Pangani bomber funded Majengo football team


The Pangani suicide bomber sponsored a football club in the Majengo slums, it can be revealed.

And terrorist Abdul Hajira was described as “extremely humble and generous” by members of the club.

Hajira sponsored Young Achievers Football Club, which he founded in August last year to help the slum’s poor youths develop their soccer talents.

Players told of a father-figure who, although only in his early twenties, dreamt of them featuring in the elite Kenya Premier League.
