Football Kenya Federation (FKF) boss Nick Mwendwa has confirmed that the federation has moved to engage Supersport with a view of bringing the sponsor back to Kenya’s top flight football.

The South African base broadcaster pulled the plug on Friday following realisation that the Kenyan Premier League misrepresented themselves during the contract negotiations.

Mwendwa said this immediately after a meeting between FKF hierachy and a section of club chairmen earlier today,having met KPL leadership in a joint executive commitee yesterday.

“From the two meetings we have resolved that it is in our interest and that of Kenyan football to have SuperSport back on air,” said FKF President Nick Mwendwa.

“As such the federation has moved with speed to engage SuperSport in a bid to remedy the situation and have the company rescind its decision to terminate its contract with the KPL.

The football boss also moved to clear the air indicating that Kenya Premier League Limited are delegated by the football governing body to run the top tier league for the next three years.

“We have further made it clear to SuperSport that despite being the institution duly recognized to oversee all footballing activities in the country, we have not only delegated the mandate to commercially 0rganise the top tier League to the KPL limited until the year 2020 but are also willing to provide any warrants that might be required to demonstrate the same.”
