Nkana football  club might not have managed  to win  the MTN/FAZ  super league but talisman Walter Bwalya has written his name in the history books of Zambian Football.

The former  Forest Rangers man scored a whooping 24 goals to win the 2016 MTN/FAZ  super league golden boot. Bwalya beat his closest  rival Jesse  Jackson Were  with  9 goals.

The last time anyone scored more than 18 goals was in 2009 when Patrick  Kabamba won the golden boot with his 20 strikes. This is an amazing feet for any African striker playing their trade on the continent.

A quick research  carried out by soka25east has revealed that the Nkana goal machine might be Africa’s finest goal poacher.

Top goalscorers in 8 top African Leagues

Algeria – Mohamed Zubya 13 goals 2015/16 season

South Africa – Collins  Mbesuma 14 goals  2015/16 season

Kenya-John Makwata 15 goals 2016

Nigeria- Godwin Obaje 18 goals 2016

Tanzania-Amissi Tambwe 21 goals 2015/16 season

Zambia-Walter Bwalya 24 goals 2016

They numbers don’t lie, surely his goal haul this season has been phenomenal and his announced his arrival on the African football scene. Is he the best in Africa ?, well time will tell as at now Africa has noticed and awaits to see what next  from the man from Chilata.
