The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has issued a formal statement reaffirming its communication protocols and the role of its leadership.
In the statement dated 05 May 2026, the federation emphasized that, in accordance with its statutes, the President serves as the official spokesperson.
FKF stated that all official communication is exclusively issued through the Office of the General Secretary and disseminated via the federation’s recognized channels. This directive reinforces an internal structure designed to maintain message discipline and institutional accountability.
The federation urged both the media and the public to exercise due diligence when handling football-related information. It cautioned against publishing, distributing, or relying on unverified reports, noting that such actions risk undermining governance standards and public trust.
FKF further warned against the unauthorized use of federation letterhead or issuance of correspondence outside established procedures, describing such actions as breaches of governance that would be addressed under its statutes and applicable regulations.
FKF reiterated its commitment to transparent, accurate, and timely communication, signaling a continued effort to align its operations with best practices in sports administration.
Engagement with Parliament Highlights Strategic Priorities
The FKF leadership including President Hussein Mohammed and Acting General Secretary/CEO Dennis Gicheru, also met with the National Assembly Departmental Committee for Sports, Culture and Tourism. The meeting brought together members of the National Executive Committee and the federation secretariat.
Discussions focused on key issues shaping Kenyan football, notably preparations for AFCON 2027. According to the federation, all concerns raised by the Committee were comprehensively addressed, reflecting an ongoing engagement between FKF and government oversight bodies.
FKF used the platform to reaffirm its commitment to transparency, integrity, and good governance as it works to advance football at all levels.
The federation also acknowledged the Committee’s oversight role, noting that such collaboration is essential in strengthening the sport’s institutional framework.
As preparations for major continental events gather pace, such alignment may prove critical in shaping both public confidence and the long-term development of Kenyan football.
