Sports CS Amb. Amina Mohamed has stuck a high boot on Football Kenya Federation over Sh109, 919, 863 that the Court of Arbitration for Sport awarded former Harambee Stars coach Adel Amrouche.<\/p>\n

World football governing body, Fifa, gave FKF until yesterday to pay up or face the music, which could include throwing Kenya out of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.<\/p>\n

FKF president Nick Mwendwa had told Standard Sports last Thursday they had approached the Sports Ministry to help foot the bill \u2014 the basis on which Fifa extended the deadline until yesterday.<\/p>\n

However, in a stunning counter-attack yesterday, Amb. Amina said: \u201cNo government in its right senses would fork out Sh109million to pay an individual for the mistakes of an irresponsible federation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t understand it,\u201d Amb. Amina fumed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is baffling to expect the government to pay for the irresponsible behaviour of a federation seeking to abdicate its role,\u201d she said when asked whether the State had intervened by close of business yesterday to avoid an impending, but unspecified Fifa action.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has nothing to do with government. Why is FKF not negotiating with Fifa or the coach (Adel Amrouche) on a payment plan?<\/p>\n

\u201cThey can pay it using their resources, such as from their sponsors or gate collections. It is unfair to expect the government to use tax-payers\u2019 money for something FKF brought upon itself.<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cWhy for instance did they let go of the coach without consulting the government. And if after losing the case, why did they appeal knowing the consequences of such action given the gravity of the case?\u201d Amb. Amina posed.<\/p>\n

On August 29, 2017, Fifa Players Status Committee awarded Adel Sh65million plus interest, but FKF \u2014 unhappy with the ruling \u2014 appealed at the Court of Arbitration for Sport on February 14, 2018.<\/p>\n

However, on September 19 last year, CAS upheld Adel\u2019s case and awarded him 86.25m in compensation, salaries owed plus interest. CAS dismissed the appeal by FKF in its entirety besides also trashing any further claims or requests for relief.<\/p>\n

And in a letter dated February 28 this year, Fifa notified FKF that it had opened disciplinary proceedings for \u201cfailure to respect a decision passed by a body, a committee or an instance of Fifa or a CAS decision\u201d \u2013 itself a serious breach of Fifa\u2019s Statutes.<\/p>\n

It added: \u201cShould the aforementioned party, FKF, fail to submit its position within the stipulated deadline, the member of the Fifa Disciplinary Committee will decide on the case using the file in its possession.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fifa once expelled Zimbabwe from the 2018 World Cup qualifiers on March 12, 2015, for a similar offence after the FA failed to pay Brazilian coach Jose Claudinei Georgini \u2018Valinhos\u2019 his dues.<\/p>\n

FKF President Nick Mwendwa was not immediately available, yesterday, to comment on CS Amina\u2019s latest tough stance.<\/p>\n

On March 5, however, Mwendwa told Standard Sports he could not fathom Harambee Stars missing out on Qatar 2022 qualifiers, which they have been drawn in Group E together with Uganda, Rwanda, and Mali.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust like we\u2019ve said before, without the government paying there is nowhere we can get that money. I believe the government will do it. I can\u2019t fathom that Kenya will be out of Qatar,\u201d Mwendwa said on March 5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
