The East Africans have been drawn in Group B alongside Nigeria's Flying Eagles, Morocco, and Tunisia - all of whom have a rich history in the tournament.
Despite facing formidable opponents, Ochieng expressed confidence in his team's preparation.
"We have prepared well, and despite the draw, we don't fear our opponents," Ochieng told The Star. "Because even if we had maintained the other group, we would still face the likes of Morocco in the knockouts."
