The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has announced the resignation of its Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Barry Otieno, marking the end of his long-standing tenure.
After years of dedicated service to Kenyan football, Otieno has opted to step down from his role, leaving a legacy of significant contributions to the sport in the country. The FKF expressed its gratitude to him, wishing him success in his future endeavors.
During this transitional phase, Barry Otieno will continue working closely with the FKF team to ensure a smooth handover and maintain continuity in the federation’s operations. This collaboration will ensure that all ongoing projects and critical activities remain on track despite the leadership change.
In response to Otieno’s departure, the FKF has swiftly appointed Patrick Korir as the interim CEO. Korir, previously the CEO of Nairobi City Stars, is a well-known figure in Kenyan football, with a background in journalism and football coordination. His extensive experience and deep understanding of the sport make him well-suited for the role.
The FKF expressed confidence in Korir’s ability to seamlessly integrate into his new position and lead the federation with minimal disruption. His leadership is expected to ensure that the FKF’s mission of growing football at all levels continues unabated.
Patrick Korir’s appointment signals a new chapter for the FKF, with stakeholders optimistic that his expertise will guide the organization towards even greater success. All scheduled activities and programs will proceed as planned, further reinforcing the federation’s commitment to the development of Kenyan football.
