The Cabinet Secretary for ICT Eliud Owalo finally made good on his promise to Gor Mahia by delivering a state-of-the-art bus five months after making the promise.
CS Owalo coughed a colossal sum of 23 million Kenyan shillings through the Eliud Owalo Foundation to acquire the Isuzu 42-seater, dedicated to transporting the 20-time Kenyan Premier League champions.
What are the stand-out features of the new Gor Mahia bus?
Key features of Gor Mahia’s new bus (number plate: KDN 068N) include a symbolic representation of the club’s founding year, 1968.
The fully luxurious POLO G2 boasts a 2×2 seat configuration, with four VIP seats, all equipped as recliners.
Noteworthy amenities encompass galaxy roof lighting, piped music, foldable TVs, and USB charging sockets.

Why is the bus registered under the Eliud Owalo Foundation?
Crucially, the new bus was registered under the Eliud Owalo Foundation, a strategic move aimed at protecting it from potential auctions.
The move guards it against being subject to auction by creditors seeking to recover their funds, a predicament Gor Mahia has encountered in the past.

After fulfilling his promise of securing a brand-new bus, CS Owalo promised to help Gor Mahia acquire their own stadium and clubhouse.
“We promised you a bus, and I have delivered. Now, we want to go a step further. We have a bus, and the next destination is to secure a clubhouse and a stadium,” said CS Owalo.
A devoted Gor Mahia fan, Owalo believes that a club of Gor Mahia’s stature deserves infrastructure that aligns with its societal standing.
