Kenya has been warned against further delaying preparations for the Africa Nations Championships (CHAN), barely two months to the start of the continental spectacle.

As the government fights against time to ensure all designated facilities are ready for the second most prestigious tournament in Africa after the Africa Cup of Nations, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) continues to send in officials to inspect progress and deliver the report.

During the latest assessment, CAF Secretary General Veron Mosengo sounded he alarm to Sports Cabinet Secretary Salim Mvurya, cautioning that failure for Kenya to execute CHAN effectively would put the country and Africa in general at risk.

According to Mosengo, a sub-standard tournament would effectively jeopardise stakeholders' and investors' confidence in Kenya and Africa in hosting continental events.
