Kenya’s x international star and current secretary general of KEFWA (Kenya Footballers Welfare Association) has called on sports administrators led by FKF president Nick Mwendwa to urgently save Kenya from a looming Fifa ban.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Below find his statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We continue to closely follow the stalemate emerging from the pending FKF elections. We recognize the challenges that come with football administration and at the same time acknowledge the role and efforts made by each and every office that has been in charge ever since FKF (previously the Football Association, Kenya Football Federation, and Football Kenya Limited) became a FIFA member. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We however continue to be increasingly concerned by the possible effects the current electoral stalemate could have on our members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A FIFA ban will most definitely kill the careers and livelihoods of a vast majority of Kenyan players, none of whom is proxy to and\/or privy to any of the parties vying for the top seat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sad reality is that it is the players, the greatest stakeholders, who stand to suffer the most from the current electoral quagmire. We call upon all the warring parties to put their political interests and differences aside and spare a minute for the Kenyan player and the country at large. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We urge them to work with FIFA and the Ministry of Sports with a view to finding a common solution and to create a healthy environment for professional football. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
