Ulinzi Stars have made changes to the technical bench with Benjamin Nyangweso being named as the new coach.
Nyangwe returns to top football management after one year out in the cold after he was stripped of the role following a disastrous 2017 campaign in the Kenyan Premier League.
But with the new changes made at the start of the 2018 campaign having borne no fruits, the soldiers did not look far as they seek for help to turn around the fortune of the side that has won just four league matches this season.
Nyangweso replaced Dunstan Nyaudo who has been elevated to the position of the Technical Director having served for one year and three months as the head of the technical bench.
Captain Kelvin Opuko takes over from Lt Calvince Ogweno as the Officer in Charge (OIC) having returned from official military duty while James Mulinge has been retained as assistant coach.
The Afraha based side boast of four wins and 10 draws in 17 matches after the first leg round of matches.
“Nyangweso has a decorated history with Ulinzi Stars and as a coach, we are all aware of what he has done with the team. He is a good game -reader and very tactical; he will also find it easy to settle in at the team, having been with us before.
“Nyaudo, on the other hand, is gifted technically and is among the top coaches we have in the country. These two working together is definitely a plus at the club and we believe that they will lead the team back to glory,” chairman Lt Col Erick Oloo was quoted by the UlinziStars.com.
Nyangweso won the league with the Soldiers in 2010 and lifted the Super 8 title the following year.
