Laughing out loudly funny people, they are annoyed at receiving cash, but one can understand them they feel bad receiving cash from rural poor peasants who skip a meal to send some sms in the hope of being lifted out of poverty.

I wish they would sponsor a mitaani / grassroots football tournament like sakata ball.

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.


Last I checked the athletics meets are very popular. You can actually have a very successful circuit in Kenya.



Very true @Obi. Kenyans love athletics and will throng those stadias. They just need to give it some glamour so that those 'fellows' who attend Masaku 7s without any clue on matters rugby can attend...

And the Volleyball meets have very many fans as well...You enjoy the game as you also kula na macho....



that's prison vs pipeline


Why don't you post photos of the Kenya volleyball queens at Kasarani Gym.

Infact I have never heard of Hull city despite them being in the EPL (Ok I don't watch EPL)so other than they being in the EPL they are no names.

To support Kenyan football you don't only have to sponsor tournaments........ buy full kits for thousands of players old and small in all counties, lease/buy football grounds and brand them sport pesa, open football academies, so many things can be done with those pounds!
If i were competitors like akina mcheza i would milk this story mpaka sportpesa warudishe pesa nyumbani coz i don't see how wazungus will leave akina bet365 to place their bets in sport pesa if at all that's the expansion they're looking at.

Ukimalizana na footbal, kuna volleyball, hockey, rugby, golf, taekwondo, chess, scrabble the list is endless

Someone explain to me the ROI for sport pesa please!

Why not? When someone is betting does it matter whether the co if from the US, Swiss, Hong kong, China, Mongolia, Cayman islands or KE? What matters are the winnings. Sportpesa plans to expand worldwide and this deal will give them global exposure, audience and customers. Soon they will be making billions per day. They are the next bet365. #ThinkBIG

a fool and his money are soon parted. i think it's foolish to bet but it's also foolish to sponsor hull city with proceedings from betting in africa. sponsoring africans redistributes it back to the economy you are raiding in the 1st place. hata ikiibiwa... bado iko hapa kenya. someone will buy a house... buy a car... promote some local business. ikienda Hull city watasema asante sana and forget about you. Even with Aid, the donor insists that you use a company from their country and if you don't pick say an american for a USAID RFP for some amounts you need to justify why you are not. Vuta pande yako. i think the move is naive but who am I to advice people on how best to burn their cash. Tukusanye nyingi tupatie Safaricom waende watafute ka-club spain wawapatie.
