Nsunge will not seek re-election and exits a seat he has occupied since 2018. Speaking to MmegiSport this week, Nsunge said he is taking a break from administrative duties. He believes his term is amongst the best in the club’s 58-year history. “It was the best. It is an honest fact, my reign was one of the best GU ever had. Remember during my term, GU won the FA Cup three times and the league once. This was one of the most successful periods we have had as a club and I believe I, alongside the committee that I was elected with, have done a stellar job,” Nsunge said.
Under Nsunge’s leadership, the club managed to reconcile with club investor and president, Nicholas Zakhem in 2018 following the 2016 fallout. GU were also at their best on the pitch as the team won the Orange FA Cup on three occasions and capped the success with a first league title in 13 years, winning the domestic crown in 2022. The Reds were set to assemble for the AGM at the start of the season but the meeting was postponed as members failed to form a quorum.
