Mamah opened the scoring in the 23rd minute, giving Samartex the lead.
He doubled the advantage in the 67th minute, sealing the win for the defending champions.
This victory moves Samartex to 8th place in the league standings with 38 points.
Legon Cities, on the other hand, failed to capitalize on their chances and suffered their third defeat in five matches.
