Hussein Mohammed Breaks Silence After Removal as FKF President

Hussein Mohammed has responded after the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) National Executive Committee (NEC) removed him from his position as President over alleged Ksh 42 million CHAN scandal.

In a statement, Mohammed said FKF Statutes outlines the procedure for convening a NEC meeting.

Hussein said the meeting held on April 24 which resolved to remove him as president was not convened in accordance with the FKF Constitution (2017).

He explained that the meeting was irregular and unconstitutional and the decisions made are null and void.

“The provisions of the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Statutes clearly outline the procedure for convening a National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting,” Hussein said.

“The purported meeting held on 24th April 2026 was not convened in accordance with the FKF Constitution (2017) and is therefore irregular, unlawful and unconstitutional. Consequently, any decisions arising from it are null and void.”
