Wazito have lost just once in their last five league fixtures and are out of the automatic relegation places.
Wazito FC head coach Charles Odera has revealed the reason his side has enjoyed a good run of form which has taken them out of the automatic relegation places this season.
The Muhoroni-based outfit started the season woefully before interim head coach Jephas Odongo abandoned ship to join Kakamega Homeboyz as assistant coach to Patrick Odhiambo after which Odera took the reigns as coach.

FKFPL What Tusker must do to pip stuttering Gor Mahia to the title as Vihiga are relegated, Mathare on the brink
The brewers received a huge boost following K’Ogalo’s Mashemeji derby loss to AFC Leopards and host Johnathan McKinstry’s men next in a game that will define the destiny of the league crown
The tactician took charge of the club after leaving APS Bomet, who he had guided to promotion to the top flight last season before the Sports Disputes Tribunal (SDT) upheld the decision by FKF to declare last season null and void.
In his first 20 games in charge, Wazito failed to register a win, but have now lost just once in their last five encounters, a run of form which has taken them out of the automatic relegation places.
Odera reveals that hard work coupled with teamwork has helped them in their battle against relegation this season.

FKFPL Nairobi City Stars suspend key player over match-fixing claims
The striker has been given conditions to adhere to and failure to, will force the club will go public over the matter.
“The boys have found morale because they have been motivated by the management,” he said, “We stressed the importance of teamwork and hard work,” he added.
"We informed them that our position was not good. We are taking every game as a final as always. The boys have been following my instructions tactically and they are willing and enthusiastic, wanting to learn all the time because they are coming from division one and two clubs.”
Wazito made several signings from the lower division clubs, which understandably affected their run in the topflight given their lack of experience at first, but Odera insists that their adaptation levels are another reason behind their run of form.
“It was challenging to get these players to get to grips with the topflight of this country. When they saw the bigger clubs, such as Tusker and Gor Mahia, they would crawl into fear, but now, they are over that.
“I believe our performance against Tusker (despite the 2-0 loss in April) gave them confidence. They are no longer affected by stage fright or being star-struck anymore.”
