Kenyan Premier League [KPL] reigning champions Gor Mahia will on Tuesday 13 May 1000Hrs officially unveil an insurance deal at the City Stadium after the conclusion of talks that have been ongoing.
The club’s official site has confirmed that the deal will have the players, technical bench staff and their families covered incase of an unfortunate incident in the course of play as is common in football.
Beneficiaries
-The deal will see Gor Mahia players and technical bench staff and their families benefit from a renewable Kshs 15 million shillings kitty over a period of one year. The deal becomes the clubs first ever deal in history.
The negotiations have been ongoing for the last three months though the details have remained scanty but it is now clear that 30 playing unit members, seven technical bench staff and up to three members of their dependants will be covered.
The club recently saw off its contract with Dairy Company Tuzo and has been in search of a sponsor since earlier in the season.
Let’s cross our fingers and see what happens. We have been there before only to be disappointed at the end
Yes , EC thanks for heeding to my call and a this paves way for the grand ‘ a million man’s march’ our goal, 1 million kogallo die hards , yote wazekana !!!!!
However remember 350100, is still what we live and die for.
Thanks to the Almighty Father. We shall overcome
@Dan Original, please have faith.
@Mwakio P, I have the faith but at times i have really felt it when a deal falls through. Remember the Bamburi, Keroche etc . However I believe we are on the right path.
For the fans we should make sure that the difference between us and shemejis is as clear as the difference between daylight and night as concerning behaviours. I saw a few of us throwing missiles onto the field on saturday and only stopped when Musa and Kizito appealed for calm indicating that it was too early to lose hope of winning the match.
Mr.Mwakio ua prayers has never bn adrop in ocean but true n made in believe thank u sir as much as iwould hav wished 2b in top 100fan iknow it wont b possible coz of work 2moro but that aside Ko’gallo lead others follows.Org.Sec plz cordinate with branches in Nairobi alone w’r more than 50branches by 100member by 1k atarget 4r 2wks,God bless Gormahia God bless kenya.
When this deal surfaced sometime back I raised the issue of EC’s priorities.
I asked whether insurance cover will pay the players’ rent, school fees 4 the dependants, purchase food 4 their families etc etc but I was lambasted & called a turncoat.
Well it has now come 2 pass & the gallant GM players r not being paid on time or in full.
THIS DEAL WILL ONLY MAKE SENSE IF THE BASIC ISSUE OF SALARIES/ALLOWANCES IS SORTED OUT AS THE FIRST PRIORITY.
TRANSFER CASH SPENDING SEASON IS ALSO BECKONING!
@oduor12, my friend you have missed a point here. We better start from somewhere and other things will follow suit. Clubs like Gor Mahia should have at least 10 sponsors e.g medical, playing kits, training kits, track suits, away kits, home kits etc as these depends on the negotiation processes.
All sponsors names can appear on space allocated and there will be every space for every sponsor.
@ODUOR12 as @Mwakio has said this time you have surely missed the point.The sponsor has an insurance unit which they want to promote and they have chosen to do just that. When this talks were going on we still had other suitors including TUZO to take the main mandate which unfortunately didn’t materialize. We still need more sponsors evven if it’s just to provide water to the players. The many the merrier. Let’s not be ungrateful at every gesture yet at this time we are ‘begging’ for support for the club.Let’s learn to appreciate the small offers from all and sundry since our pride will take us nowhere. On the players welfare let’s continue to 350100.
our Market Value is 350100. any sponsor should match and outmatch the amount otherwise no deal.
Please contribute
May God give us strength to overcome all these obstracture we will gain at the end
