FKF President Hussein Mohammed Makes Game-Changing Request to Government on Match-fixing Solution
Hussein Mohammed has made a game-changing request to the government which could help reduce the alarming cases of match fixing.
Despite the reprieve, the club has now been advised to tread carefully since every move made by Matasi will attract public attention leading to further scrutiny.
“This is a complex situation for the player, the club, and the federation. If he returns to action, every move he makes on the pitch will be scrutinized. Even a genuine error could be misinterpreted as deliberate,” sports lawyer Ken Ochieng told Mozzart Sport.
Ochieng, who doubles up as Zoo FC chairman, expressed concern over the handling of such sensitive cases, maintaining that the federation lacks the resources to properly investigate match manipulation cases.
