Football Kenya Federation (FKF) president Nick Mwendwa has said the
planned branch election on Saturday will go on scheduled, despite
calls by Registrar of Sports Rose Wasike to stop the polls until the
federation met all the requirements.
“The reason for the cancellation of the elections is non-registration
of county sports associations, who are supposed to elect the officials
of Football Kenya Federation,” stated Ms Wasike in the letter received
at the SDT on 18 November 2019.
It went on: “Please refer to section 47 of the Sports Act which states
that the Sports Registrar should register Sports organisations as a
sports club, county sports association or a national organisation.”
In her letter, Wasike had lamented how Mwendwa had ignored several
summons following her previous letters, to the federation, of 25
October and 1 November 2019.
