Football Administrator Tom Alila Rubbishes Formation of FKF Committee, Asks CS Amina to Outlaw Group

Former Football Kenya Federation (FKF) National Executive Committee (NEC) member Tom Alila has dismissed the recent formation a 13-member committee to take over from the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Transition Committee when their term in office ends Thursday next week.

Alila said these are individuals who did not have the interests of Kenyan football at heart were positioning themselves to take over the leadership through the backdoor and should not be allowed.

“This is not the time to think about posts but to seek for means of how Kenya can be re-admitted by the world governing body Fifa instead pushing for selfish agendas meant to benefit individuals instead of Kenyan soccer,” he said.

He said the priority should be given to the FKF secretariat resuming their duties in the running of the federation’s day to day operations and can manage the federation by filling the vacuum that will be left by the FKF Transition Committee when it leaves office.

Alila who once served as the FKF Nyanza NEC representative and served the Finance Committee chairman during the the tnure of Sam Nyamweya's led regime asked the Sports Cabinet Secretary Dr Amina Mohammed to engage the world governing body in returning football back to normalcy and bar any individuals from trying to impose themselves in football management.

“Madam Waziri please talk to Fifa and find ways and means of normalizing football in the country and don’t allow officials to take advantage of the vacumm to plunge the country into a deeper crisis. Kenyan soccer is suffering, we have been locked out of the international scene, there’s a big problem which needs to be solved and yet officials are jostling for power instead of putting Kenya first. Be Aware Madam CS,” said Alila
