Just getting used to the new environment.”Looking forward to the next few weeks, Odera believes that he will need to bolster the squad with a few signings – set to be completed in the coming days.Ulinzi Stars defender Omar Mbongi departs”We will need to add more bodies,” Odera said. “The focus shouldn’t be so much on the loss but how we tackle the next match days.”Wazito lie in 17th position in the league, something Odera says won’t affect him or the team.”The standings are not final, we will be good, ” he said.
