Gor Mahia midfield star Enock Morrison has dedicated his individual accolades from the 2025/26 SportPesa League season to the club’s late patron, Raila Odinga.
Morrison was one of the biggest winners during the SportPesa League Gala Awards held at the Glee Hotel in Nairobi on Thursday night, where he was named both the Midfielder of the Season and the league’s Most Valuable Player (MVP). His outstanding performances were instrumental in helping Gor Mahia reclaim the league title and secure a record-extending 22nd championship.
Following his award-winning campaign, the Ghanaian midfielder paid tribute to the late Raila Odinga, a towering figure in Gor Mahia’s history whose support and leadership left a lasting impact on the club and its supporters.
“I want to start by saying ‘asante sana’ to the Kenyan community for giving me a home away from home and for providing such an incredible support system,” Morrison said.
“Winning this award is truly special, and I want to dedicate it to the late Raila Odinga and my beloved mother. Thank you for your support; this award is also for you.”
Morrison’s dedication adds emotional significance to an already memorable season for K’Ogalo. Throughout the campaign, he emerged as the heartbeat of Charles Akonnor’s side, combining creativity, leadership, and consistency in midfield as Gor Mahia fought off strong competition to return to the summit of Kenyan football.
The midfielder beat fellow nominees to claim the league’s top individual prize, capping a season in which he established himself as one of the most influential players in the SportPesa League. His performances earned widespread recognition from fans, coaches, and football stakeholders alike.
Morrison’s gesture is likely to resonate deeply with the Gor Mahia faithful, many of whom continue to honour Raila Odinga’s contribution to the club’s growth and success. The dedication serves as a reminder of the strong bond between the club’s current generation and the legacy of leaders who helped shape its rich history.
