"content": "This is the challenge where the Government must come in because it is sleeping on its job in that area. Bring out those people nationally. When President Obama of the United States of America (USA) came to Kenya, people printed T-shirts and every manner of material in the name of Obama in Mandera, Kisumu na kilamahali and sold them. Those are professional items that we should do to promote the identity and the leadership of these athletes and you can do so if the challenges they have can be addressed, for example, on taxation. If the Government deliberately encourages those who manufacture things in the name of those performers, they get a tax waiver; you will see all those things. We have people who won international athletics globally and when they are landing at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, there is not a single T-shirt in the name of Yego nor a single poster in the name of Mr. Rudisha or any of those guys who won those medals. It is a shame. We have relegated athletics to a sport for the Kalenjin Community, a sport for Rift Valley community, hakuna mtu mwingine anashughulika. Sorry I spoke in Kiswahili."
