Jobita: Western Stima chairman insists no hope of resuming 2019/20 KPL season

The Powermen administrator has urged the league managers and Federation to solve their issues and work together

Western Stima chairman Laban Jobita insists there is no way the 2019/20 Kenyan Premier League (KPL) can be played to completion.

The annulling of the top tier by the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) on April 30 has been contested bitterly by the league managers, who feel the Federation overstepped their mandate by ending it and crowning Gor Mahia as champions.

The KPL initially hoped the government would relax the cessation and curfew measures put in place to curb the spread of Covid-19, but that has not been the case.
