The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has confirmed that officers from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) visited its offices as part of investigations into the alleged Ksh42 million African Nations Championship (CHAN) insurance scandal.
In a statement on Tuesday, April 28, FKF confirmed the visit by anti-graft officers and said it had engaged with them during the operation.
“Football Kenya Federation (FKF) confirms that officers from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) today visited the federation’s offices as part of ongoing inquiries into the alleged CHAN insurance matter.
“FKF duly engaged with the officers and reiterated its commitment to fully support the process.
The federation remains firmly committed to transparency, accountability, and cooperation with all relevant investigative and oversight bodies,” the statement read.

“We welcome the involvement of the EACC and reaffirm our full cooperation with the process. As a federation, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity and transparency,” he said.

According to claims published by a local newspaper, the insurance contract was allegedly awarded to an unlicensed firm.
The report alleged that bank records, correspondence from the insurance regulator and procurement documents showed Riskwell Insurance Brokers was registered only weeks before the tournament.
It also claimed that on August 4, 2025, the opening day of CHAN, funds were transferred from federation accounts to the firm.
In his first public response, Mohammed said the allegations were part of a coordinated attempt to undermine reforms within the federation.
“Once I started the process of cleaning the house, it was inevitable that corruption would fight back. Through such a malicious campaign, a lifetime of sacrifice, dedication and investment to help develop our social fabric through sports can go up in smoke, just like that. Reputation ruined forever. I shall not allow it,” he said.
