"As an experienced player, I have to tell my teammates that if you want to be called a great player, you have to win matches like this (against APR)," Kayumba told Times Sport ahead of the game with the defending League Champions on Friday.

Kayumba, who has been ever-present at the back for Mukura Victory Sports also noted that the match against APR is very essential to them as the army club is a top team.

"We consider Friday's game at Kigali Pele Stadium as an important outing because APR is one of the biggest teams in Rwanda."

The accomplished guardsman reiterated that the main objective of Mukura Victory Sports in this campaign is to finish on a high.

"The 2022/23 season, we finished 6th. Now, we have to do everything to be in the top three."

Mukura is currently 6th on the Primus National League table with 9 points from six games having won two, drawn three, and lost one.
