Meagre Harambee Stars allowance trends on Twitter


Football lovers on Tuesday took to social media to react to reports that Harambee Stars players are paid a daily camping allowance of Sh750.

The fans expressed their rage under the #harambeestarsallowance hashtag that trended for the better part of Tuesday morning.

Fans were unanimous that the Sh750 daily allowance is not sufficient to neither motivate the players nor  cater for their basic needs.

Harambee Stars are preparing to face Sierra Leone away on June 10, in the opening game of the 2019 Africa Nations Cup qualifiers.

Already, a number of players namely Kenneth Muguna, Timothy Otieno, Harun Shakava and Duncan Otieno opted to travel to Tanzania with their respective clubs to compete in the inaugural SportPesa Super Cup tournament.

The foursome are reported to have been lured by among other things, the attractive camping allowance.
