Dr. Shikanda is putting in all his efforts and his power of thinking is now bearing fruits. The oldest club in the country is in the process of acquiring its piece of land which was given by former President Arap Moi. This is a huge step in the arm of the club. Apart from putting in place structures for administration, Dr. Shikanda has made some good progress in line with sponsors for the club.

On a scale of 1 to 10, www.goodmorningkenya.com gives Dr. Dan Shikanda 8 out of 10 scores for his acumen, organization skills, and leadership ability. If you compare him to the longest-serving Chairman of Gor Mahia, Dr. Shikanda is showing signs of being one of the best club presidents in the country.

Just like any other organization in the world, for leopards to climb to the top, it requires huge amounts of energy and Shikanda is providing that impetus. Support him and support the club!
