"Omino will be the team's Technical Director, he will be responsible for bringing in talented players through his scouting and help where the team is weak. He has enough knowledge to help the technical bench, but that does not mean he will interfere with the coach's work.

"We will give our best to ensure the team remains in the Kenyan Premier League beyond this season."

Stima is 16th with 22 points and was held to a barren draw by Homeboyz on Wednesday.
