Olisema’s goal wins Naija Super Eight best goal award

Organisers of the just-concluded Naija Super Eight Championship, Flykite Productions, have announced Cyril Olisema’s exceptional strike for Akwa United against Yobe Desert Stars, as the standout goal of the tournament.

In recognition of his remarkable goal, Olisema will receive a cash prize sponsored by Custodian Life Assurance Ltd.

Speaking on the sponsorship, Larry Ademeso, MD, Custodian Life Assurance Ltd, stated that the firm is delighted to be part of the competition, noting that the event gave the firm an avenue to drive better public understanding and benefits of life insurance.

“We are happy to be involved in the Naija Super Eight tournament. The tournament provided a platform to deepen the understanding of insurance and contribute to grassroots football in Nigeria. The tournament recorded exceptional goals, but Cyril’s brilliant strike was outstanding. His goal is truly deserving as the goal of the tournament.” Ademeso said.

Olisema exchanged a sequence of short passes with Osoba Kabir at the edge of the opponent’s box before elegantly curling the ball into the back of the net, doubling Akwa United’s lead to 2-0 against Yobe Desert Stars in the initial match of Group B.
