Making his first start of the season, the K’Ogalo captain rolled back the years and delivered a masterclass as Gor Mahia hammered Kariobangi Sharks 4-1 on Tuesday night. Calm, commanding, and fearless, this was leadership in its rawest form.
Coach Charles Akonnor could not hide his joy after the final whistle:
“I am so happy with Philemon. It was his first start and he had a very good game. He has been a loyal servant of this team and deserves all the good things.”
And truly, who deserves it more?
From the first whistle to the last, Otieno marshalled the defence like a true captain, barking orders, winning battles, and reminding everyone why you never write off a K’Ogalo soldier. On January 6, 2026, Kasarani didn’t just witness a win — it witnessed the return of authority.
Loyalty. Leadership. Legacy.
Philemon Otieno is K’Ogalo. K’Ogalo is Philemon. 💚🔥
Bring us the table… we want to sit!
