Avoid sideshows ahead of FKF polls

Football Kenya Federation (FKF) recently appointed an electoral board to oversee elections which are supposed to be held by the end of next month after the polls aborted last year due to, among other things, the need for a new electoral board.

While we commend FKF for the process which was aimed to deliver credible elections, recent sideshows surrounding the elections are not good for Kenyan football and it is threatening to delay the process once again and we might face punishment from the world governing body FIFA. Of late, there have been petitions at the Sports Disputes Tribunal (SDT) challenging the electoral process which has created more uncertainty.
