Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Gasogi United forward Serge Kabanda has been voted as Primus National League player of the month for January 2024.<\/p>\n

The youngster won the monthly accolade beating off competition from APR midfielder Jean Bosco Ruboneka, AS Kigali’s Jean Bosco Akayezu and Musanze striker Solomon Adeyinka.<\/p>\n

Kabanda was promoted to the Gasogi senior team ahead of the second round of the league campaign following the departure of Maxwell Djoumeku.<\/p>\n

He since settled in the team quickly and enjoyed impressive performance in January. One of the most notable performances form the forward was against Rayon Sports when he scored a brace to help his team stun the Blues 2-1 at Kigali Pele Stadium on January 12.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am so excited for this award and I thank my teammates and the coach for helping me to achieve this. I am going to work hard to improve my performance,\u201d Kabanda said after receiving his Rwf1,000,000 cheque for the award during the awarding night on ISIBO TV on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, AS Kigali coach Guy Bukasa won the award after going unbeaten in January and also not conceding a goal in 270 minutes of football. He drew goalless with Bugesera on January 13, pipped Kiyovu 1-0 on January 20 before wrapping up the month with another 1-0 victory over Gasogi on January 27.<\/p>\n

Sunrise FC’s winger Brian Ssali also saw his goal on the 2-1 victory over Police FC in Nyagatare on January 14 being named as the best goal of the month.<\/p>\n

Rayon Sports goalkeeper Khadime Ndiaye also saw his superb save against Gorilla named save of the month.<\/p>\n

Winners for the coach of the month, save of the month and goal of the months walked away with Rwf300,000 each.<\/p>\n

The monthly awards are organised by Rwanda FA in partnership with Rwanda Premier League Board and Gorilla Games.<\/p>\n
