Menengai Oilers are through to the 2024-2025 Kenya Cup final.

Oilers stunned favorites KCB 31-8 in the semifinals played on Saturday at KCB Sports Club to set up a Rai Derby against rivals Kabras Sugar in the Kenya Cup final set for April 12.

Defending champions Kabras Sugar had booked a 10th consecutive final berth after thrashing Nondescripts 45-6 at Kakamega Showgrounds in Kakamega in the early kickoff encounter.

Oilers and Kabras will now meet twice, first in the Kenya Cup final and then the following week in the Enterprise Cup final.

In Nairobi, Oilers were first to draw the first blood when Nelson Makokha scored off a maul to take a 7-0 lead after Timothy Omela’s conversion.
