Kenyans reduced to 'tears' online after Harambee Stars coach Paul Put’s resignation

Just months after taking over as Harambee Stars head coach, Paul Put has resigned.

The 61-year-old Belgian reportedly stepped down due to ‘personal reasons’, as confirmed by the Federation.

Stanly Okumbi will now take charge on an interim basis as the federation commences its search for a new coach.

Just like eradicating corruption and ethnicity in Kenya is just but a dream so is Harambee Stars performance. Paul Put resignation demonstrates poor FKF managerial skills and resistant to positive change by retaining locals who can bend for mediocrity other than professionalism.— DAN SUDI (@Dan_Sudi) February 20, 2018

@CarolRadull Paul Put is a man with criminal history (convicted of match fixing) he saves the kenyan game a lot of shame by the so called ‘resignation due to personal issues’

Paul Put recently helped harambee stars to win Cecafa challenge cup. Rumours indicate Fkf turned down his request to introduce his two assistants thereby knocking out Stanley okumbi...

Reports say Belgian Paul Put has resigned as Harambee Stars Coach. It seems he couldn't handle the incompetence and short-sightedness of FKF, whose officials just yap from morning till evening with nothing to show.— Francis Gaitho (????) (@Kenyafootball) February 19, 2018

So Harambee Stars coach Paul Put has resigned, barely 3 months into the job. It's hardly a surprise though. No self-respecting person can put up with the mediocrity and disorganization that permeates football administration in Kenya.
