FOOTBALL FKF receive delegates support in standoff with Hussein Mohammed ahead of Saturday's AGM
FKF delegates have backed decision to bar Hussein Mohamed from AGM for not being a registered official,.
With the court’s intervention, uncertainties loom over the fate of critical decisions and reforms intended to shape the future of the sport in the country.
The AGM is supposed to be attended by National Executive Committee members, 18 KPL clubs, 10 NSL clubs, three WPL clubs, two WPL clubs, 10 Division One clubs, and 48 branches and representatives of the players, referees and coaching associations.
In 2021, Nyakundi had declared his candidature for the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) presidency ahead of the upcoming elections.
Nyakundi lined up his seven–point football development agenda anchored towards developing grassroots football, youth, women, national, capacity building, players welfare and corporate governance.
The build up to the AGM has been overshadowed by the decision by FKF Premier League side Murang’a Seal, who have insisted that Extreme Sports CEO Hussein Mohammed will attend the AGM as their representative.
However, the Federation insists that Mohammed is not a registered official of the club, as per Club Licensing documents submitted at the start of the season.
The legitimacy of the top officials convening the event has now been put to question, which is set to add even more controversy to the event.
