Agreement was made in 2005 Nairobi did agree to constitutional changes July 22, 2007 Cricinfo can reveal that contrary to claims being made by the executive of the Nairobi Provincial Cricket Association, there was an agreement more than two years ago for it to make constitutional changes agreed to by the Kenyan Cricket Association in 2005. The NPCA has claimed that it has no obligation to change its constitution as requested by Cricket Kenya and that has led to delays in CK elections and a potential stand-off between the national and provincial boards. Cricnfo has seen emails in April 2005 between Salim Dhanji, the chairman of the NPCA, and Sharad Ghai, the then chairman of the KCA, in which Dhanji agreed to Ghai's demand that the NPCA change its constitution. And a memorandum of agreement in which the NPCA was committed to changing its constitution to that adopted by the KCA was signed by Ghai, Isaac Kalua, as chairman of the government-backed interim board, and Peter Chingoka, as chairman of the Africa Cricket association in April 2005. The NPCA argues that Ghai had no authority to make such a demand as he was about to relinquish office - he was removed from office in May 2005. But at the time the documents were signed he was officially the chairman of the national board. The main area of contention is that executive members of the NPCA are not elected from delegates put forward by the clubs, which is not the case in any other province. Critics of the NPCA executive have demanded to know why no annual meetings have been held since 2005 and why no accounts have been submitted to the members. One source within a prominent club told Cricinfo: "If the executive claims to represent the Nairobi clubs, then why are they so frightened of facing us?" © Cricinfo
