He however made an immediate impact, as he provided a sublime assist pass to put his team ahead 0–1 against the home side, Academica, to make his debut for the club a remarkable one.
Even though they eventually surrounded the 0-1lead to end the match at 1-1, having conceded a last minute equalizer from their opponents, Okwara has already done enough by the impression he made in the game to underline his relevance and how pivotal he would be to Amora’s aspirations this season.
