The stakes in the controversial Football Kenya Federation elections rose a notch higher on Tuesday as former Law Society of Kenya president, Tom Ojienda, surprised many when he appeared for FKF at the Sports Disputes Tribunal.

Disgruntled stakeholders have moved to the Sports Tribunal seeking to have FKF compelled to fully comply with its March 17 ruling, which impeached Article 4 of the FKF Elections Code, before proceeding with elections planned for September 17 and October 17.
