The Camerounian, who is leading the Ghana Premier League top scorer’s chart with 13 goals, scored five goals in January to earn the top award.

Etouga was also adjudged the Most Valuable Player in two matches. He beat off competition from Yaw Annor of Ashantigold and Umar Bashiru of Karela FC for the award.

He is expected to receive a NASCO television set as his prize from Electroland Ghana Limited, sponsors of the award.

It was double delight for Kotoko whose head coach, Prosper Narteh Ogum, won the NASCO Coach of the Month award for the second time this season.

Coach Ogum won his first award in November before adding a second prize after leading his team in an unbeaten run -four wins and a draw in five matches - in January.

He beat off competition from his Medeama SC counterpart, Umar Abdul Rabi, Karela FC coach, Bismark Kobby Mensah, and Coach Kassim Mingle of Bechem United.

Coach Ogum will receive a 43-inch NASCO TV set as his reward.
