How Harambee Stars fared in 2024: AFCON heartbreak, lack of home support & Engin Firat's abysmal record
Harambee Stars had a 2024 to forget under the stewardship of the now-departed Engin Firat. Will 2025 be a better year for the side?
The committee has been entrusted with the following key responsibilities:
Facilitating Operational Continuity: Ensuring essential functions and systems of FKF remain unaffected during the transition.
Preserving Institutional Integrity: Upholding transparency, credibility, and FKF’s commitment to its mandate.
Preparing Incoming Leadership: Equipping the new NEC with the tools and understanding needed to manage FKF’s affairs.
Capacity Building: Strengthening FKF’s administrative and technical capabilities for sustainable growth.
Forensic Audit: Conducting a comprehensive audit of FKF’s finances and human resources to bolster transparency.
FKF President Hussein Mohammed expressed confidence in the committee's ability to fulfill its mandate, describing the team as capable and well-equipped for the task.
Search for CEO continues
The committee will begin its work as the search for a new FKF CEO goes on.
The position has sparked differences among NEC members. The lucrative position, considered second in power only to the presidency, has become a contentious issue.
One faction, representing the majority, supports an internal appointment in line with a pre-election pact, while another faction advocates for an open and competitive recruitment process to attract the best candidate.
Among those reportedly vying for the CEO position is Collins Otieno Bob (popularly known as Bob Junior), currently serving as the Chief Officer of Blue Economy and Fisheries in Homabay County. Otieno is seen as the frontrunner due to his experience and reputation.
Another contender is Harold Ndege, a retired Kenyan footballer now employed by the Kenya Revenue Authority.
