By CELLESTINE OLILOMore by this AuthorMathare United have lodged a protest against the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) Ltd for their insistence to bar them from putting up their new sponsor’s banners in their home matches. Club Chairman Bob Munroe on Monday wrote an official complaint to the league’s Independent Disciplinary and Complains Committee accusing both KPL and league sponsors SportPesa of unlawfully disallowing them from displaying the banners. Mathare United signed a long-term partnership with betting company Betway two months ago, and on September 26 the team showed up donning branded jerseys for the first time. The club has indefinitely postponed the unveiling ceremony that was to be held this week. The league organisers stated that the Zuku deal was in contravention to various clauses in their broadcast sponsorship with South African company SuperSport, and Ingwe had no choice but to cancel the deal.
