You don’t become a Gor Mahia fan, you are born one
Gor Mahia fans celebrate in the streets of Nairobi after defeating Bidco United 1-0 in their FKF Premier League match at Nyayo National Stadium on Sunday, March 12, 2023.
The best part of it is that, just like citizenship by birth, which can never be revoked by the State, being born a Gor Mahia fan is a lifelong privilege
Let’s face it. Kenya is a country that is badly afflicted by tribalism. Our political leaders will dispute this fact, but show me one politician in the current National Assembly, the Senate or even in the Council of Governors who claims not to have been elected on the numerical strength of the native speakers of his or her tribe and I will show you a liar.
In every election cycle these politicians will happily retreat ‘home’ to bribe, coerce, manipulate or even cheat their tribesmen and women out of their votes.
