It was funny because I liked Olunga and to date, I watch so many of his videos. I like how he plays, his aggressiveness and eye for goal and I want to follow in his footpath,” Joshua said in the club’s magazine.The Brewers have seen some of their strikers in the recent past secure moves out of the country including Allan Wanga, Jesse Were, Olunga, and recently Henry Meja.*⃣ 8 FKFPL goals. – Police, Mathare United (Hattrick), Bidco, Sofapaka, Wazito, Sharks.*⃣ 2 CAF Champions League qualification round goals. – Arta Solar 7 ( Home and Away)*⃣ 1 FKF Super Cup goal – Gor Mahia.Besides his consistency on the field, Ibra is just a proper human. https://t.co/u6EOUjjXg8— Murimi Njiru (@muriminjirujnr) March 15, 2022 Further, Joshua is looking forward to winning his maiden league title in his career as well as to returning to continental action, and to do that has implored his teammates to ensure they work as a team in their remaining matches.”I have never won a top league anywhere and so it would mean a lot for me if I won it in Kenya with Tusker. I want to do my best to help my team in the remaining matches and I am confident we can do it. I also want to see us going back to the big stage. Playing in the CAF Champions League. We need to work as a team. If you look at ants, not one builds the ant-hill it is the collective effort of every ant. If we can take that example, and everyone puts in the effort, I believe we can do it,” he added.However, it is unlikely that the Tanzanian will play a part in any of the remaining two matches for the Brewers owing to his engagement with the Taifa Stars.
