Through the initiative of Mr Okengo, about 50 teams within Kisii County have benefited by receiving balls and uniforms.

Caleb Angwenyi said the initiative is based on supporting and promoting talents in the community.

“We are out here to engage in youth football activities and by doing so; we will stop them from being idle and start thinking of drug abuse and unlawful businesses, “said Angwenyi.

Angwenyi noted they have plans to start a bigger tournament in two weeks time which will involve two teams one from Kisii and another from Nyamira county.

“We urge those teams who have not registered with FKF to do so for them to be allowed to play.
