For his outstanding performance, the former Gor Mahia defender was awarded a cash prize of Ksh 75,000.

Wangaya scooped Players’ award

Omollo’s success comes a few days after Nairobi United player Kevin Wangaya scooped the Players’ award for the same month.

The Kenya U-20 international becomes the second youngest winner of the accolade, following in the footsteps of Kariobangi Sharks’ teenage star Humphrey Aroko, 17, who claimed the award in February.

The 20-year-old, who has featured across all Kenya’s youth national teams and harbours ambitions of representing Harambee Stars at the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, delivered a standout month, registering three goals and three assists in five matches as Nairobi United went unbeaten.

He opened the scoring in three separate matches – against Mathare United, Posta Rangers, and Mara Sugar – each time giving his side immediate control and a psychological edge.

His two assists against Murang’a Seal saw the team rally from a 2-0 deficit to win 4-2 in one of the games of the season.

Finishing runners up was Police FC keeper Daniel Ogembo, who recorded four clean sheets, and Naibois teammate Michael Karamor, who netted five goals during the month.

Wangaya took home Kes. 50,000 and a customized trophy.
