Sulumba was signed form rivals Mighty Be Foward Wanderers but kick-started the league campaign with Bullets in their goalless draw against Moyale Barracks which he was culprit for missing a penalty.

On Sunday, he was  superbly in form and registered his name in the score sheet 10 minutes into the game  when he zipped a cracking shot.

However, the People’s Team looked more determined to defend the title  and through Nikiza Aimable, they  scored on 39 minutes.
