Kenya football is always characterised by side shows. From rowdy fans to indisciplined footballers. Most Kenyan footballers are known for sleeping around, entertaining women and being lazy, but a new crop of footballers has emerged keen to disprove this notion.

We have quite a number of players around who are married, but not all can make it to the power couple list. From Gor Mahia's Musa Mohammed to AFC Leopards' Eric Masika, these football power couples keep us talking.

Although the nature of being famous comes with both positive and negative consequences, these power couples have managed to keep their private lives from the public eye. Well, below is the list of four Kenyan football power couples, go through;

1. Musa Mohammed and Sakina Nshimirimana

Gor Mahia's defender Musa Mohammed is without a doubt the best player around. He is disciplined, humble and hardworking. The young lad has been instrumental in K'ogalo's success this season. Musa captained his side throughout the whole season and played all matches without missing any. He is married to the beautiful Rwandese woman; Sakina Nshimirimana who plays tennis. The power couple is blessed with a cute, adorable daughter.

2. Eric Masika And Nelly Tietie Masika

Eric Masika is one of the best defenders Kenya has ever produced but of late, the former Sunshine Secondary School alumni seems to be slowly sinking into oblivion. Masika is married to Nelly, a player for one of the top handball clubs in the country. The young couple is blessed with a daughter.

3. Ezekiel and Racheal Otuoma

The new football couple in town. Ezekiel recently tied the knot with his long time lover Racheal in a colourful wedding that saw many local football players in attendance. Ezekiel plays for the KPL side Ulinzi while his wife plays handball just like Nelly.
