He returned to the club in November 2024 as a second assistant coach and as the physical trainer under Francis Baraza, the then-head coach. However, when Baraza exited the club, Nyabinge was promoted to the assistant coach under the new coach, Patrick Odhiambo, with Paul Okatwa taking up the second assistant coach position.
Nyabinge announced his exit from the former Mozzart Bet Cup winners through a social media post stating, “As I conclude my time with Kakamega Homeboyz FC, I am grateful for the journey, the growth, and the teamwork shared. It is been a rewarding chapter, and I now look forward to new opportunities ahead,” read his post.
In the exit post, Nyabinge did not state the reason for his departure from the Kakamega based side, but reports indicate there has been growing disquiet within the Homeboyz technical bench, which reportedly peaked, leading to an exchange of words among the staff after a 2-0 loss to Nairobi United on October 11.
