Shirandula: AFC Leopards lead Kenyans to mourn fan and TV actor

AFC Leopards have suffered a blow after long-serving fan Charles Bukeko, popularly known as Papa Shirandula, passed away.

Shirandula, who was a lifetime member of the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) giants, died at Karen Hospital on Saturday, having tested positive for Covid-19.

The burly Shirandula, who was also a TV actor and rose to fame after doing the Coca-Cola advert in 2007, always attended Ingwe matches especially the Mashemeji derby against rivals Gor Mahia.

“We are sad to learn about the sudden death of our super fan and member Charles Bukeko,” Ingwe wrote on their Twitter handle.
