Indefatigable defensive midfielder Geoffrey Ojunga is a delighted fellow following his recent move to Sofapaka FC and is looking forward to helping the 2009 Kenyan champions go for a top-three finish in the current FKF Premier League campaign.Ojunga made the switch to the 2009 champions from Western Stima, now Kisumu United, and is optimistic for a strong start with BatotoBaMungu.The midfielder had his first Premier League stint with Western Stima, one that ended with the team getting relegated after a disastrous campaign that saw them finish last on the log on points.FULL TIME Western Stima 3 – 2 AFC Leopards ’13 M.

It has been my desire career-wise to someday turn out for the top side, and I am glad I achieved one of my many desires. I was happy to have my first premier league experience, but it wasn’t a good one because, despite our spirited efforts full of challenges, the team got relegated to the second tire. As an aspiring young player, such an experience takes you back, but I am glad my efforts during the season earned me another chance, and I am delighted about it,” Ojunga told the club’s portal.The 20-year old midfielder is yet to play a game for Ken Odhiambo’s side but he is ready to give his best to the team when called upon at any time.”I dream to play my first match for the team as soon as possible, but I am well aware it will take time since I am new to the squad; however, I am ready to give my best and can’t wait for the moment. This is my second season in the premier league, and I am really excited to have another experience of it. More so, turning out for a top club has really got me motivated to make a statement and fight for honors because I am confident we can go by the team we currently have. I hope to settle in as quick as possible, and my main target for the season is to help push the team to a top three finish. It will be an achievement, and if we win any of the available trophies, it will be a huge plus to me,” he added.Sofapaka have not won another game since their opening day win over Nairobi City Stars at Wundanyi, a venue they will be hosting AFC Leopards over the weekend.
