I should have changed citizenship-Rueful Dennis Oliech confesses

• "I told them to give me a day to think about it but I never went back." -Dennis Oliech

Ex-Harambee Stars player, Dennis Oliech, says he regrets turning down an offer to change citizenship. Oliech was offered Ksh 800million to change citizenship but he never gave back an answer.

Speaking during an interview on Churchill, Oliech says given a second chance, he would change citizenship as the Kenyan government does not celebrate its heroes.

"I have regrets. Arab countries are worse, you can take their money but they can frustrate you later. I told them to give me a day to think about it but I never went back.

Given a chance I would take it because Kenya doesn't appreciate their heroes."

Oliech had in a past interview revealed he was offered Ksh 800m to change citizenship but he turned the offer down.

"I was told to change my citizenship and get paid Sh800m. They gave me an hour to make the decision. I was asked to call my family and tell them that I’m changing my nationality. Most of the people I called only looked at the money," he said.

Only one person, Adam Nyakundi of The Insyder, advised me, 'Des wewe ndio uko huko, you know the life there. Make the decision that best fits what you want.’ The money was a lot, they told me don’t worry about the money. We have a lot."
