MP & Silva Drops Funding Of Kenyan Football Federation's Attempt To Establish New League

MP & Silva will "reportedly not be stumping up more cash" for the Kenyan Football Federation's (FKF) attempt to set up a new Premier League in its own name, according to Mark Baber of INSIDE WORLD FOOTBALL. Following the failure of the "attempt by the FKF hierarchy" to destroy the Kenya Premier League in court, MP & Silva has written to the FKF saying it is "not willing to provide any more money to the FKF for 2015, according to copy of the letter obtained by website Goal." MP & Silva was quoted as having written, "Herewith, we provide you with our proposal we think could solve the issues for the current season ... Our basic plan would be to assume the minimum guarantee for this season has been fulfilled with our first two payments totalling $833,000 (Sh79million)." MP & Silva's frustration with the FKF "is evident" as the letter continues, "Any additional revenue exceeding the already paid Sh.79million will be split 60% to MP&Silva and 40% to FKF in order to recover all the costs we have sustained until now" (INSIDE WORLD FOOTBALL, 5/15).
