Kifaya movement in Kuwait

[via Sabbah’s Blog]

(AFP) Around 200 Kuwaiti soccer fans called for the resignation of Kuwait Football Association officials after the national team’s poor form during their World Cup qualifying games.

The protestors, standing outside the KFA offices, raised placards calling on members of the ruling al-Sabah family to stay away from the football federation and for holding officials accountable for the team’s debacle.

“Kefaya” or “enough”, one of the placards read. (in fact that one is saying: “Keep the ruling family away from sports”)

The president and the head of training at the KFA are members of the ruling al-Sabah family.
