Fast rising Gor Mahia forward Benson Omala has added another accolade to his trophy cabinet after claiming the club’s April Player of the Month.The former Western Stima forward fended off strong opposition from the club’s midfielders Peter Lwasa and Alpha Onyango who also had outstanding performances in the month of April. 🟢 | MATCH RESULTS FULL TIME: KCB 0 – 1 GOR MAHIA ( ⚽️ – Benson Omalla ) 💪💪#Sirkal | https://t.co/Hc8koPGJrr pic.twitter.com/xgvN2isOD4— GOR MAHIA FC (@OfficialGMFC) April 23, 2022 The 20-year-old garnered 61% of the votes cast by fans online with Lwasa coming a distant second with 22% of the votes as Alpha finished third with 17%.Omala netted the match winner in the 1-0 victory over KCB back on Saturday 23 April which handed them a slight hope of reclaiming the title that have since been dashed.Lwasa and Alpha did not manage to get on the score sheet in April but put in impressive shifts in midfield particularly in the barren draw against Tusker.April was not the best of months for Gor Mahia as they managed only two wins in four games and were able to only net three goals in the process. The other goals came from George ‘Blackberry’ Odhiambo and Perminus Ochola who all netted in the 2-1 win over relegation threatened Wazito FC.Samuel Onyango named Gor Mahia’s March finestDespite the goals, Perminus and Blackberry failed to earn a nomination to the club’s monthly gong with the former also chipping in with two clean sheets in April. Other players who have laid their hands on the monthly award this season include Frank Odhiambo who has since departed to Sweden, Austin Odhiambo, Boniface Omondi, Samuel Onyango and George Odhiambo.
