Don't get the rationale, what is the business case for sponsoring an anonymous English club, Kenyans will still focus on their Arsenal/Man-U slave masters. Can Sportspesa compete with the Russian oligarchs and the ME petro-dollars

Why not throw all that money at KPL, get it more organized, buy equity in many of the struggling sides and wait to reap rewards in future. Its the longer harder road to take but has the highest upside.

For crying out loud, roll out a Diamond league styled athletics comp in Kenya or Africa, take it to all the major towns/cities and see yourself hitting it big.

I could go on all day about the sporting opportunities I see in Kenya that this guys have ignored

Do kenyans even bother to go watch those athletics competition when they are held in the various parts of the country, or even those volleyball competitions, despite both being successful sports regionally and internationally for Kenya.
Leave alone everyone else, how many parents attend their kids sporting events, like those high school games.

Kenya hakuna sporting opportunities, we just love our booze and politics.

This sponsorship is part of the reason why 'Alternative investment-Sport pesa' section is quiet nowadays, it shows guys are losing money inorder for sportpesa to sponsor foreign teams. Betting is a zero sum game.
