"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to comment on those two Petitions. First and foremost, I support them. At one time I had an opportunity to be the secretary for youth and sport in this country and I am very familiar with what the hon. Senator is presenting. Sports is an industry which brings serious income into the country and employs youths as well as paying well. A footballer who is well known or is in the right football clubs in the world is likely earning not less than Kshs30 million per month and much more. Ethiopia has now been rebuilt by its sports people who compete with us very closely. One of the biggest challenges is how we interact with the international community and FIFA. Sometimes we do get some of the sponsorships we should be getting abroad as well as the tapping and harnessing of talent in this country. The other challenge which has taken some years is the stadia especially well developed ones. We should be having serious stadia of international standards at least in every county since devolution started."
