The Football Awards night was the first of it’s kind by the football governing body, NFF, as they went all out to reward players and coaches in partnership with Aiteo.

Moses and Oshoala may have won the biggest awards of the night, but they weren’t the only ones who left with one in their hands.

2017 Nigeria Professional Football League, NPFL, winning coach, Kennedy Boboye of Plateau United, won the best coach award, with Chan Eagles star, Ikouwem Udoh beating Stephen Okey and Nura Muhammed to the young player of the year award.

Another winner on the night was Rasheedat Ajibade, who was named the women’s young player of the year, while Mountain of Fires and Miracles, MFM FC, star, Sikiru Olatunbosun’s screamer against Rangers International was named goal of the season.
