This week, two major events happened on the Kenyan football scene with huge implications. First, suspended Football Kenya Federation president Nick Mwendwa was cleared of corruption charges involving Sh38 million and could be soon heading back to office.

Secondly, Harambee Stars played Iran under new coach Engin Firat and lost 2-1. The Turkish manager assured Kenyan fans that the team is on the right trajectory and that soon, the team will deliver the goods.
