In the wake of the ongoing hullabaloo sorrounding the Football Kenya Federation inspection report, fictitious withdrawals by one Peter Kipchirchir totaling slightly over Ksh 29.5M were among the highlights of the provisional probe report. But, from which accounts were these withdrawals happening?The report outlined the five authorized signatories including the Finance Officer Christine Ojode, CEO Barry Otieno, Chris Amimo, a board member, vice president Doris Petra, and the embattled Nick Mwendwa. FIFA calls for swift mediation into the FKF-GoK impasseDespite missing on the list of unauthorized signatories, Kipchirchir still managed to access and make withdrawals from five bank accounts related to FKF, including an account that the investigators indicated was not disclosed to them.In a span of three months, between March 02, 2021, and May 31, 2021, Kipchirchir managed to withdraw Ksh 29,502,709 according to the report, including one-time withdrawals way above the authorized withdrawal limits outlined by the Central Bank of kenya.Yaani FKF ilikulwa NYS style! One Peter Kipchirchir alikuwa anaenda kuwithdraw like his personal account! Sometimes beyond the 1M limit set by CBK!— Lakti (@Arap_solit) November 15, 2021 On March 26, 2021, Kipchirchir managed to withdraw a total of 8,092,585 from three different accounts, one under the name FKF League and Competition, another one under the name Football Kenya Federation at the NCBA, and the third from Harambee Stars Management Fund account.The transactions happened at a time when Kenya was playing the last two Africa Cup of Nations Qualifications Group G matches against Egypt and Togo but questions remain why and how an unauthorized person was given the go-ahead to transact on behalf of the Federation.We give you a breakdown of how those transactions happened, by account, amount, and by date.
