Njogu, who is also an MCA, has taken to social media to vent out his frustration at the circumstances that forced him to resign as Murang'a Seal coach.
Immediate former Murang’a Seal head coach John Njogu has spoken candidly about the emotional turmoil that led to his abrupt exit from the club, hinting at betrayal from within the camp.
Njogu, who also serves as a member of the Gitothua ward in Ruiru, Kiambu County, stepped into the hot seat at Murang’a Seal late in 2024 following the departure of Abdallah Juma.
However, his stint ended on a sour note after a crushing 3-0 defeat to Shabana at the Gusii Stadium last Sunday, a result that left Seal dangling just a point above the relegation zone.

'I play for him'- Ronney Onyango out to make his late father proud after being unveiled by Norwegian club
Ronney Onyango has officially joined Sogndal Fotball with the aim of honouring his late father.
In the aftermath of his resignation, the club moved swiftly to appoint former Harambee Stars assistant coach Yusuf Chipo in a bid to rescue their season.
While Njogu initially appeared to take the move in stride — even congratulating Chipo on his appointment and expressing a desire to learn from the experienced tactician — his recent comments paint a different picture.
The former coach took to social media to air out his frustrations, lamenting the internal struggles that he says made his job untenable.
"The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies; it comes from those you trust the most," Njogu wrote in a cryptic yet emotionally charged Facebook post.

Former Gor Mahia coach Johnathan McKinstry unleashes scathing criticism of local Kenyan players
Johnathan McKinstry has unleashed a scathing criticism of local Kenyan players in regards to securing moves abroad compared to their West African counterparts.
"I will live to tell a story of how unlucky a coach can be; doing every effort possible to turn things around and keep the fans and everyone happy, only to learn that the boat is sinking because we gave lift to carpenters who decided to carry their tools to work inside the boat, poking holes and letting the water in."
He closed his post with a message of hope: “Lakini Mungu yupo (But God is there).”
At the time of Chipo’s appointment, Njogu had sounded upbeat, describing it as an opportunity for growth.
"Every young coach like myself would love to learn from him. I look forward to gaining some experience and knowledge from him.

As Murang’a Seal battles for survival in the FKF Premier League, it remains to be seen whether the change in leadership will bring the stability and results the club so desperately needs.
