Club Career
Oliech started playing football for Dagoretti Santos in his earlier years, then Mathare United.
He turned professional in 2003 playing for Al-Arabi in Qatar until late 2005. In 2004 he was offered a chance to change his citizenship from Kenyan to Qatari. But he refused the offer.
In 2005, Oliech signed a four-year contract with the French Ligue 1 team FC Nantes and started playing for them at the start of 2006. However, FC Nantes were relegated in 2007 after finishing bottom of Ligue 1 and Oliech was signed on loan by Auxerre who were in need of goals after a bad start to their season. In January Auxerre signed him from Nantes. On September 25, 2011, Oliech scored his first ever hat-trick for Auxerre in a 4–1 win over Sochaux. The hat-trick was accomplished within the span of 16 minutes.
