KF Premier League side AFC Leopards have shifted their home matches for the 2023-24 season from Nyayo Stadium to Bukhungu Stadium in Kakamega.

With the new top-flight campaign set to kick off on August 26, Ingwe chairman Dan Shikanda has confirmed they have already registered Bukhungu, which also hosts home matches for Kakamega Homeboyz, as their home venue until the opening of Nyayo Stadium, which is currently closed for renovation by the government.

“I can confirm we have registered Bukhungu as our preferred home venue until Nyayo Stadium is opened after the renovation work,” Shikanda told People Sports, adding: “So it means our opening match of the season against FC Talanta will be played in Kakamega.” Shikanda further confirmed Ingwe will pitch a week-long residential camp in Mumias to prepare for the new season. “We will depart Nairobi for Mumias on Sunday to continue our preparations.”
