He further mentioned that the sponsorship deal will benefit not only the football team but also opens avenues for other sports disciplines within the Prisons Service, such as athletics and netball.
He stated, "Our sponsorship deal is not an accident, it's a step in the right direction, and I would like to appreciate the works done by the Maroons FC board.”
“We are a club with a rich history and a rich potential, and may this partnership be the beginning of greater things for both Maroons and Ngetta Holdings."
