Sofapaka president Elly Kalekwa has alleged of a conspiracy by unnamed officials of Football Kenya Federation (FKF) to have the 2009 league champions demoted from the SportPesa Premier League, ostensibly for failing to fulfill the club licensing requirements. He added: “I started this team in 2003 without any sponsor and there is no time I have failed to run it professionally. “We had like 10 percent chances of surviving the league last season and we did it miraculously. I have also produced the team’s audited accounts. I have a licensed auditor who has records of the team’s audited accounts since we joined the league in 2009, so it’s very unfortunate for someone to say that our audited accounts are suspect,” Kalekwa said.
