Amina Mohammed should incorporate him together with other retired Kenyan internationals who had an impact in the national team in the committee tasked with running football in Kenya for the next six months.Oliech believes that their experience as former players and football being their main area of concern would come in handy in helping the committee discharge its duties rightfully and to the benefit of football in the country.”We need to be on board. Mariga, Musa, and I. We need to be on the committee. If we are not there football in Kenya will never be up in the levels of Nigeria or Cameroon. I ask CS Amina to give us the job. That is my wish.

That is our area,” Oliech told Standard Digital.Dennis Oliech in stoppage time against Guinea.
