Eunisell Limited, sponsor of the prestigious Eunisell Boot for the highest goal scorer in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) has announced Enyimba’s Chukwuemeka Obioma as winner of the award.
Obioma scored 16 goals to emerge as highest goal scorer in the just concluded 2022/23 Nigeria Premier League season and will receive N3.2million as well as the imposing Eunisell Boot.
Eunisell, West Africa’s largest independent chemical as well as oil and gas engineering solutions company, conceived the Eunisell Boot Award to instill greatness in players in the domestic top flight and celebrate their success story.
Obioma becomes the eighth player to win the imposing Eunisell Boot as a confirmation of his goal scoring prowess.
Eunisell placed a premium value of N200,000 for each goal scored by the top scorer.
Group Managing Director of Eunisell, Chika Ikenga, applauded Obioma for his form during the season.
“Our passion for Nigerian football and players’ advancement is evident with our sponsorship of the Eunisell Boot. We are excited that players look forward to winning this award.
“Obioma’s story is worthy of celebration as he has made goal scoring look like an easy task with two or more goals in a game.
“Two years ago (2021), he was unable to win the award despite scoring double digits. It is no surprise that his goals also contributed to the success of Enyimba”, he said.
Clearly the poster boy of the last season, Obioma will be decorated at a date and venue to be announced by Eunisell.
