The huge expo that has locked Gor Mahia out of Kasarani

In the most shocking bit of news of the decade we are living in, it is emerging that Gor Mahia’s CAF Confederations Cup quarter-final first leg match might not be played at the Kasarani Stadium.

K’Ogallo are due to host RSB Berkane on the 7th of April in the aforementioned match but are at risk of missing out on their venue owing to a 4 day EXPO that is scheduled for the same venue.

The event dubbed as the ‘Chamgamka Kenya Shopping festival‘ will take place from the 3rd to 7th of next month, hereby colliding with Gor Mahia’s biggest and most important continental assignment of the past 15 years!

The event will be hosted by the Kenya Association of Manufacturers who will be celebrating their 60th anniversary and is a free entry family event that will also be graced by renowned Kenyans artists in the form of Nameless, Rabbit and Juacali.

Kenyans quickly took to Social Media to air their opinions on the issue…

@AMB_A_Mohammed I believe such a thing can't and will never happen under your tenure… it will be a big embarrassment that will put Kenya football on Africa's big screen. @OfficialGMFC can't be denied a venue coz of such an event. It's a continental match… #KasaraniStadium pic.twitter.com/lV98Nc3MA3

The results of Gor not playing..

@moscakenya,
Did you know that #Gor risks a CAF ban, if it doesn’t play its CAF Confederation quarter final fixtures against RS Berkane at #KasaraniStadium?
All because an EXPO, and not soccer a soccer game must be hosted on this green at MISC 🙁 #Sirkal pic.twitter.com/qh8b4xKdi9

I thought the SportsStadia management knew Gor Mahia had picked Kasarani for their home matches why this shenanigans again #KasaraniStadium

Should this happen, it would surely be the most embarrassing scenario ever witnessed in the History of the country’s embarrassing scenarios…
