By DAVID KWALIMWAMore by this AuthorAFC Leopards and Gor Mahia players will contest Sunday’s SportPesa Premier League “Mashemeji derby” on an improved playing surface at the Nyayo National Stadium. “When the request came in from the Kenyan Premier League people earlier this week, we were forced to consider it on an exceptional basis. By Wednesday evening, final touches were being done on the visibly vastly improved playing surface by the facility workers. In a related development, Mbii confirmed that a new tartan track has been laid at the stadium and is ready for use. The closure of both Nyayo and Kasarani stadium this season has forced the eight Nairobi-based Premier League clubs to shift their matches to Nakuru, Mombasa, Machakos, Kisumu and Mumias.
