Enugu Rangers coach, John Obuh, and Dolphins attacking midfielder, Emem Eduok, have been named the League Bloggers Awards Manager and Player for the month of September.
The duo excelled in the month under review in the Glo Premier League and helped their teams record impressive results.
Obuh bagged the LBA Manager of the Month after leading the “Flying Antelopes” to remain unbeaten in four matches and earned 10 points.
A precious point at Abia Warriors also boosted Obuh’s statistics in September.
Obuh deservedly picks the Manager’s Award ahead of Paul Aigbogun (Warri Wolves), Okey Emordi (Kano Pillars), Patrick Udoh (Akwa United), Kelechi Emeteole (Heartland) and Gbenga Ogunbote (Sharks).
It was double celebration for Eduok whose fabulous performance also earned him an invitation to the Super Eagles nest for the Morocco 2015 qualifier against Sudan.
Eduok scored four goals, including a brace against Nasarawa United and one goal during the road trip defeat at Warri Wolves, as he edged out Frank Egharevba of Bayelsa United and NIgerian International, Gbolahan Salami of Warri Wolves, who equally scored four goals each.
The efforts of Rangers goalkeeper, Itodo Akor, who recorded clean sheets in three matches and a hat-trick from Siman Yusuf of Kaduna United were not enough to upstage Eduok.
Obuh and Eduok will be presented with their awards by the LBA later this month.
