Former Harambee Stars coach Musa Otieno has accused former Football Kenya Federation (FKF) president Sam Nyamweya of failing to pay him his salary for three years.
According to Otieno, who captained the men's national football team during his playing days, Nyamweya did not pay him his salary from the time he worked for the national team.
However, Nyamweya has shifted the blame to the federation, stating that it was the federation's responsibility to pay Otieno, not his own.
‘I mentored the young man (Otieno). But you cannot say Nyamweya did not pay me my salary. It is the federation that did not pay him. We must differentiate the federation and Nyamweya,' Nyamweya told the show host Carol Radull.
He also pointed out that former Harambee Stars coach Adel Amrouche has not been paid Sh 100 million, implying that the federation's financial constraints were the reason for the delay in payment.
It is worth noting that Nyamweya has announced his intention to contest for the FKF presidency in the forthcoming elections.
