Adagala accuses delegates of betrayal as bribery allegations emerge

Muhoroni Youth Chairman Moses Adagala has criticized delegates, who allegedly accepted financial inducements from former Football Kenya Federation (FKF) President Nick Mwendwa and Vice President Doris Petra, but failed to vote for their ticket in the just-concluded FKF elections.Adagala labeled the delegates, who allegedly took money from Team Blue and failed to return the favour in the ballot as conmen, who should have no place in football.The vocal supporter of Mwendwa during the campaign period expressed his disappointment at the betrayal, saying individuals entrusted to lead football used the outgoing team for personal gain.##NAJAVA_MECA_8564475##“It is deeply unpleasant when someone takes hard-earned money with no intention of fulfilling their promise,” Adagala said.“Such behavior is unbecoming of football administrators. These individuals are conmen, and their actions will catch up with them, if not now, then in the future.”His sentiments perhaps clear the air regarding the suspicion that most delegates trade the game for individual financial gains during elections.
