During the meeting, the media personality could not resist poking fun at the second in command over their beloved Arsenal Football Club.

In what has become a popular phrase among Arsenal fans in recent years, Olale jokingly referred to the club as "Next Season FC," a playful jab at their ongoing inability to secure any significant trophies despite promising performances each season.

"It was all about that Next Season FC. Deputy President (Kithure Kindiki) and I support Arsenal and Murkomen supports Manchester United. I bantered them," Olale revealed in an interview with TUKO.co.ke.

Murkomen, an avid supporter of Manchester United, was also teased by Olale, especially given the club's underwhelming performance during the season.

With Manchester United currently languishing in 16th place in the Premier League, just two spots above the relegation zone, Murkomen’s support for the team became an easy target for Olale's playful remarks.

Despite the Gunners' recent disappointing results, including their failure to advance past Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-finals, Ruto continues to back the club.

The president had expressed hope that Arsenal could eliminate PSG and go on to win the prestigious tournament.
