Court lifts Nyamweya ban

 

High Court judge justice Chacha Mwita has declared Football Kenya Federation decision to ban former  Sam Nyamweya from football activities as illegal.

Justice Mwita declared the ten-year suspension by the FKF National Executive Committee held on March 21st, 2017 was unlawful. Nyamweya is now free to comment or take part in any football activites.

“The decision communicated to CAF, FIFA, and CECAFA is null and void as Nyamweya was not given an opportunity to defend himself as required by the law. The declaration by the constitutional court means that Nyamweya is free to comment on football matters both locally and internationally,” Chacha said in his ruling.

FKF suspended Nyamweya for pursuing a case against the current officials in a court of law in disregard of laid down procedures
