The Confederation of Africa Football (Caf) is fast running out of patience and has now asked Football Kenya Federation to show proof of government support as well as “concrete progress on stadiums and other infrastructural developments” by next Friday. FKF have openly expressed their dissatisfaction with the speed with which the government is moving, saying that the fear of losing the hosting rights is now real. Muthomi, however, remains positive that Kenya can meet all the necessary requirements before the February 3 Caf deadline. But even the Kasarani venue, which houses Kenya’s biggest stadium, still, needs tremendous improvement on its playing surface. It now remains to be seen whether the government will fast track its commitment before the Caf deadline, or watch as the country loses the CHAN hosting rights.
