Hi Origi, I can still vividly recall that October 2011 Saturday afternoon in Kampala, Uganda, when you single handedly saved Kenya from the shame of being trashed by Uganda in the presence of thousands of travelling fans, including Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka.
On that day, every other Harambee Stars player had their tail between their legs but boy, didn't you stand tall and firm in that goal!
Actually, 99% per cent of your performances in Kenya's goal have been so outstanding and reassuring to long suffering Kenyan fans. Every time you have been absent because of injury, we have conceded goals quite stupidly.
Unfortunately, because of these injuries, you have decided to abandon Harambee Stars without a worthy replacement in sight. I know how unrewarding it is to don a Kenyan national team shirt and take the field. What with unending politicking by football chiefs at the expense of caring for players' welfare?
For a Kenyan player, it is more often than not an act of sacrifice to heed a call to national team duty. Even when you are injured, you have to seek treatment back at your club while greedy football chiefs shed crocodile tears, bask in the glory in which they have had little, if any, input, or bandy around unbelievable excuses in case of defeat.
In spite of all that, as an adoring fan of yours, I beseech you to rescind your decision to quit Harambee Stars. Play for us some more, great son of Kenya.
