    "content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, this Statement is serious and it is unfortunate. Sen. Sakaja and I support the AFC Leopards team. While we were growing up, there were international matches at St. Kwitkoi in 1986. I think we have never been at this state since Independence because we cannot hold an international match in any stadium in the country. Madam Deputy Speaker, I requested for a Statement on Wote Stadium, which was supposed to be completed in 2018. Up to now, they are still arguing about growing of grass, irrigation and the pavilion. Meanwhile, Kshs200 Million has already been spent through the Sports Fund. Another Kshs600 million has been given to Jamhuri Sports Ground while another Kshs600 million has been given to the so-called International Stadium in Kirinyaga and many others, yet we cannot play a friendly soccer tournament in any of these stadiums. It is an unfortunate situation. An urgent investigation on the use of Sports Fund should be done to find out why they are spending so much money yet we cannot have a friendly match even for toddlers. Madam Deputy Speaker, this country has found itself in an unfortunate situation where young people have used sports to become millionaires. Through the Ministry of Sports, Culture and Heritage, we have impeded the growth of sports where Kenyans used to market themselves out there in the world. I thank you."
