Football stakeholders led by Nyamweya, Aduda demand FKF to be investigated for alleged fraud

Kenya football stakeholders led by Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Presidential aspirants Sam Nyamweya and Jack Oguda have written to the Sports Cabinet Secretary Ambassador Amina Mohamed over the alleged lack of transparency in the current regime under incumbent Nick Mwendwa.

The stakeholders believe the Federation made double requisition of funds for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) despite Confederation of African Football (Caf) wiring those funds to their accounts.

"FKF received $260,000 from Caf for the preparation of the national football team Harambee Stars and a further $620,000 in prize money for finishing third in the group stages of the Afcon 2019," read the letter dated June 10 to the Sports CS and copied to Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti and obtained by Goal.
