On May 20, 2020, Nzoia Sugar chairman Evans Kadenge clarified that the team had not been disbanded, despite claims to the contrary.
According to Kadenge, the board of the parent Nzoia Sugar Company will soon meet to name a new coach to replace Collins 'Korea' Omondi, who parted ways with the team in early March.
Omondi's departure was due to a string of poor results, including a 3-2 loss to Kakamega Homeboyz at Bukhungu Stadium in his last match.
"We have not dissolved or disbanded the team. There are no training sessions and our players are staying safe at home as we also wait for the fate of the league to be decided by the relevant bodies," Kadenge said.
The team has been under the tutelage of assistant coach Sylvester Murukurwa and goalkeeper trainer Peter Mwaura in acting capacities since Omondi's exit.
Before Omondi, Nzoia was being coached by Godfrey Oduor, who is now KCB's assistant coach.
The team will have narrowly survived relegation if the current table standings or half-season table were used to end the season.
