Fatai Osho has been appointed as the head coach of Kogi United on Tuesday in succession to Yomi Elijah who resigned last week.

The coach who resigned his role as the boss of Supreme Court will be taking charge of the Wada Boys for the second time, having had a stint with the team in the 2013/14 Nigeria National League season.

Osho has signed a contract that will link him from July 1 this year until the end of the NNL season.

A number of men were linked with the job, but the management of the club led by Abdul Sule opted for the ex-Remo Stars gaffer.

Osho earned his spurs while at Remo Stars. He is known to be as a dedicated and highly driven coach.

He has established a reputation for tactical acumen and his ability to rebuild teams.

His trusted right hand man Shola Adewuyi was appointed as his assistant.
