MashemejiDerby | Madaraka Day Edition – Homabay County

   #MashemejiDerby | Madaraka Day Edition – Homabay County  
This weekend, the Sports Tourism Limited team was honored to attend the legendary #MashemejiDerby in Homabay County, a special feature in this year’s Madaraka Day celebrations.
Bringing one of Kenya’s biggest football rivalries to the lakeside was more than just a match—it was a statement. A statement that #SportsTourism is alive, thriving, and belongs in every corner of our great nation.

From the roaring fans to the scenic beauty of Homabay, the event showcased the powerful role of sports in uniting people, creating economic opportunities, and driving regional pride.

Inclusion of the Derby in the national celebrations is a major step forward.

• It brings visibility to new destinations.
• It reinforces our belief that sports can be a vehicle for tourism growth and national cohesion.
  

Presence of leaders including Raila Odinga the host Governor Gladys Wanga among key leaders brought pomp and colour to the event.

  
We commend the organizers, local leadership, and all partners who made this historic moment possible. Let's keep pushing boundaries—sports belongs to every Kenyan.
