Kibwana appointed new Bandari CEO

Tony Kibwana has been appointed as the new Bandari FC’s Chief Executive in an acting capacity, the FKF Premier League club’s vice-chairman Twaha Mbarak has confirmed.

Kibwana, a former footballer who also serves as Head of Security at the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA), takes over from Hajj Masemo.

Mbaraka said the handing-over ceremony was presided over by KPA Board of Directors chairman Benjamin Tayari at the KPA offices in Mombasa.

"Tony is replacing Masemo who is unwell and we wish him quick recovery. We have full confidence in Kibwana and tell our fans that they should support the management as we want to improve player welfare and results of the team,” Twaha said.

Bandari are 12th on the league standings with ten points, nine adrift leaders Posta Rangers and Twaha is confident the latest change in leadership will held steady its ship.

"We plead with our fans to show up in large numbers for today's match against Kenya Police Fc and also for Sunday's match against Shabana Fc because their strength is also very important in this process of trying to improve our results in the league,” Twaha added.
