MOFA FC from Migori county, suffered a 3-0 loss in the hands of Fortune Sacco FC, on May 18 to miss the ticket to the National Super League. But with talks ongoing with Rainbow FC, it is only a matter of time before they join the second-tier division.
Previously, Rainbow maintained high standards, paid well and also aided players' moves to greener pastures, with captain Ryan Ogam recently joining Dubai's Third Division side, Elite Falcons.
However, Tyronne Karuki's move to Spain's Nastic Academy hit a snag, after both parties failed to agree on the transfer fee and the club was accused by fans of greed after they allegedly asked for large sums of money.
With time, cracks emerged and financial muscles reduced as players complained of non-payment of salaries and allowances for months.
The club admitted to facing financial challenges due to the rise in the cost of doing business and also couldn't meet the conditions set for club licensing, including having a youth and women's team.
Okumbi confirmed they bowed out due to the club licensing rules.
