Topflight side AS Kigali have announced the appointment of Congolese tactician Guy Bukasa as their new head coach for an unspecified duration. Bukasa, 36, succeeds Andre Casa Mbungo who resigned from the coaching role on November 30, leaving the club without a substantive head coach. Shaban Mbarushimana has been acting in that position. Bukasa is expected to revive the dwindling fortunes of the club and lift them back to the higher ranks of the league table. The club now sits 15th on the league table with 15 points after 15 games of the first round.
