World Football governing body FIFA has ordered the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) to proceed with its Annual General Meeting in preparation for the upcoming elections slated for later this year.

The highly anticipated Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Annual General Meeting scheduled for Saturday 16th March in Nairobi, was called off after a court order obtained by journalist Milton Nyakundi.

According to reports FIFA officials were in the country to attend the AGM, and were not at all happy with the court’s decision to stop the meeting.

Nyakundi had moved to court to oppose the AGM over the legality of the federation’s top officials convening the event.

The delegates had raised an alarm over Non-members seeking to disrupt the event.

The postponement of the federation’s AGM occurred following a week of disputes between them and Murang’a Seal FC regarding the club’s representation in the meeting.

The FKF Premier League side nominated Hussein Mohammed, allegedly aspiring for FKF’s top position.

However, FKF rejected his nomination, citing that he wasn’t a registered member of the Murang’a-based outfit. Subsequently, the club obtained a court order preventing FKF from interfering with their choice of representative.

Additionally, a majority of delegates held a press conference, declaring their refusal to accommodate ‘outsiders’ at the AGM, referring to Hussein’s intended presence.

The primary focus of the AGM is to establish a roadmap for the upcoming elections later in the year.

Nick Mwendwa aims for a third term as the head, despite objections from critics, competitors, and the Sports registrar, citing his ineligibility according to the Sports Act.

FIFA has now cautioned the country’s regular courts against involvement in football affairs, further hinting at potential sanctions, including a ban on FKF.
