“In an effort to protect the integrity of the league … the federation has immediately suspended these individuals pending an investigation into the matter by FIFA’s integrity department and FKF.”

The organisation advised all FKF members to “avoid any sports-related contacts” with players and coaches suspended during the suspension.

In February 2020, FIFA banned four Kenyan players – one for life – for “an international conspiracy” to rehabilitate league matches.

Five Kenyan judges were later suspended over the same scandal.

Kenya returned to international football in November after being suspended by FIFA in February 2022 for alleged embezzlement and appointing an interim committee.

In 2004, FIFA suspended Kenya for three months for government interference, but the situation changed after the country agreed to enact new laws.
