Veteran tactician John ‘Bobby’ Ogolla Wednesday parted ways with Football Kenya Federation Premier League returnees Kenya Police.
Alongside the Australian Lukas Tott who served as the team’s technical director, the duo was sacked after being in charge of the law enforcers in 21 matches this season.
“The owners of the team have made a decision and I respect it. Let the (newly appointed technical bench) also try their luck,” said Ogolla.
“In life you move on after things like this. I just want to focus on my life. People think coaching is easy but it is not,” added Ogolla.
Former Gor Mahia assistant coach Sammy ‘Pamzo’ Omollo and Harambee Stars legend Musa Otieno have been appointed to steer the team.

Kenya Police has not won in seven matches, despite boasting some big names like Clifton Miheso, Musa Mohammed, Elvis Rupia, Harun Shakava, Eric Juma, and Francis Kahata.
On Tuesday, they played out a 1-1 draw against KCB in what was the last match for Ogolla.
They sit 13th on the log on 24 points from 21 matches, though Miheso is the league’s leading goal scorer having seen the back of the net 10 times.
