Former Zoo midfielder Danson Chetambe has been named the player of the month for May/June.
Chetambe played a significant role, scoring five goals in one month to help Zoo maintain their Kenyan Premier League status last season.
He has since switched his allegiance to Sportpesa Shield champions Bandari.
He is one of the key additions at the dockers ahead of their CAF Confederation Cup assignment.
Chetambe’s five goals in nine matches saw Zoo bag 15 points and eventually finish two places above the relegation zone.
“I am so pleased to win this award. It was a tough month for us (Zoo) because we were fighting relegation. I’m honoured that my effort has been recognised today though not with Zoo but now at Bandari,” he said after receiving the award at the Mbaraki Sports Club, Mombasa.

“I hope to carry on the good performance with Bandari and help the team win titles this season,” said Chetambe.
“It is going to be a tough season since we have the Confederation Cup, the league, Super Cup and also defending the Shield.”
Other contenders for the award were Tusker’s Boniface Muchiri, David Majak and Ulinzi Stars striker Enosh Ochieng.
