The Kenyan Premier League (KPL) official broadcaster, SuperSport graced new heights on Friday 1 August with the launch of two new magazine shows that will see monthly coverage of Kenya’s most successful clubs, Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards. The launch, held at the Nyayo National Stadium will see latest news, features, interviews and fans’ reactions from the two team’s followers aired in the programs – Ingwe Pulse for the AFC Leopards faithful and Gor TV for the KPL champions’ followers. Lauded SuperSport Both clubs’ chairmen; Allan Kasavuli (AFC Leopards) and Ambrose Rachier (Gor Mahia) were present at the launch and lauded SuperSport for the move, noting that it generates not only a platform for open engagement from the fans to the top management but opens new avenues for players to see themselves as well. With a light touch, Rachier went on to say the broadcaster has been responsible for most of his players’ exodus in search of better prospects from more advanced leagues with Teddy Akumu, Ivo Mapunda, Kevin Omondi and Donald Mosoti the most recent movers. Chairmen’s reactions -I would like to thank SuperSport for the exposure given to players; it has led to immense gains for the players. The TV initiative is great for the players and it will sell them more…and indeed SuperSport has been responsible for my players’ exodus. -It is for their own good that they are exposed and we say thanks to the broadcaster for opening up these prospects, Rachier noted. -This gives us mileage as a league, clubs and is good for the players as well as fans because it gives a platform for the exchange of ideas and general contribution as well as exposing our players. We support it fully and we say thanks to SuperSport, Kasavuli said. You can follow the two shows on Twitter @IngwePulse and @GorMahiaTV.
