Sholei and Shikanda suspended

On Monday, the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) handed indefinite suspensions on its Vice-chairperson Sammy Sholei and Nairobi branch chairperson Dr. Dan Shikanda.

The National Executive Committee (NEC) has confirmed the changes and its member Robert Asembo will now take the position of Sholei as the Vice-chairman while Michael Ouma will replace Dr. Shikanda.

This comes after the two officials openly conflicted with the other NEC members on numerous issues, some of which included corruption allegations.  

In Athletics: National Olympic Committee of Kenya (NOCK) has approved that 3,000 metres steeplechase world champion Kemboi is still in Kenyan squad to the London Games.

Kemboi’s participation in the Olympics was highly in doubt after he was charged with assaulting a woman in Eldoret. He is expected to appear before court in September.
