Included in the squad is newly signed Burundian striker, Francis Mustafa. However trouble started brewing when Kogalo were booked in a sub par hotel. Coach Dylan Kerr and the players expressed reservations about the hotel.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is true, the players are unhappy with the hotel and we are trying to find an alternative. Basically the players want a hotel with facilities and amenities such as a swimming pool.&#8221; said team manager Jolawi Obondo according to Citizen FM.<\/p>\n<p>CECAFA chair Nicholas Musonye said he was working on resolving the issue.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The issue has been brought to my attention and we are sorting it out&#8221; said Musonye.<\/p>\n<p>Gor Mahia are in Tanzania in an attempt to win a trophy that they last won 33 years ago. Coach Dylan Kerr is wary about the glut of fixtures.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have the worst July of football coming up with tight fixtures. I want my players to go for it and show just how much in one year, we have grown, matured and developed into a strong unit.&#8221; said Kerr to goal.com<\/p>\n<p>However Kerr is optimistic that his side will overcome all opposition.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If we can focus on football and let our talents show it, it would be amazing for Kenya.&#8221; he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Gor Mahia are up against Azam who beat them in the finals in 2015 and Simba who recently snatched Meddie Kagere and also signed players from Cote&#8217;d Ivoire.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/gor-mahia-arrive-in-tanzania\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gor Mahia contingent arrived in Tanzania for the 2018 CECAFA club cup.
