Salim Dhanji clarifies position

NPCA agreed to new constitution in 2006

Cricinfo staff

March 28, 2008

Salim Dhanji, who was chairman of the Nairobi Provincial Cricket Association until January 2007, has contacted Cricinfo to confirm that rather than being absent from Kenya, he resigned on leaving for a two-year sabbatical in Australia.

He also clarified the position regarding the ongoing review of the NPCA's constitution. While NPCA officials have maintained to Cricinfo that there was no obligation on them to amend it to bring it into line with Cricket Kenya's requirements, Dhanji said that was not the case.

"I should also point out that as one of the persons that drew up the CK constitution, it was not only part of our mandate but our wish that all provincial bodies should and would amend their existing constitutions in order to bring them in line with the CK constitution," he said. "To this end, during my tenure as the NPCA chairman, I set up a subcommittee to deal with this specific issue. If my memory serves me correctly, one John Moyi headed this subcommittee.

"At the time of my resignation I was informed that the existing constitution had been amended and would be discussed at a meeting early in the New Year (2007)."

Last year Moyi told Cricinfo, in response to suggestions that Dhanji had entered into such an agreement, that he was unable to answer and if he had done so it was "without our agreement".

The delays in obtaining the Nairobi clubs' approval to constitutional changes has delayed elections, both for the NPCA and CK, for more than nine months and continues to rumble on.
