This year’s edition promises even greater spectacle. Among the headline additions to the squad is Harambee Stars forward Mohamed Bajaber, whose move has already generated significant buzz among Kenyan and Tanzanian fans alike.

Beyond football, the event has also carved its niche as an entertainment spectacle.
