Harambee Stars and Gor Mahia goalkeeper trainer Mathew Owino Ottamax has called on the government and football authorities to compensate the families of football fans who died on the evening of Saturday 23 October during the Mashemeji derby between AFC Leopards and Gor Mahia, at the Nyayo National Stadium.

On the fateful night, Ottomax (pictured) stormed onto the pitch amidst rain of blows from the security personal, stopping the match as he tried to divert the attention of the match officials to Gate 2-where the stampede had broken out.
