Naiirobi City Stars head coach Nicholas Muyoti has cut a delighted figure following the recent action by newly appointed Sports Cabinet Secretary Ababu Namwamba to reinstate the ousted Football Kenya Federation officials.The former Kakamega Homeboyz boss says the move has given all stakeholders in the football industry a renewed hope that the sport will be in good hands going into the future.Namwamba reinstates ousted FKF officials as Mwendwa steps asideWith Kenya having been indefinitely suspended by world football governing FIFA for government interference when former Cabinet Secretary Ambassador Amina Mohammed disbanded the Nick Mwendwa led federation in November 2021, Namwamba only took seven days to kickstart the complying process with FIFA’s directive of reinstating the FKF officials in a bid to have the suspension lifted.Before that, Amina had not done as ordered by FIFA for almost a year leaving the state of the game in confusion and despair for the major players of the sport, a feeling that Muyoti reckons is slowly changing after the actions of the former Budalangi Member of Parliament who ascended to the docket.##NAJAVA_MECA_6798262##”It is very encouraging and very positive to see the stakeholders coming together(Government and FKF). We have suffered for a long time and this is because of the problems that have been there. I am happy that the CS has taken the bull by the horn and is addressing the issue that needs to be addressed. It just gives us the hopes as sports people that going forward, things are going to be good,” the former Kenyan international told Mozzart Sport.Happy new week from us😇https://t.co/DGySInzk2P#SimbaWaNairobi pic.twitter.com/FzWrT6h94s— Official Nairobi City Stars Fc (@NrbCityStars) November 7, 2022 Additionally, Muyoti stated that the developments have caused a significant change of energy to various teams in the league including Nairobi City Stars as now there is excitement and purpose from the government which trickles down positively to them.”The latest developments change the whole perspective as opposed to having trained for a long time with nothing seemingly forthcoming then. Now, we have a lot of hope and we are training with purpose, precision and expectation that is needed which brings a new perspective as we move forward,” he said.Despite the country having not received the greenlight yet as to when the suspension will be lifted, Muyoti urged the organizers to ensure the new 2022/2023 season does not start beyond November in a bid to save much of the time which has already been wasted.Gor Mahia head coach Johnathan McKinstry has shared a plan that will help solve the anticipated fixture congestion.https://t.co/s36k0sH8Jx— Mozzart Sport Kenya (@MozzartSportKe) November 9, 2022 “I do not think the league should start later than this month because we are very much behind. We would like it to be as soon as possible because we are very much behind the FIFA schedule and matches will be coming in thick and fast so the sooner we start the better,” he concluded.
