Rachier emphasized that fans who purchased tickets for the original May 11 fixture will be entitled to refunds, citing the differences in planning and pricing between the two venues.

“We won’t charge the same amount as we had intended for the Nairobi game.”
With the move to Homa Bay, Gor Mahia aims to make the match accessible to fans in the region while adjusting to the realities of a new venue and its associated costs.

Despite the excitement of bringing top-flight football to Homa Bay, Rachier expressed reservations about the safety of the Raila Odinga Stadium.
The facility is scheduled to host Madaraka Day celebrations on June 1, just a day before the derby.
“It is a risky thing to do, but what next? The league has to end and there is no venue,” he said, highlighting the challenges of securing an appropriate location.
Still, Rachier confirmed that Gor Mahia and the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) had agreed on the use of the stadium.
“We will have to do a lot of planning to ensure adequate safety during the match,” he noted, while also recognizing the benefit of playing the match closer to Gor Mahia’s fans in the Nyanza region.
