Sofapaka President Elly Kalekwa is still not understanding why Kenya are not taking part in the African Nations Championships currently going on in Cameroon.

Kenya under coach Sebastien Migne failed to make it to the competition after they were eliminated by neighbours Tanzania on penalties.

The two East African nations met in a two-legged fixture, the first leg ending 0-0 in Dar es Salaam with the return leg being decided on penalties after the teams drew 1-1 with Tanzania winning 4-1 to advance to the qualifying round when they beat Sudan to reach the final.

NAIROBI: Kenya has been fined 2.2 million shillings ($20,000) and two senior football officials suspended for breaching Covid rules in an African Cup of Nations qualifier against Comoros, a statement said Saturday.

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) said the Kenyan team refused to take coronavirus tests before the match in the Comoros capital Moroni in November and only did so when Comoros football officials insisted.

“The test results arrived just a few minutes before the kick off due to the long delay,” CAF said in a statement, adding that four players had tested positive. “Mr Barry Otieno, the general secretary of the Football Kenya Federation, and Mr Ronny Oyando, the Kenyan team manager, disputed the results .... snatched them ... and tore them apart,” it said.

“Four Kenyan players including the skipper Victor Wanyama had tested positive for the coronavirus, yet they took part in the game,” CAF said. Both Otieno and Oyando were each slapped with a six month ban from all football activities for their actions. - AFP/The News International
