Police FC maintains FKFPL lead
Mohamed Bajaber, Kenya's new fan favourite, was on the scoresheet helping his team overcome an obstacle in Posta Rangers to reclaim the Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) top spot heading into matchday 26.
The Kenya Police forward was yet again on target as his team brushed aside the mailmen in their hard-earned narrow One-nil victory at the Machakos Stadium on Sunday, March 30.
The 22-year-old has shown impressive football since his Harambee Stars debut in a six-goal thriller draw to Gambia in the World Cup qualifiers.
The victory places the policemen at the FKFPL standings summit, a point ahead of Tusker FC, heading into the next round of Kenya's apex football league.

Gor-AFC Disappoint at Nyayo, records new high in ticket sales
The much-awaited Mashemeji derby ended goalless in front of a full-packed Nyayo stadium as K'ogalo and Ingwe played out to a barren draw on Sunday afternoon, March 30.
The teams failed to capitalise on the numerous chances created over 90 minutes, resulting in a lacklustre performance that left the charged fans frustrated.
However, the match saw AFC Leopards collect a total of Ksh. 7.3 million in match ticket sales, a record high in the FKFPL, as this season's first Mashemeji derby attracted a large number of fans from the two Kenyan football giants.
