Cheche names final Junior Starlets squad to face Burundi in FIFA U17 World Cup qualifier
Kenya's U17 women's team, coached by Mildred Cheche, is set to face Burundi in the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers.
Oriku has accused current FKF officials of contemptuously calling for the federation's AGM despite a standing High Court order from Kiambu that forbids such action.
According to a report by NTV "The three judges returned the case to Lady Justice Olga Sewe who, in April this year, suspended the holding of FKF’s AGM."
Originally scheduled for March 16 at the Kenya Institute of Special Education, the AGM's agenda was to include representatives from the 18 FKF Premier League clubs, 10 from the 18 National Super League clubs, and additional delegates from the 47 counties and National Division One teams, totaling 94 delegates.
