Okoth will add rebounding prowess and perimeter threat to the Titans' roster as they bid to return to the finals this season.
KIU Titans have made their intentions of challenging City Oilers for the National Basketball League championship clear since the start of the season.
The Kansanga-based side won the UCU Open but were blown away by City Oilers in the opening game of the season despite unleashing some of their key signings.
Saidi Amisi, Innocent Ochera, Brian Opiyo and the returning pair of Peter Obleng and Collins Kasujja are some of the signings that the Titans brought in.
Congolese guard Joel Lukoji then joined the team in the course of the first round.

BASKETBALL Tonny Drileba triple-double sinks Namuwongo Blazers
Drileba shot three-for-10 from the field and sank three-of-four free throws as the champions cruised to a 20-point game.

FUBA rules limit teams to only four foreign players on a given matchday, yet KIU now have five.
Of Amisi, Lukoji, Balungu, Okoth and Isaiah Ater Mabeny, one player will have to sit out on a given matchday.
