FKF has expelled vice president McDonald Mariga following a leadership shake-up. The decision comes after a chaotic meeting in Meru, where protests led to the use of tear gas.
Mariga, a senior figure in the Federation of Kenyan Football Associations (FKF), was facing charges during the meeting. The session was disrupted when RDU officers arrived, triggering a violent confrontation. Tear gas was deployed, causing the proceedings to be halted.
The FKF has condemned the incident, calling it a disruption to the rule of law. Mariga’s expulsion marks a significant shift in the organization’s leadership structure. The exact reasons for his removal were not immediately disclosed.
This is not the first time Mariga has been involved in controversy. Previous reports indicated tensions within the FKF over governance and disciplinary actions. The current situation highlights ongoing challenges in maintaining order and stability within the football federation.
The incident has raised concerns about the use of force during public meetings and the handling of internal disciplinary matters. As the FKF continues to navigate internal conflicts, the focus remains on restoring institutional integrity.
