Barry Otieno, a leading candidate for the Football Kenya Federation (FKF)
Presidency in the upcoming 2024 elections, held a consultative meeting with officials from
ten FKF Premier League clubs earlier today.
The meeting forms part of his ongoing campaign, where he is sharing his team’s vision for
the future of Kenyan football. His agenda, Beyond the Pitch, is centered on transforming
the football landscape by focusing on four key pillars:
▪ Better involvement of clubs in the professionalization and management of the FKF
leagues and Cup Competitions.
▪ Strengthening FKF’s governance structures by empowering FKF branches,
committees, and judicial bodies.
▪ Investing in capacity building for football administrators in key areas including
commercialization of football assets, communication and marketing, legal aspects,
and strategic planning.
▪ Creating clear pathways for our talented youth, both boys and girls to reach their full
potential.
During the meeting, Barry gathered feedback from the clubs to further refine his
messaging, ensuring that the needs of the stakeholders are at the heart of his campaign.
“Our team believes in the immense potential of Kenyan football. With your support, we can
transform this potential into reality. Together, we can build a Federation that not only wins
on the pitch but also excels in governance, development, and administration,” Barry stated.
As part of his broader engagement strategy, Barry has lined up additional consultative
meetings with clubs from the National Super League, Division One League, and Women’s
Premier and National Super League, as well as officials from the FKF county branches.
These discussions will continue to shape his roadmap as he continues to positions his
candidature as the best choice for the upcoming FKF elections.
