Tributes for the late Raila Odinga continued to flow as the Kenyan sporting fraternity celebrated the departed hero on his burial date on Sunday, October 19, 2025.

Nairobi United FC paid fitting tribute to the ODM leader in the CAF Confederation Cup second-round tie against Etoile Du Sahel at the Nyayo National Stadium.

 During the clash, Naibois recognised the departed hero with a jersey printed 80 and the word: Baba during the crucial first leg of the continental tie.

Nicholas Muyoti’s charges claimed a priceless 2-0 advantage in the match, and celebrated the goals with a jersey printed to honour the fallen hero.

The tributes extended beyond Kenya’s frontiers, with the Romanian Women’s Premier League observing a moment of silence in honour of the departed.

The clash pitting Farul Constanta against Gloria Bistrita in the country’s Women’s Premier League kicked off with the silent tribute.

Harambee Starlets goalkeeper Lilian Awuor and defender Enez Mango featured for the Eastern European club.

In Uganda, Zambia-based Moses Shumah celebrated his goal in the CAF Champions League clash with a Kenyan flag in honour of the former Prime Minister.

Shumah bagged a second-half equaliser as Power Dynamos have taken a step toward Champions League group stage qualification after securing a crucial 2-1 away victory over Ugandan champions Vipers SC in the first leg of the second preliminary round at St. Mary’s Stadium in Kitende.

Vipers broke the deadlock early in the second half through Yunus Sentamu, who pounced from close range in the 48th minute after benefiting from a goalmouth scramble in the Power Dynamos box.

The Zambian Super League champions responded swiftly just five minutes later.

Shumah latched onto a precise through ball, outpacing his marker before firing a sublime finish into the top corner past Denis Kiggundu, to restore parity.
