No one else won the Javelin Gold medal or holds the world leading record apart from YEGO.

I don't think references to something Yego did can be considered representations of Yego doing endorsements for tusker... right? isn't that the whole premise of the "TeamKenya" thing? One gets paid for ENDORSEMENTS right? Ama I have this whole thing wrong?

That was cheap, just pay the guy and use his image - they are behaving like a cash strapped startup, depending on poorly paid 'photoshopists' to run the marketing.

Great to see the way Jubilee gava is supporting sports. DPORK really emphasised this at JKIA today while receiving the team back!!!

Good on jubilee govt to cheer the team after they have won. Good on Sonko for hiring stretch limos to ferry the athletes. But it would be better if government actually contributed to the success instead of waiting until the athletes are successful then jump on the bandwagon.

Jubilee can start by breaking ground on the 5 stadiums they have been promising every few months. Less talk and more action and more results

How can they not have participated yet these people worked with coaches hired by Athletics Kenya, trained in government facilities, their air tickets was paid using GOK money. Most of them are cops, soldiers, prison warders who are on GOK payroll....does it have to be your way or the highway?

Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly
Why are you so sensitive to criticism? Are you in the jubilee govt?

1. The current government did not hire them as cops or prison warders as you claim. Most of them held these jobs before the current govt came to power.
2. Travel is covered by either IAAF or the local organizing committee
3. Government does not pay coaches as you are trying to claim

Why don't you tell us what the politicians who went to the airport to jump on the bandwagon actually did.


In any case I am not directing my criticism at Jubilee specifically. This has been the behaviour of Kenyan politicians for as long as I have known.

You have Ruto now grabbing primary school land. If you grab football fields, where will the next generation of footballers come from? Grabbing fields is detrimental to Kenya's sporting prospects yet this is the same Ruto who is quick to run to the airport to take credit. Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

This has been the behaviour of Kenyan politicians for decades. They disregard or even take detrimental actions, then they hop on the bandwagon to reap where they did not sow.

Its not being sensitive. This gov has done alot for sports that the mkate nusu gov dint do. Lets leave the sch play ground out first, that case is in court. If you feel so much more needs to be done why not apply for a position or become an sports activist. You cant just criticize from the back of your computer while as an individual you're doing nothing. Let me ask. What have you done for sports in Kenya as Alba? Get your a$$ off that chair and do something. The athletes will tell you that they have the support.
