The Kenya Sports Ethics Tribunal, established under the 2024 Sports Act, delivered its first binding ruling on November 18, 2025—ordering a national federation president to repay KSh 18.7 million misused funds and banning him for 10 years. The case, brought by a whistleblower athlete, set precedent for financial transparency. Ethics isn’t optional—it’s enforceable, said Tribunal Chair Justice (Rtd) Martha Koome. The Tribunal now handles 14 active cases, including gender discrimination and doping cover-ups. All federations must submit audited accounts biannually. FIFA praised Kenya’s courageous institutional reform.
