Simba’s Rwanda midfielder Patrick Mafisango increased the tally ten minutes later to pile up misery on the premiership new arrivals at their base in Arusha.
The match attended by a mammoth crowd divided the stadium in two sections as fans cheered the host and the visitors throughout.
JKT Oljoro played well but it was inexperience that cost the dearly as Simba tightened grip to defend the early two goals cushion.
The host side’s player Omar Juma was sent off with seven minutes to the end of the regulation time, Juma was allegedly the source of the post-match chaos that spoiled the stadium’s atmosphere with police standing well to control the brawl.
