FKF Elections: My opponents will celebrate if I go down with coronavirus - Mwendwa

The federation chief alleges those who eye his seat are placing roadblocks on his re-election bid

Football Kenya Federation (FKF) President Nick Mwendwa has claimed his opponents would celebrate if he is affected by the coronavirus.

Mwendwa says he was summoned by the detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) because his unnamed opponents are working hard to bar him from seeking re-election.

He was summoned this week to shed more light on how FKF used the Kes244 million given to them in order to facilitate Harambee Stars' Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) 2019 participation.
