football League.
Last season’s top scorer, Godwin Obaje, with FC Ifeanyiubah, headlined the list of players vying for honours in the month under review. Lobi Stars striker, Kingsley Eduwo, Enugu Rangers winger, Osas Okoro and Plateau United left-back, Daniel Itodo completed the nominees for the player’s award.
In the running for the manager award are Yaw Preko of FC Ifeanyiubah, Solomon Ogbeide of Lobi Stars, Akwa United’s Abdu Maikaba and Chukwuma Agbo of Rangers.
Maikaba, Preko and Ogbeide led their teams to unbeaten spells. Agbo oversaw four matches for Rangers in May, including two rearranged games, in which they won two, drew one and lost the other.
The LBA will announce the manager and player for May next week.
