The federation president admits they have been facing serious challenges which sometimes delayed paying the match officials
Football Kenya Federation (FKF) president Nick Mwendwa has explained why the National Super League (NSL) clubs are paying the referees officiating in their games.
The federation recently took the decision to pass the responsibility of off-setting the referees payment to the clubs and Mwendwa has said the move was necessitated by the financial situation the FKF finds itself in.
“We have been facing critical financial challenges and even when we have a sponsor the money, we get from them is never enough which leads to late payment of referees,” Mwendwa told KTN TV.
