On Monday, a delegation from Nation Media Group (NMG) led by chief executive officer Stephen Gitagama paid a courtesy call on Ulinzi Stars at the Kabete Barracks in Nairobi.
The visit was a follow-up of Saturday's friendly match between Ulinzi Stars and Nation FC, which the soldiers won 3-1 at St Mary's School, Nairobi.
Gitagama expressed his pleasure at the team's performance and promised to boost their camp if they finish top three in the Kenyan Premier League. 'As NMG, we will continue highlighting your successes and we look forward to playing more friendly matches and engaging more in future,' he said.
Ulinzi Stars chairman, Lt. Col. Erick Oloo, thanked NMG for the gesture and pledged to sustain the military side while also giving an opportunity to talented and deserving civilians to play for Ulinzi Stars.
Ulinzi Stars, fresh from their 1-0 win over Shield champions Bandari FC, face Kariobangi Sharks in their next league match in Machakos on Thursday.
