The decision arises from a pending matter involving Gucha Stars, who secured a High Court order for their match against Nakuru Bucks from last season to be replayed.
In their official ruling, the Committee stated: “Kibera Black Stars caused the abandonment of the match. Consequently… the match shall be awarded to APS Bomet FC on a 2-0 score, 3 points basis.”
The team, led by head coach Nicholas Muyoti, now boasts a record of 19 wins, 9 draws and 4 losses in the current campaign. They've also scored 48 goals and conceded 22.
APS Bomet CEO Rose Chemtai also expressed gratitude, noting that this sponsorship is a significant boost for the team, which has struggled financially in the past.
The outcome of this situation will be keenly watched, as it could set a precedent for future mergers and franchise changes in Kenyan football.
