The former Flying Eagles striker scored twice and delivered an assist for coach-less Lillestrom to beat Sandefjord 4-2 at home.
He hit target in the 18th and 37th minutes, before he delivered the assist in the 67th minute to make it 4-1 in favour of the home team.
Last season, the big centre-forward was his team’s leading scorer with eight goals in his first season in the Norwegian top league.
On Sunday, Akor and his teammates had to put behind them the shock departure of Geir Bakke to Valerenga to win in front of their fans.
The striker’s goals should now generate more interest for him to make a major transfer this summer.
Lillestrom have now climbed to sixth in the standings with 23 points from 13 matches.
