“The FKF Constitution serves as the bedrock of our organization, outlining clear guidelines and regulations for the conduct of meetings, including the AGM.
“It is abundantly clear that clubs possess the fundamental right to choose their representatives for such gatherings, a principle enshrined in our constitution.”
“The attempt to disallow Murang’a SEAL FC from sending Vice Chairman Hussein Mohammed as their representative flagrantly disregards this constitutional provision.
