The notice is given pursuant to Article 16(1) (b) of the constitution of the club, 2019 concluded, the letter.
While several candidates have already announced their interest in elective posts, chairman Ambrose Rachier who has been at the helm of the club since 2008 had hinted of not defending his seat.
However, the most successful club chairman in Kenya who has seen KO’gallo grab nine KPL titles in the last 12 years may still stay on board, as outlined in the 2019 constitution.
"Article XI of the constitution of Gor Mahia 2019 provides that elections shall be held every four years with a reelection of one term only,"
"This new constitution was adopted to comply with the Sports Act 2013 and became effective when Gor filed it with the Sports Registrar on July 7, 2020."
This means that the officials who were elected under the 2020 constitution are now completing their first term and are eligible for reelection.
