"The teenager arrived on trials from Bondo United, and upon his arrival, Benard insisted on promoting him from the reserve team straight to the first team.
"He boldly insisted on giving a chance to Sylvain Omondi,a young rookie goalie on trial from GDC Nakuru, to be signed, and currently, Sylvain is competing for the Golden Gloves award. We have so many other examples that show his resilience and determination to bring glory to our club."
