Nick Mwendwa and Barry Otieno yesterday braved tense moments before the Senate committee on Labour and Social Welfare. They laid bare their fears that Sports Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohamed was poised to disband the Football Kenya Federation (FKF).

The national football governing body is in the eye of a storm over how it spent Sh244 million on the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations finals. The Senate committee has also asked the federation to explain the allegations that a further Sh11 million was paid in refunds directly into FKF President Mwendwa’s account without requisite documentation and approvals.
