Shabana FC grapples with ongoing online issues as their verified Facebook page remains inactive before a crucial Tusker match in Kenya.
Football Kenya Federation Premier League side Shabana FC have issued an update regarding their official verified Facebook page, which has been inactive for the past eight days.
Fans of the Glamour Boys have been left wondering about the lack of updates since the page was last active on September 29, just before the team's last Sunday FKFPL match against AFC Leopards.
