When former President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Azimio leader Raila Odinga commissioned the renovation of Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Sportsground in Kisumu two years ago, residents were in jubilation at the mega plans.
Formerly known as Jomo Kenyatta Sportsground, the recreational centre was renamed to immortalise Kenya's first Vice President. The place which sits at the heart of the city is one of the most iconic places in Kisumu and was always full of people on vacation.
