REMO Stars ace, Onuoha Mbami Chukwujekwu has dedicated his first Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) goal to his mother, reports NaijaSportsXtra.blogspot.com.
Mbami, aside scoring his first topflight goal, wrote his name on a platter of gold for the Sky Blues Stars netting their fastest strike in the NPFL in less than two minutes of kick-off against El-Kanemi Warriors in a matchday 5 game at the Gateway Stadium, Sagamu.
He slotted into the net after goalkeeper, Kazeem Yekini spilled Oche Salefu's free kick to his path
A delighted Mbami took to social media, Facebook hours after the epic victory, "#Thank God for my first NPFL goal of the season, #I dedicate it to my lovely mum. Your prayers has been my back bone...love u so much mum and I pray for more goals to come amen," his post read.
Salefu's hard work then paid off as just few minutes after the second half commenced, Okorie Daniel was brought down at the edge of the box, Salefu steped up and curled in the free kick to make it 2-0 in favour of the Sky Blue Stars.
The Nduka Ugbade team will travel to Uyo for a date with Akwa United on Sunday in a matchday 6 fixture.
