Latest developments in local football are frightening. When I wrote here last week that the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) was the most likely to lose in its battle with Football Kenya Federation (FKF), I didn’t imagine the magnitude of their loss.
Essentially, I didn’t think KPL would lose this much. That escalated real fast.
As the rest of the continent was busy this week in some hotel in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, doing draws for the Africa Cup of Nations 2015, we were being told of proposed drastic changes in our national league, key among them the national federation getting actively involved in all financial dealings of the KPL.
