A few seasons back, Yanga's right defender Kibwana Shomari once came up with the phrase 'There is work in my work' at that time meaning the responsibility to perform his duties as a player
Kibwana used that phrase before the signing of Yao Kouassi but later that phrase was used against him after he lost his place to Yao
But the performance Kibwana is showing since the arrival of coach Sead Ramovic is like he has changed the wind and it is probably now correct to say 'Yao has a work to do'
This season has been difficult for Yao who is suffering from frequent injuries but with what Kibwana is doing, no one questions his absence
After a long absence in international matches, on Saturday Kibwana was returned and played against TP Mazembe in a game in which Yanga emerged with a 3-1 victory
It is clear that even when Yao returns after recovery, his dominance in the defensive line on the right side will be severely tested
In addition, the ability to be used as a left guard gives more advantages to Kibwana who can also challenge Chadrack Boka, Kibabage and Israel Mwenda who signed up in this small window
