False 10: You’ll never make such a legacy alone like Mo did

“I want to win something for this club.”It sounded simple at the time. Almost too simple.Mohamed Salah arrived at Liverpool in 2017 without noise, without guarantees, carrying little more than pace, a left foot, a bit of disappointment following a woeful Chelsea spell, and a sentence that would only make sense years later.Some players pass through clubs, and there are those rare ones who bend them, reshape them, leave fingerprints so deep that even time struggles to erase them.people just blindly follow twitter narratives unfortunately pic.twitter.com/piO5OLjdx4 https://t.co/h2K5CrHYnF— 🖤 (@fytbvro) March 26, 2026 Salah did not simply play for the Reds.

OPINION: How private investment will benefit WRC Safari Rally

On Sunday, 15 March, President William Ruto announced that the government would step back from funding the Safari Rally.While for many this marked the end of an era, I view it as a possible beginning of a more sustainable and accountable future for one of Kenya’s most iconic sporting events.For years, the Safari Rally, part of the prestigious World Rally Championship, has been a source of national pride, global attention, and economic activity.Download our Mozzart Sport app for more newsBut as with many state-funded ventures, questions around efficiency, accountability, and optimal use of resources have lingered in the background. The shift toward private sector control, therefore, seems more like a structural reset.At its core, the private sector operates on a fundamentally different model from government.
