History

Manager George Owoko led Nairobi Stima to an undefeated first half of the season in 2018–19, but was suspended by management in April 2019 and left the club that June. Assistant coach Evans Mafuta took over as manager.[2]

Stima finished 3rd in 2019 and qualified for the promotion/relegation playoff, but lost to top flight Posta Rangers 3–2 on aggregate and remained in the second division.[3] Nairobi Stima only lost two league matches that year, but missed out on promotion by goal difference to Kisumu All Stars.[4]

gollark: ... unless you want nuclear cars which I have to say would be very cool.
gollark: I mean, yes, nuclear good, but it would only work for the "electricity and heat production" and "other energy" segments.
gollark: What? No, 35% or so can, at most.
gollark: I'm not sure what you would do about it without scaling down beef production a lot, which would make people unhappy, since I don't really know much about how farming works at large scales.
gollark: I have heard that it's quite polluting, yes.
