EXCLUSIVE

Former Harambee Starlets defender Terry Ouko has been appointed by FIFA as the Sustainability and Human Rights Venue Manager at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta for the upcoming FIFA World Cup.

In this role, Ouko will oversee the matchday implementation of FIFA standards on safeguarding, human rights, anti-discrimination, inclusion, and environmental sustainability, ensuring every fixture at the venue is delivered in a safe, respectful, and responsible environment for fans, teams, officials and staff.

Ouko is widely regarded as one of Kenya’s most influential football administrators. She serves as the Vice President of the Kenya Footballers’ Welfare Association (KEFWA), sits on the FIFPRO Board, is the Vice Chairperson of the Futsal and Beach Soccer Committee, and is also involved in Women and Youth Development structures under the Africa Beach Soccer Union (ABSU) among other leadership and governance roles in football.

The Atlanta venue will be one of the tournament’s key hubs, hosting five group stage matches.

June 15: Spain vs Cape Verde

June 18: South Africa vs Czechia

June 21: Spain vs Saudi Arabia

June 24: Morocco vs Haiti

June 27: Uzbekistan vs DR Congo

Beyond the group stage, the stadium will also stage a Round of 32 match on July 1, a Round of 16 fixture on July 7, and a World Cup semifinal on July 15, cementing its place among the tournament’s most high-profile venues.

[Ali AwDoll @AwDoll]

The KDF’s swift delivery of the Wajir Stadium, ahead of Madaraka Day, raises a broader policy question: should we expand their role in public infrastructure like schools, hospitals and dams, where delays and inflated costs are the norm?

@AyubAbdikadir shows the transformation!

Yeah Wemby is good and everything, but he’s not the only ridiculously skilled person in this arena 🤯
