Mwendwa shared a video online showing himself feeding hundreds of chickens at his expansive farm, attracting admiration from netizens impressed by his transition into agribusiness. In the clip, the former football boss is seen holding a bucket full of greens while surrounded by a massive flock of chickens eagerly feeding around him.
Accompanying the Facebook video was a caption highlighting the patience and dedication required to succeed in farming.
“Pure kienyeji. Patience over profit. Swiggo! 100k and counting,” Mwendwa wrote, suggesting that his poultry project has already grown significantly.
The phrase “100k and counting” appeared to hint at either the number of birds on the farm or the scale of production he has achieved so far.
The video also showcased a dusty but well-organised free-range setup, with chickens spread across a wide compound under trees. Wheelbarrows filled with feed could also be spotted at the farm, indicating a large-scale operation.

Many Kenyans praised Mwendwa for embracing farming and diversifying his income streams after his stint in football leadership.
Others noted that poultry farming, especially kienyeji chicken rearing, has increasingly become an attractive business venture due to the high demand for organic poultry products.
Mwendwa served as FKF president from 2016 until 2024 and remains one of the most recognisable figures in Kenyan football administration. His latest venture now paints the picture of a businessman focused on agriculture and long-term investment.
