The Kenya Rugby Union has said there will be no Special General Meeting today due to "fatally defective" petitions by clubs even as a member of the board urged his colleagues to go ahead with it and give clubs a hearing.

Eddie Omondi, KRU secretary general, said only one club, Stormers RFC, met the threshold for a valid petition, while the rest (19) had defective petitions due to missing signatures and others withdrew support for the SGM. Egerton University, Moi University, Kisumu RFC and Kakamega RFC, he said, had withdrawn their support for the SGM. He attached their letters withdrawing support for the SGM.
