FKF CEO Otieno denies authorship of letter under SDT investigation

The federation official distances himself from allegations he wrote the document to Fifa seeking protection

Football Kenya Federation (FKF) CEO Barry Otieno has dismissed claims he authored the letter in question at the Sports Disputes Tribunal (SDT).

Otieno has been accused of writing a letter to Fifa, dated March 18, asking for protection from the SDT, but the official maintains he was not aware of such a letter until it was provided to him by the SDT.

“I do not know the contents of the letter because the first time I saw it was during the SDT sessions and I did not bother to read it at all,” Otieno told Radio Jambo.
