Bayelsa Queens have pulled off a major coup in the Nigeria Women Football Premiership with the signing of the hottest striker in the league – Mercy Omokwo.
Mercy Omokwo, the star striker who dominated the 2022/2023 NWFL season, is now officially a permanent member of the Bayelsa Queens, departing from her former club, Delta Queens.
The former Confluence Queens sensation has inked a two-year deal with Bayelsa Queens, sealing her commitment to the team until 2025.
Her arrival is a cause for celebration among the fans who can’t wait to watch her in action on the field of play.
Last season, Mercy Omokwo played a pivotal role in Delta Queens’ triumphant campaign, which resulted in their first NWFL Premiership title in over a decade.
She remarkably emerged as the top goal scorer of the season, notching over nine goals in just 15 league appearances.
A defining moment in her career was her instrumental contribution to Delta Queens’ incredible 2-1 comeback victory against defending champions Bayelsa Queens in the NWFL Premiership Super Six final at the Stephen Keshi Stadium in Asaba. This victory crowned them champions.
Prior to her transfer, she also played a vital role in Delta Queens’ quest for a spot in the 2023 CAF Women’s Champions League, narrowly missing out during the WAFU-B Zonal Qualifiers in Benin City, Edo State.
This tenacious 23-year-old striker embarks on a fresh journey with a new team, gearing up for the upcoming NWFL campaign.
Bayelsa Queens and their fans eagerly await her contributions, expecting more thrilling moments on the pitch.
Elegbetetv, along with NWFL enthusiasts, will be thrilled to witness Mercy Omokwo’s performance and the excitement she brings to Bayelsa Queens.
