Sponsor demands an apology from Gor Mahia.


Gor Mahia football club must own up and apologize for the violence and the destruction of property caused by their fans after the team failed to win the Kenyan Premier League title. Football stakeholders among them the Football Kenya Federation and team sponsors Tuzo, have challenged the club to take necessary steps to avoid pushing corporate away. Gor fans were accused of vandalism along Jogoo road on Saturday, after a 1-1 draw against Thika United denied them the trophy.

Tuzo through the parent company Brookside Dairy Limited, condemned the acts of hooliganism, adding that the incident is likely to jeopardize the relationship with the club. According to the dairy company, Gor Mahia should issue a public apology and give an assurance that such acts would not happen. Gor Mahia club had itself to blame, as the title was theirs to lose. They now go for the 18th year without a trophy, although credit goes to their coach for lifting them from relegation to just a whisker away from lifting the trophy. But just as sad, ‘Almost doesn’t count’.
