According to a statement issued on Wednesday by the FKF boss, the meeting will have four agendas.
It is, however, the third one that appears to seal Ndege's fate.
”Recommendation and approval by the President on the position of Secretary General in accordance with the provisions of article 42(4) as read together with article 63(5), of the FKF constitution 2017,” read part of the statement.
It is not, however, clear whether FKF have advertised the position or will pick a successor from within.
Sources indicate that at least four individuals are eyeing the job.
The former Kenyan international and Tusker FC defender was appointed to the position in February 2025.
He took over from Patrick Korir, who resigned after just four months in charge.
As General Secretary, Ndege was responsible for overseeing the federation’s day-to-day operations, managing correspondence with members, committees, FIFA, and CAF, preparing FKF’s annual budget and financial reports, and supervising staff appointments and dismissals within the FKF Secretariat.

Before stepping into football administration, Ndege enjoyed a distinguished playing career, earning a reputation as one of Kenya’s top players.
He began his professional journey at Mathare United, where his defensive prowess and leadership qualities stood out.
His performances earned him a move to Tusker FC, one of Kenya’s most successful clubs.
At Tusker, Ndege was a key figure in the team’s backline, playing a pivotal role in securing multiple Kenyan Premier League titles.
His solid defensive skills and ability to read the game made him a mainstay in the team, helping Tusker dominate domestic football.

His leadership on and off the pitch also saw him captain the side at various stages.
Ndege’s success at the club level translated into national team recognition.
He earned several caps for the Kenyan national team, Harambee Stars, where he was instrumental in crucial AFCON qualification campaigns.
His defensive solidity and tactical awareness made him a trusted choice in Kenya’s backline during his playing days.
Following his retirement from active football, Ndege transitioned into administrative roles, demonstrating the same dedication and leadership that defined his playing career.
He served as the Secretary General of the Kenya Soccer Players Association (KSPA), where he advocated for players' welfare, fair wages, and improved working conditions in Kenyan football.
In addition to his work in football administration, Ndege built a career outside the sport, working as a Customs Officer at the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA).
