Simba SC's Mkude would have remained unknown without me - Kihwelo

The 27-year old midfielder has been on the limelight in recent days after skipping national team training camp and admitted he drinks alcohol

Former Simba SC assistant coach Jamhuri Kihwelo has claimed he played a great role in helping midfielder Jonas Mkude remain and be an important figure at the club.

Mkude, who has been serving Simba since 2012, has been in the limelight in recent weeks after he skipped Taiafa Stars' training camp and also admitted he drinks alcohol but with limitations.

Kihwelo, who served Simba under French coach Patrick Liewg, claimed Mkude was never trusted and he had to stick with him on numerous occasions.
