Okrah has signed a two-year contract with the Lions of Msimbazi after passing his medical examination and all personal terms agreed upon.
The 28-year-old returned to Bechem at the beginning of the 2021-22 campaign after parting ways with Asante Kotoko SC.
He has been lethal for the Hunters this season since he rejoined them where he has scored 14 goals in 32 matches in the Ghana Premier League with Bechem finishing at the 3rd position, the club’s best position in the Ghanaian top-flight.
Okrah has also been instrumental for Bechem having helped them reach the finals of the FA Cup as he scored a screamer in the semi-finals against Aduana Stars. He scored 3 goals in 5 games in the cup competition.
He was the top scorer of the Ghana Premier League in the 2013-14 season with 16 goals during his first stint with Bechem.
Okrah later moved to Swedish side BK Hacken on loan before joining Sudanese giants Al Merreikh the following year. He later joined Merreikh’s rivals Al Hilal Omdurman after a season.
He has also played for NorthEast United in India and the Egyptian side Smouha SC.
