The Ministry of Sports has officially cleared Football Kenya Federation to stage a friendly between Harambee Stars and Zambia on October 9, provided they adhere to Covid-19 regulations.
The friendly was hanging in the balance since the government had not yet given clearance for Kenya to host the Chipolopolo since contact sports, including football, are still suspended in the country owing to the coronavirus pandemic.
After a battle involving FKF and government officials, the federation’s President Nick Mwendwa has now confirmed to Goal they have been given the all-clear to stage the friendly as long as they follow the guidelines set up by the Ministry of Health in regards to Covid-19.
