Victor Wanyama has retired from football. He had 8 goals in the 64 games he played for Harambee Stars.
Id want to speak to players in the Kenyan Premier League and those aspiring footballers with hopes that they'd make it in this sphere.
Those who have had the privilege of talking/working with Victor will tell you that he was a funny human but, most importantly, one who was dedicated to his craft. Shy human in front of a crowd but a workaholic away from the cameras. He might not have been talented as some of his peers, but he hated distractions that came with the craft. This is the place that any aspiring footballer should be drawing his/her inspiration from.
Playing in the top five European Leagues isn't for everyone, and to me, he remains the best footballer we ever exported to Europe.

#UnpopularOpinion: @Seb_Desabre is a very good coach who deserves all the success in his game. Well done with @FecofaRdc and the Leopards but would he take @UgandaCranes to the @FIFAWorldCup this year? I don't think so. The quality and level of players in the DR Congo team is superior to the one we have. Imagine, @fistonmayele9 warms the bench, he would be our star here.
MPs are now warning: SHA is unsustainable. What does this mean for Kenyaโs health financing future?
