Lekie’s Foundation for success
Good signings
The side in just their second season in the top-flight is a glaring example of a worthy champion. They had one of the best preparations for the season.
In terms of signings, they did the best business. Brought in over seven players from the then champions Awa Ladies. They splashed over a million to sign record-woman Brenda Tabe, brought in Momazim Brigette, adding to Marie Ngah Manga who turned out to be one of their best business.
Consistency defensively
The likes of Momazim, Mogai Mogai, Marthe Ongmahan have formed a resolute defence that repels everything across the season. Not only were they solid at the back they scored freely especially through their front three of Tabe, Nnanga and Manga.
In all, Lekie has been a worthy champion of the 2022/23 season, only suffered two defeats.
