Mwendwa has now claimed that the election was disrupted claiming that some members were denied

“I have no doubt that these elections were disrupted, from the beginning the process was flawed, some people had access to the voter register and used their influence to influence the vote. Some members were deliberately prevented from attending the election, while others were forced to vote. vote in a specific way. This is not democracy—this is stupidity.” he told SportsBoom.

The outgoing president has claimed that the results were known beforehand.

“I've been in this game long enough to know when something is wrong. You can't have an election where everyone knows the results before the voting. This was not a fair competition. This was about controlling the results, not giving the results. The football community is a choice true.”
