Sports Tribunal cancels upcoming FKF elections

The Sports Tribunal have moved to cancel the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) national elections.

The exercise to elect new officials to run football in the country was slated for Saturday, December 7, at Kasarani Gymnasium.

However, the Tribunal chairman John Ohaga has cancelled the proceedings, saying the Electoral Board, which was to oversee the gathering, was not properly constituted.

“We have nullified the earlier elections held on November 23 for branches and cancelled the upcoming polls for the national elections,” Ohaga said during the ruling.

When reached for comment, FKF president Nick Mwendwa told Goal they will adhere to the move and will convene another election by April, next year, as stipulated by law.
