According to &#8220;Lule&#8221; , a poor tactical approach and misplaced priorities doomed Kenya.<br \/>\n\u201cWhat was the point in promising the team Sh1 million when it could have been put into the preparation,\u201d Oluoch posed in response to FKF President Sam Nyamweya\u2019s promise had Kenya beaten Zambia. \u201cIt also points to general malaise in the game. Poor priorities not helped by basic mistakes by the coaching staff,\u201d Oluoch charged when he spoke to the Standard<\/p>\n<p>Kenya only had a few days of preparation and did not play any friendlies. In stark contrast, the Zambians were in camp for several weeks.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/gormahia.net\/images\/lule-stamp.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lule pictured to the right at a recent football event<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Lule further faulted the technical approach deployed by coach Bobby Williamson which saw him deploy two defensive midfielders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe technical bench did not set up the team to win by having two defensive midfielders in Wanyama (Victor) and Okoth (Collins).<\/p>\n<p>In the eyes of many observers, Harambee stars lucked creativity. Many have been wondering what happened to midfielders like Francis Kahata and Peter Opiyo who can add a creative dimension to the middle of the park.<br \/>\n&#8220;Lule&#8221; also questioned the rationale of fielding players who were clubless and hence lacked match fitness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy on earth would the coaches load the team with players who obviously lacked match fitness having been clubless for a while?\u201d<br \/>\nposed &#8220;Lule&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The Zambian federation is run by Kalusha Bwalya who is a former player whereas the Kenyan federation is run by people who do not seem to have the slightest clue how to build a winning. This makes it imperative that FKF elects people who actually know how to create a winning culture.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 317px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/gormahia.net\/images\/lule-stamp2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"271\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lule during his playing days<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Nahashon Oluoch was one of the stars of the Gor Mahia side that reached the Africa cup in 1979. At the time he was a secondary school student, yet he was voted one of the top 10 players in Africa and was a candidate for Africa player of the year. His most memorable event came at the CECAFA cup finals of 1980 when he scored the winner to enable Gor Mahia to beat arch rivals AFC Leopards 3-2 in the final. In 1982 he left for the USA to pursue a football scholarship. He was a member of the Alabama A&amp;M Team that was ranked as the number one team in USA college soccer in 1984.To this day, Lule is considered the most talented forward ever to play for Gor Mahia.<\/p>\n<p>He returned in 1989 and became a lecturer at Egerton University. He is also a businessman. He has been involved in football activities in Nakuru and was at one time trying to revive Nyanam FC which along with Abeingo FC was one of the top teams in Nakuru during the 1970s.<\/p>\n<p>With his background, &#8220;Lule&#8221; would it seems would make an excellent federation chair. However the odds of beating Nyamweya are low. Despite his poor record, the delegates will likely vote for him again given that he puts money in their pocket. In essence, our culture of selfishness and greed is killing football. <\/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-legend-lule-faults-fkf\/\"\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>Gor Mahia and Harambee stars legend Nahashon Oluoch &#8220;Lule&#8221; who is aspiring to be the next FKF chairman has faulted<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7351","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7351","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7351"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7351\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7358,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7351\/revisions\/7358"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7351"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7351"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7351"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
