Football Kenya Federation President Nick Mwendwa can afford to rest easy after the court threw out his 38 million fraud case.Kiambu Senior Principal Magistrate Wilson Rading quashed the charges on Wednesday, saying they are unfounded and unconstitutional.##NAJAVA_MECA_7137316##The latest development may as well mean that Mwendwa is at liberty to resume his duties at Kandanda House.Mwendwa stepped down as FKF boss in November 2021 and consequently, transferred his functions to his deputy, Doris Petra.The decision to transfer the duties to Petra back then, came hardly hours after Mwendwa had been charged in court with four counts of fraud and released on ten million shillings bail.Firat pleads for patience as Harambee Stars return to actionThe rain began beating the federation boss late in 2021 when the former Cabinet Secretary for Sports Amina Mohamed ordered the Sports Registrar to conduct an inspection at Kandanda House.The report, recommended the removal of the FKF officials from office to pave way for further investigation and the formation of a caretaker committee to plug in the gaps.The caretaker committee took over the running of the game for six months before paving the way for transition committee that oversee the federation’s day to day activities between May to October.It is understood that the report unearthed the misappropriation of funds at the federation and led to the arrest and subsequent charging of Mwendwa.
