Kakamega Homeboyz midfielder Shami Kibwana has been named and feted as the July Football Kenya Federation Premier League player of the month following his unrivalled goal returns.
The skilful midfielder was in sensational form in the month, finding the back of the net eight times in six league outings that his side played. His team won five of the six matches.
He began the month with a brace against Ulinzi Stars. He then set up the other goal for Allan Wanga as Homeboyz downed the Soldiers 3-1 in Nakuru. He followed it with another brace in the 4-2 win over Mathare United at the same venue.
In the following match that was also staged in Nakuru, he scored one as Homeboyz downed Nzoia Sugar FC 2-1. He experienced a two-match drought against Wazito FC and Sofapaka before returning to the score sheet in style with a treble in the 4-1 win over Kariobangi Sharks.
Kibwana, who is set to ditch Homeboyz for champions Tusker FC, beat two other contestants to bag the monthly award that comes with a Ksh. 50,000 token and a personalized trophy courtesy of FKF Premier League. Kariobangi Sharks’ Eric Kapaito who was equally in great form that month came in second while KCB’s David Simiyu finished third.
