Former Football Kenya Federation (FKF) National Executive Committee (NEC) member Collins Kalee has broken his silence following his removal from office during the federation’s Special General Meeting (SGM) held in Meru on Saturday, November 7, 2026.
Kalee, who represented the Nyanza region in the NEC, appeared to acknowledge the outcome while maintaining that the battle was far from over.
In a message shared after the vote, Kalee likened the development to a football match, suggesting that although they had suffered an initial setback, there was still an opportunity to fight back.
“We have lost the first half of the match but we’re all safe for now,” Kalee stated.
He also expressed gratitude to branch and club representatives who stood by them throughout the process, thanking them for their support despite the outcome.
“Thanks so much to those who stood by us from the branches and clubs, we will forever remain grateful,” he added.
Kalee concluded his message with a rallying call, insisting that their passion for football administration would remain alive despite their removal.
“The passion must continue,” he said.
His remarks came hours after the FKF General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to remove seven NEC members over alleged serious and repeated violations of the FKF Constitution and applicable FIFA regulations.
The motion was reportedly supported by 65 delegates, with only two voting against the removal in the reported vote.
