It will be used mostly to pay allowances and purchase kits. Rangers vice chairman Gichuki Njeru said the money come in handy and will use it to motivate the players in their remaining league matches.
“This is a big motivation for our players and we will ensure they are well rewarded so that they can perform even better in the remaining matches of the league.
“We are promising you as our sponsors that we will finish among the top four,” he said.
