Uphold court decision on football poll

On March 17, the Sports Disputes Tribunal (SDT) pronounced itself on the Football Kenya Federation. The disputes tribunal had ruled the federation’s eligibility criteria on candidates and the voting clubs was unreasonable having flouted the Kenyan constitution.

The tribunal rendered the entire process null and void. And while the world football governing body Fifa rejected the tribunal’s suggestion that a normalisation committee be formed to correct the anomaly given the term of office the National Executive Committee had elapsed, it called for a stakeholders’ meeting together with the Ministry of Sports.
