Vurugu 3: Obinna shares fresh update on Salasya vs Andrew Kibe boxing match
By Valerian Khakayi, July 24, 2026Media personality Steve Thompson Maghana, widely known as Oga Obinna, has shared a fresh update on the highly anticipated boxing match between Mumias East MP Peter Salasya and media personality Andrew Kibe, revealing that preparations for the bout are already underway.
Speaking during an update on Thursday, July 23, 2036, about the Vurugu 3 boxing event, Obinna disclosed that Salasya has already signed his fight contract, leaving Kibe as the only fighter yet to put pen to paper.
According to Obinna, the event is now 50 per cent done following Salasya’s commitment, and he urged Kibe to sign his contract so the organisers can finalise the matchup.
“Tuko on. 50% done, Salasya has signed his contract, so mwambie Kibe asign yake,” Obinna said.
Boxing match schedule
Obinna says fighters have enough time to prepare, revealing that the boxing match is scheduled for December, giving both Salasya and Kibe several months to prepare physically for the showdown.
He encouraged both personalities to invest in proper training by joining a gym and working with professional trainers to ensure fans get an entertaining contest.
“The fight is in December, so they have enough time to train. Salasya has enough time to go to the gym and get a trainer, and Kibe has enough time to do the same. Let us make the money,” he added.
Call for financial investors
Beyond confirming progress on the fight, Obinna also appealed to individuals and sponsors interested in supporting the event to come on board and increase the prize pool.
He disclosed that the organisers have already raised Ksh 2 million but expressed confidence that the amount could grow significantly before the December event.
“For every other person mwenye anataka kuwekelea kwa hii fight ya Kibe na Salasya, now is the time kujeni muongeze hiyo pesa. Now we are Ksh 2 million, but I am sure we can make it bigger,” he said.
Vurugu 3 blockbuster fight
Obinna further revealed that the Salasya-Kibe clash will not be the only major attraction during Vurugu 3.
He confirmed that the event will also feature another highly anticipated boxing contest between internet personality Mbavu Destroyer and Somali boxer, promising fans an action-packed fight card in December.
“Remember the same December we have Mbavu Destroyer vs Somali boxer,” Obinna stated.
If Kibe signs the contract in the coming weeks, the much-talked-about showdown with Salasya is expected to headline one of Kenya’s biggest influencer boxing events of the year.
