The fate of the 2019-20 Kenyan Premier League (KPL) will not be decided as planned as the Kenyan government moved to extend the curfew occasioned by the coronavirus for another 21 days.
President Uhuru Kenyatta confirmed the curfew will remain in force until June 6 on Saturday while addressing the nation, thus killing any hopes that the Kenyan top-flight could resume soon as earlier planned by the KPL.
While the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) moved to end the season and declare table-toppers Gor Mahia champions when the government announced the second curfew, the KPL insisted the league will likely resume after the curfew elapsed on Saturday, May 16.
