Biography: My journalism skills were sharpened at the prestigious Kenya Institute of Mass Communication before Moi University filled a few gaps. I have worked for several big Radio stations in Kenya, as well as Tanzania's Azam TV, and sports magazine. Well, I have been at home, here at GOAL, since 2015, and the best part is I cover the game I love, football, in Mzansi and African football at large.

My Football Story: I support the biggest team in London, Arsenal, and the best team in South Africa, Kaizer Chiefs. I have played competitive football in Kenya, where I turned out for a fourth-tier side, playing alongside some big names like former Harambee Star Innocent Mutiso. My love for journalism made me avoid the top tiers during my prime.

Areas of Expertise:

The Premier Soccer League, South Africa

Favourite Football Memory: Well, let's forget about me playing against the then Dylan Kerr-led Gor Mahia, who beat my team 7-0 a couple of years ago! The most recent memory was seeing El Capitan Yusuf Maart scoring that winning goal against Orlando Pirates in the 2024/25 Nedbank Cup final! Oh my! I had waited for a decade to celebrate Chiefs' triumph in a major competition.

    The Glamour Boys are experiencing a tough run that has seen them get eliminated from competitions in the ongoing campaign. The Amakhosi management recently stated that a CAF Champions League slot for the team will be enough, but the supporters want more. Currently, the Soweto giants are trailing both Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns by 14 points.

    The Glamour Boys' chances of finishing the season without silverware are high after crashing out of the Nedbank Cup and CAF Inter-club competition in recent weeks. The Soweto giants are limping in the Premier Soccer League as well, leaving the defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns and old rivals Orlando Pirates to fight for the title in a two horse race.

    There have been questions about the availability and fitness of the 'Master Chef' who has been used sparingly by the Sea Robbers after the conclusion of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) with Bafana Bafana. The Buccaneers have been relying on other players in midfield despite the quality of the former Mamelodi Sundowns star who joined the club at the beginning of the season.

    The Soweto giants are having a nightmare as they continue struggling to get results in competitive outings. Despite the massive signings made in the off-season transfer window, the Glamour Boys are almost guaranteed a trophyless 2025/26 season. They are trailing the league leaders by 11 points following the most recent defeat. And, the club's fans are making their feelings clear about the position Amakhosi find themselves in.

  2. Officials to blame? Kaizer Chiefs were denied a legit goal!

    Amakhosi fans are frustrated following their team's poor run in the last five outings across all competitions. The Soweto giants are at risk of ending the season trophyless after falling short in the Carling Knockout, Nedbank Cup, and, most recently, CAF Confederation Cup. Their only hope is in the Premier Soccer League, where they are facing stiff competition from Orlando Pirates and defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns.
