Kisumu Day promise secret weapon to take down Agoro Sare

The tough talking Kisumu Day coach Booker Odhiambo has pledged to unleash a ‘secret weapon’ to revive their hopes of playing in the National Secondary Schools Term Two Games.

Kisumu Day were beaten 6-7 on penalties by Agoro Sare in the Nyanza Region boys’ football final before lodging a protest against the winners.

The complaint targeted the legibility of Godfrey Omondi, a former student at Buruburu High School who featured for Agoro Sare during their triumphant campaign.

But the Nyanza Region Secondary School Sports Association dismissed that appeal over lack of evidence, allowing Agoro Sare to go on and represent the region in what will be their football team’s first ever appearance at a national championship.

"They successfully countered my plan A but I want to assure them of a plan B and C which are now my secret weapons and yet to be unveiled.

“My next move will come as a shocker. Do not be surprised to see Kisumu Day play at the oncoming National Games,” Odhiambo said.

The Nyanza Regional Director of Education, Nelson Sifuna, defended the decision of the commissars saying they only deliberated on the specifics of the appeal that was before them.

"Unless Kisumu Day reappeals, the Victory of Agoro Sare is upheld because the commissars dealt with the matter that was before them during the hearing of the appeal," he asserted.

The National Games will be held in Kakamega County from August 6-12.
