Wikki Tourists striker, Victor Yakubu, scored twice to help his team defeat 3SC 2-0 in a Glo Premier League match on Sunday.
Yakubu has now put himself top of the scorers’ chart just after day one of the Nigerian top flight.
The Wikki striker scored his goals in each with the first coming in the sixth minute of the game. He netted his second goal from a spot kick in the 56th minute.
Another newly-promoted side, Gabros FC, also got off to a superb start in the season with a two-nil defeat of Warri Wolves.
Michael Onuoha’s fourth minute goal was the first of the Glo Premier League season before Onyekachi Nwaiwu sealed the win for Gabros with an insurance goal.
Lobi Stars were just 20 minutes away from an away win when Eric Frimpong cancelled Obioma Arinze’s 43rd minute goal. Bayelsa United shared the points with Lobi.
Enyimba were profligate in front of goal as their former manager, Zachary Baraje led Akwa United to secure a goalless draw at the Enyimba Stadium.
