APR’s Congolese international Ndjoli Bokungu bagged a hat trick as the military side thumped Police Fc 7-1 at Nyamirambo stadium to keep the declining title hopes of the nine time national league champions alive.

Bokungu, who has now notched up eleven goals this season, opened the flood gates on 17th minute thanks to a flick on from Burundian international Fuadi Ndayisenga.

Former APR player Roger Tuyisenge scored Police’s a consolation on 70th minute.

Police remains eighth with 22 points from in 19 matches.
