The president of FKF recently notified FIFA the Football world governing body that the government of Kenya had withdrawn all the graft charges it had leveled against him hence allowing him back on duty.
“Reference is made to my letter dated November 29, 2021, with regard to the interim transfer of my powers and responsibilities as FKF President to the FKF Vice President.
“In this regard, following the withdrawal of charges by the Directorate of Public Prosecution on July 8, 2022, I hereby wish to inform your good office that I have resumed my duties as the FKF president, with immediate effect, in accordance with Article 42 of the FKF constitution (2017),” Mwendwa updated FIFA.
One of the condition FIFA had given Kenya was to allow Nick back in office for it to lift the ban imposed on the country.
