Samuel Okafor named new Kick it Out chief executive

ANTI-DISCRIMINATION group Kick it Out has announced former NatWest executive director Samuel Okafor will take over as its chief executive next month.

The former footballer, who recently served as an executive director at Coutts, the private bank run by NatWest, had spells at a variety of non-league clubs including Dover Athletic, Enfield Town, Sittingbourne, Hampton and Richmond, and Bromley.

He was also a driving force in advancing the diversity, equity, and inclusion agenda at NatWest Group, where he worked for over two decades, notably co-leading the group’s Racial Equality Taskforce.
