Left back Stephen Bulugu is staying focused on the patience lane as he waits to fully recover from a recent injury.
Bulugu, an offseason signing from Muhoroni Youth, has so far missed on making the squads in the opening three games against Bidco United, Mara Sugar, and AFC Leopards.

“A slight injury has kept me out from my debut but it’s only a matter of time and I will be ready to feature for the team,” said the Tanzania national
Beyond the wait, Bulugu is enjoying his time at Simba wa Nairobi since his arrival.
“In the short time I have been here, City Stars has already become my big family. Everyone has become a close friend. I feel well guided so far and I am happy to be part of the establishment,”
“Training has been good and I must thank the technical bench for the clear structure they deploy,” he added
Bulugu came in as a direct replacement for Dennis Wanjala who pursued other interests upon expiry of his tenure. He is one of three new faces signed besides centre back Brian Opinde, flyer Andre Kalama, and midfielder James Ssemambo.
The four were accompanied to City Stars by the returning defensive mid Sven Yidah who made his way back after two seasons out.
Bulugu will don jersey no. 22 this season.
