"I am very happy to take another win home after my victory at Ruiru,” Wakhu said. “This gives me immense confidence heading into the remaining legs. I’ve put a lot of work into my game, and it’s paying off. I want to thank my team and everyone who has supported me, and I hope to maintain this momentum for the rest of the season.”
