Nairobi Archives was a hive of activity on Sunday, May 31, 2026, as Gor Mahia fans and those of the club’s persuasion embarked on early celebration ahead of the official crowning of the new Kenyan champions.
The fans started streaming at the famous spot near the Tom Mboya effigy at around noon with songs and dances rending the air as others warmed their musical drums and other instruments ahead of their triumphant trip to Nyayo National Stadium.
FKF finale
Charles Akonor’s team hosts Nairobi United this Sunday, May 31, 2026, at 3:00 pm as the FKF PL league marks its climax before being presented with the league crown later in the day.
As part of the process for the final crowning moment, the fans resumed their long-held tradition of a pilgrimage to the renowned statue prior to their calvary to the match venue.
Gor reclaimed the title after losing it to Kenya Police FC in 2025. They also lost the FKF Cup in the final against their match-day opponents.
The club bounced back in the season, shrugging off fierce challenges from perennial arch rivals AFC Leopards to bag the prize with two games left to the concluded season.
