Football Kenya Federation Premier League side Vihiga United have appointed Mike Muriri as the new head coach after Sammy Okoth failed to report to work. Mururi returns to step in the shoes of the man who replaced him in April 2019 after Vihiga sent him packing due to unimpressive results. His first real test will be in a league encounter against Mathare United on Sunday. On January 11, Yakhama and head coach Sammy Okoth tendered their resignation letters to club management after allegedly toiling for six months without pay. “Okoth and I handed in our resignation letters because of the circumstances surrounding us,” Yakhama had said then.
