AFC Leopards coach Patrick Aussems has, once again, made the controversial “stupid” statement after he described a journalist as such during an interview in what he says was a mistaken identity.

“Know what your stupid, my friend, you are stupid because what was for? Not for me,” said Aussems.

“So you are stupid […] Don’t ask question anymore.”

In 2022, following a 1-1 draw with Sofapaka, Aussems used similar words to describe then assistant coach David Ouma.

When you are born stupid, you will remain stupid – there are some stupid guys who should learn from others and try to understand football,” he said in a post-match interview at Nyayo National Stadium on 13 March 2022.

It has been claimed it was mistaken identity but it still does not justify such behaviour from the coach of Kenya’s oldest football club. COURTESY.
