The IOC says it is “extremely disappointed” with the outcome of a National Olympic Committee of Kenya meeting this week where its executives, led by former track great Kip Keino, voted against governance changes and a new constitution.
The IOC is now “putting on hold all payments of subsidies to the NOC of Kenya until a decision of the IOC executive board is taken at its meeting next week.”
Kenya was second behind the U.S. in the Rio Olympic track and field medal table, but its track federation and Olympic committee have been dogged by scandals.
