The former defender has appealed to well wishers to help him secure employment with his accruing bills making things tough for him.
Former AFC Leopards defender Collins Kisuya has been forced to turn to social media to ask for help as life becomes tough for him.
Kisuya has sent a plea to well wishers to help him get a job to offset his accruing bills which he says have made life difficult for him in the last four years.
“Hello today good people…Kindly, asking for a job opportunity for any friend reading this. Been jobless for now 4 years and struggling with bills here and there. If anything positive, kindly contact me on 0745728295. Thanks and stay blessed,” Kisuya appealed through a Facebook post that has since been deleted.

FKFPL Kenya Police slash ticket prices for upcoming Shabana clash
Kenya Police FC has reducesd ticket prices for Shabana clash after criticism for high costs during Gor Mahia game.
Kisuya played for Leopards, Kakamega Homeboyz and Sony Sugar and also had a stint in Belgian, having travelled to the European country for trials in 2007 alongside other Kenyan stars such as Victor Wanyama, who was signed by Germinal Beerschot, Edwin Otieno and Johanna Omollo, both signed by CS Vise, Levy Mwaka and Anthony Kimani.
Kisuya also played for Vihiga United when the club was still in the Kenyan Premier League but left the side in unclear circumstances.
The player’s contract was terminated in March 2019 with the club claiming he had failed to attend training for close to a month but the player insisted he was going to seek legal redress since he was injured and was also mourning the death of his sister at the time.
“I twisted my ankle, lost my sister and all these happened in the same month. The club was aware of what was going on, why terminate my contract," Kisuya told GOAL at the time.
“They also did not give me the notice on the same; I have engaged a lawyer who has written a demand letter to them whereby failure to comply will leave me with no alternative but take further action."
During a past interview, Kisuya explained some of the skills he had that could become useful.
