Abdullah Ahmed: I can spend a whole day watching football highlights

By Njambi Mungai | 9yrs ago | 2 min read

I work at HELB as a contact center Agent. I am also a football analyst, a profession I started since I was in school.

Family

I was born in Kilifi Village Kilifi County. My family lives in Kilifi; Father, Mother and 5 siblings (3 sisters and 2 brothers). I went to a local Primary and High school before joining KIMC in 2009 to study journalism.

Achievements

During my 3 years at KIMC I was appointed the Head of Sports and also the Chairman of KIMC Muslim Association. Was an intern at Citizen TV from Jan 2012 to April 2012 where I used to report for Nipashe.

I did football analysis on KBC Channel 1 my highlight being the WORLD CUP 2014 which was held in Brazil and did live analysis of Kenya vs Lesotho from Nyayo National Stadium on 3rd August 2014. I also did analysis of the AFCON 2015 and the Kenyan Premier League.

I have a Facebook page known as UCHANGANUZI VIWANJANI where I discuss matters football with my followers.

Hobbies

I love swimming, watching and playing football and also a video game freak (PlayStation)

Embarrassing Moment

When I was in High school, my father was called by the principal to discuss why my academic performance had gone down, I thought my dad would be on my side but he went on and told the principal how I gave more attention to football and video games than studies.

Interesting Facts

I can spend a whole day watching football highlights, analysis and documentaries. I love listening to John Dykes (a renowned sports analyst) who is also my role model.

I love telling the truth and I hate lies

I love action packed and investigative type of movies, I hate series because I feel it’s a waste of time.

Philosophies

I try as much as possible to live by the principles of Islam and that helps me interact well with everyone I meet in my life.
