The Championship – which kicked off on Monday – is part of the Airtel Rising Stars program, a soccer talent initiative that has focused on identifying and nurturing soccer talent from the grassroots onto a national stage. It will culminate in an invite-only party at Nairobi’s prestigious Carnivore nightclub celebrating the launch of 2face’s most soulful album yet: Away and Beyond.
