Kenya Motor Sports Federation (KMSF) Management is now seeking a path of unity amidst recent leadership wrangles.

Speaking earlier today at the Parklands Sports Club in Nairobi flanked by 10 members, embattled KMSF Chairman Maina Muturi vowed to ensure that the Federation reached its promise to develop talent and make the sport sustainable to all competitors. This he pointed out was the only way to make the different genres in KMSF growing.

“For us, it is about committing to develop motorsports in the country and avoid the noise which is not healthy for anyone. We are here as 10 clubs represented from across our membership ad we just had a board meeting with among the agenda being events, sponsorships and audit as the new calendar nears,” Muturi told the Media on the sidelines.

KMSF has faced scrutiny with a faction allied to Jim Kahumbura allegedly had blacklisted Muturi and his supporters from the Federation offices in Sikh Union.

This issue has been roundly rejected by KMSF Limited with Muturi remaining adamant that he was in-charge.

“We have had a couple of challenges but we are more focused on making our sport bloom. It is unfortunate that some people want to drag us behind when all we want to do is to harness the future stars. Our priority is planning for next season with a program that should be all inclusive and not discriminating anyone,” he added.

Amongst some of the plans for the KMSF office is the forthcoming Easter World Rally Championships. According to Muturi, the Organizers and Promoters are already hard at work.

“This is an important event for Kenya. It might not be directly under us but alongside the Ministry of Sports and the Secretariat of the Safari Rally Championships and FIA, we would certainly want to see a solid project. In March next year during the Easter weekend, we will hopefully want to see a successful Safari Rally again. Plans are underway and we believe if we put our heads together, we will witness a good event.”

Muturi and his team also told Media that they wanted to build capacity using the regional events.

“We are looking at engaging with partners to drive forward East Africa Rallying events. This will obviously help with building capacity and invite technical support from experts,” he said.

Additionally, Muturi warned that they are in the process of making competition rules that are palatable and guide the sport scene for posterity.

“We will work with all and sundry including Government to ensure rallying gets to where it belongs. We want to essentially clean the house and work professionally. We want competitors and participants to feel like family so that this projects are at least owned 70% by them and as such play important roles. We want to see going forward KMSF being youth centered and even such make the sport more affordable and accessible and that means that cutting on costs and events so that it becomes more tenable and viable.”
