On his part, FKF lawyer Tom Ojienda explained that Mwendwa's announcement was guided by the law book, and arrived at after a force majure (unforeseen circumstances preventing someone from fulfilling a contract).
Another lawyer, Ochutsi Munyendo, representing interested parties in this case stated that the Confederation of African (Caf) wrote to FKF requesting for an explanation on the status of football in the country.
The Kenyan Premier League (KPL) says it lost Sh100 million in revenue when Football Kenya Federation (FKF) prematurely ended the 2019/2020 league season in March.
KPL lawyer Amos Otieno made this claim in his submission to the Sports Disputes Tribunal (SDT) on Monday in a case in which KPL has accused FKF president Nick Mwendwa of illegally ending the league and declaring Gor Mahia champions.
