Kenyan football federation officials have rejected threats of a boycott by the National Council of Sports (NCS) over unresolved disputes. Federation president Hussein Mohammed stated that the body had attempted four times to hold meetings of the National Executive Committee (NEC), emphasizing that disagreements should be resolved through dialogue and established structures.
Mohammed clarified that the federation remains committed to resolving issues within the existing framework, rather than allowing the boycott to disrupt the league’s operations. The dispute centers on the scheduling and management of matches, with the federation accusing the NEC of failing to provide timely decisions.
This disagreement marks the latest in a series of tensions between the federation and the national sports authority. Previous conflicts have involved financial allocations and governance structures. The federation has called for a more transparent and efficient process, while the NEC has maintained that it is following due procedures.
The situation highlights ongoing challenges in the administration of sports in Kenya, with both sides claiming to act in the best interests of the sport. With no immediate resolution in sight, the standoff could affect the upcoming league season.
