Shujaa legend Collins Injera has weighed in on the revolution of the side under Kevin Bling Wambua, hailing the impact new players like Patrick Odongo have brought to the team.
Though his boots have long been hung up, Collins Injera continues to make his mark both in rugby and in national service.
The former Shujaa star, widely regarded as Kenya’s greatest ever 7s player, has lauded the Kenya Rugby Union (KRU) for its ongoing efforts to secure partnerships that could restore Kenya's competitiveness on the world stage—despite confirmation that Shujaa will feature in the second-tier HSBC SVNS Division 2 league next season.
Injera, who cemented his legacy as perhaps the greatest Kenya 7s player Kenya has ever produced, is the all time top try scorer at World Series level for the country, having netted 279 tries before calling time on his career in February 2023.

Benni McCarthy’s Harambee Stars Get High Praise from Nigeria Coach as He Identifies Where Rising Stars Failed
Nigeria Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle has opened up on what has impressed him about Harambee Stars while giving Rising Stars tips on how to improve.
Since his retirement, Kenya have suffered the anonymity of being relegated to the Challenger Series, but they did win back promotion in 2024. Despite their return to the series, which even saw them reach one main cup final in Singapore, a recent format change by World Rugby meant the side will be playing in the second tier next season.
Regardless, Injera believes progress is being made to ensure the game returns to the upper echelons it belongs in under the leadership of Alexander ‘Sasha’ Mutai in a recent interview with NTV.
“The board is doing its best under Sasha Mutai and I hope it continues. If we keep getting such partners, it will solve alot. There are alot of things like salaries, medical care and other things involved and you need help for that.”
“If we can keep attracting sponsors to invest, it would be amazing.”
Injera: Patrick Odongo a confident player

Percy Tau: African Giants Hit Dead End in Attempt to Sign South African Forward
An African giant is likely to miss out on South African attacker Percy Tau, who they have been interested in, because of one major reason.

Injera has taken time to give the new young blood Kevin ‘Bling’ Wambua has brought on board, such as Daystar Falcons winger Patrick Odongo, who scored 21 tries this season.
Odongo's obvious asset is speed. Aged 19, he reportedly ran 9.99s for the 100m at the Kenyan national trials.
While it’s not known what tailwind he had that day (a tailwind must be less than 2.0 metres per second for a time to be classed as ‘wind legal’ by World Athletics) that time – if it is legal – would make him the fastest man to play the game at an elite level.
Injera has analysed what makes him special.
“I cannot say so but as you see, there are good players coming up like Patrick Odongo. He is a special player with alot of pace who has gained the confidence to dodge his opponents without fear of whether he can be stopped,” Injera said.

Gor Mahia Hold Internal Clash Amid Postponed Mashemeji Derby
Gor Mahia utilized their lack of a fixture this weekend with an in-house clash following their postponed Mashemeji Derby.
Injera also praised Co-Captain Samuel Asati, who was given the leadership role alongside George Ooro - or King George, but believes experienced players like Vincent Onyala and Tony Omondi need to be retained in order to help the side in their quest to become a core-top 8 side.
“There are players like Asati (Samuel) also coming up well, but I want to see the likes of Vincent Onyala and Tony Omondi retained because they have been part of the system for a while, and help the rest.
“What has always messed us is transition. If we can include players like this into the system, they can help these youngsters settle well.”
Life after rugby for Injera
)
In 2023, Injera has landed a new job at the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC), six months after retiring from rugby.
Injera, a communications graduate from Daystar University where he majored in Public Relations, had been working in the private sector even when he was playing but has now switched to public service.
Asked how he is enjoying it, Injera said: “ I work in the Senate now and that is why I am here. I now work in PR. I was working elsewhere, but when the opportunity came up, I said ‘why not?’ It is the same thing, still serving the nation.”
As for how he managed to curve a successful career for himself?“It was no secret. I was just disciplined enough to wake up at 4 AM daily. I was also determined and passionate, and I wanted to be better than I was before, as long as I added at least one percent every day.”
Collins Injera may no longer wear the Shujaa jersey, but his voice and presence continue to influence the direction of Kenyan rugby. With a foot in public service and a heart still in the game, Injera remains a torchbearer—helping guide both the next generation of rugby stars and his nation into a future full of promise.
