The player scored five goals in the league and a brace in the state’s Federation Cup to take his tally to seven so far.
Adigun told newsmen at the team’s training ground in Ilorin that he was not after any award but determined to see his team regain promotion to the premiership.
“I am only working hard to see that my goals help the Afonja Warriors pick one of the available promotion tickets in Division A of the NNL,’’ he said.
Adigun, a former defender with Shooting Stars Sport Club (3SC) of Ibadan, said he was delighted to join Kwara United at the beginning of the season.
“Playing at home has always be in my mind,’’ the Kwara born defender added.
According to him, there are only few differences between Kwara United and 3SC and described both teams fans as passionate.
He also described his Coach, Samson Unuanel, as one of the best in the country and pledged to justify the confidence he reposed in him.
He said that the NNL was a tougher than the Premier League, saying that there were opportunity to express oneself in the Premier League than the NNL.
Kwara United currently occupies the seventh position on the NNL with 17 points from 11 games and plus five goals difference.
The Afonja Warriors will host Spotslight of Katsina on April 26 in Ilorin in a week 12 clash.
