NAIROBI: Nyamweya wins round one in FKF dispute

Former FKF President Sam Nyamweya has won round one of a Kenya Premier League dispute after the High Court dismissed a preliminary objection by Nick Mwendwa and Robert Muthomi to have a case filed by Nyamweya thrown out without full hearing.

Judge John Mativo ruled that the objection by Mwendwa seeking to have the petition struck out lacked merit adding that it was not based on a pure point of law to warrant its dismissal.

Nyamweya had moved to court seeking orders to suspend club licensing rules and blocking FKF and their officials from discussing or interfering with ownership and management of KPL.
