Football Kenya Federation have indefinitely suspended all leagues and competitions across the country. The surprise move, which caught many stakeholders unawares, comes just hours after President Uhuru Kenyatta announced fresh Covid-19 containment measures to arrest the runaway spike in infections. The statement read in part: "Football Kenya Federation has with immediate effect suspended all FKF leagues and competitions which include but are not limited to the FKF-PL, National Super League, FKF Division One, FKF Division Two, all FKF women leagues, all FKF branch, and grassroots tournaments, until further notice. Meanwhile, FKF President Nick Mwendwa confirmed on Friday that the men's national football team would still travel to Togo on Saturday as scheduled despite the ban. President Uhuru has announced that all international travels will continue but asked travelers to comply with the guidelines on Foreign and international travel.
