Career
Otieno was appointed interim coach of the Kenya national football team[1] until he was relieved by Francis Kimanzi in November 2011.[2]
Otieno played for Gor Mahia,[3] and made appearances for the Kenya national football team, including two 1994 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches.
After retiring from playing football, Otieno became a manager. He led his former team Gor Mahia before being appointed Kenya national team manager in December 2010.[4]
After the end of the 2012 Kenyan Premier League, Otieno left Sony Sugar to become a politician. He ran for the post of Councillor of Eastlands, Nairobi during the 2013 general elections,[5] but took a break and was re-appointed at Sony Sugar, succeeding Sammy Omollo, who had replaced him in 2012.[6]
On 10 June 2019, Otieno was appointed manager of KCB in the Kenya Premier League.[7]
