    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, just a point of information to the Senate of Kenya. He has mentioned something about doping. I am happy that the other day, the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) in Monaco, through President Sebastian Coe, declined to suspend Kenya from participation in World Athletic Championship. This was after the Kenya Government committed to allocate Kshs619 million per year, to fight the issue of rising doping cases in the Republic. I am grateful to the Ministry of Youth Affairs, Sports and the Arts, Cabinet Secretary (CS) Ababu Namwamba - the new broom - also the World Athletics Championship Organizers, Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) and the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). I hope the Ksh619 million that will be allocated annually to fight the rising cases of doping will assist to clean our sports. I ask all sports men and women from athletics, football, volleyball and many other disciplines to play a clean game. It does not make sense to dope. As we fight the menace of doping in the country, I call upon the DCI and DPP --- Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we fight the menace of doping in the country, we call upon the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) to prosecute anybody who assists our sportsmen and women to use bhang substances or to participate in doping. The ball is on the court of the DCI. Many cases were reported by the Anti- Doping Agency of Kenya (ADAK). We need heads to roll for us to have a clean game."
