Nick Mwendwa: Man on the cross for Harambee Stars poor showing

The beautiful game of football has indeed experienced tremendous growth under the current leadership of Nick Mwendwa - a vocal and powerful Football Kenya Federation (FKF) President. Mwendwa is everything. He is football and football is Mwendwa. He seems to execute a number of roles from being a coach, a referee, the federation’s team manager, perfectly putting in use  his knowledge of Information Technology. His critics say there is nothing that a gung-ho Mwendwa can’t do.

Under his leadership, Harambee Stars qualified for Africa Cup of Nations, in Cairo, Egypt for the first time since 2004. That was in 2019.?? It is under his good leadership that Stars managed to end a 15-year Afcon absence. In 2004, Mwendwa was just 27, though he already had the leadership ambitions of raising the standards of Kenyan football.
He won the the hearts of many football lovers;  though the reasons were varied. Mwendwa was, and still remains the only man with ability to re-ignite some hope that football fans in Kenya yearn for.
