Wazito sign Okumu from Nairobi City Stars

Wazito FC have signed Kevin ‘Chumsy’ Okumu from Nairobi City Stars with the right-back’s arrival marking the sixth signing for the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) club.

The defender has been a cog in the Nairobi City Stars’ defense for the last couple of seasons and played an integral role in their promotion back to the top-flight last season.

“Finally I am here and I am really happy. Wazito has been my dream team for some time now and I am glad that the move has materialized.

“To the management and the fans, I want to tell them that I have come here to work hard and challenge for a position in the team. We have to finish in a better position than last season,” Okumu told wazito-fc.com.

Head coach Fred Ambani lauded his arrival, saying he was a good addition to the team.

“He is a young, talented, and hardworking player. In as much as we are working for immediate success, we have to build for the future and with players like him on board, we will have a good foundation.

“I have watched him play and I know that he will perfectly fit into our system, I am looking forward to working with him,” Ambani stated.

Wazito have already signed Vincent Oburu, Mark Otieno, Kevin Kimani, Boniface Omondi, and Edwin Omondi.
