But there is no joking when Kenneth speaks of the gargantuan task facing Kenya ahead of the 2027 Afcon which the country is co-hosting with neighbours Uganda and Tanzania. His tenure as the top mandarin at the Kenya Football Federation saw him prove that he is not all talk and no hat. Even earlier on, Kenneth’s love for the game of football saw him take the sport seriously while a student at Starehe Boys Centre. Photo credit: File | PCSThe experience earned on the pitch as a player and later in the boardroom would be the sole propulsion fuel for Kenneth’s interest in leading the Kenya Football Federation.

Local traders have taken the opportunity presented by the stronger local currency to stockpile on imports, there being no assurances on the sustainability of the recent rally. In addition, we believe that local dollar holders continue to divest to mitigate potential losses in anticipation of further strengthening,” noted Standard Investment Bank Senior Research Associate Stellar Swakei.
