Nick Mwendwa has explained the decision taken by the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) to end the 2019/20 Kenyan Premier League (KPL) season and crown Gor Mahia as the champions.
In a decision which has left the football fraternity in the country divided, Mwendwa confirmed on Thursday the top-flight will not resume for the remaining nine rounds of matches and declared that Gor Mahia, who were leading the 17-team table on 54 points, will represent the country in the Caf Champions League next season.
Further, Mwendwa confirmed the promotion of Nairobi City Stars to the top tier as they are topping the National Super League (NSL) alongside second-placed Bidco United, while the third-placed team will face off with a team from the top-flight to decide the other team to be promoted.
