KPL: Only the governing council can declare fate of league

The Kenyan Premier League (KPL) has called for patience as they plan to meet and decide the fate of the 2019-20 season.

The Kenyan league, which was halted in March owing to the Covid-19 pandemic, is yet to get a clear solution with KPL still challenging the decision by Football Kenya Federation (FKF) to end the same and crown Gor Mahia champions.

KPL has even moved to court in a joint suit with Chemelil Sugar to challenge the decision by FKF and while they had promised to give a clear direction on the fate of the top-flight after the expiry of the 21-day curfew on May 16, the Kenyan government extended the same to June 6, complicating matters.
