    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to make a few comments on the Statements issued by Sen. Cherarkey and Sen. Sifuna. Beginning with the Statement by Sen. Cherarkey, I acknowledge and confess that we have not treated our athletes well in the past. However, I am happy that I am now seeing a movement towards rewarding these athletes, especially when they break world records, so to speak. That is something that is long overdue and should be applauded. One day I visited Turkey. When walking on the streets one day, I met a man who was just enthusiastic to talk to this African man walking on the streets. He asked me where I come from. I said that I came from Kenya. He asked, “Nairobi?” I said, ‘Yes, I come from Kenya. He asked, “Do you run?” Mr. Speaker, Sir, do not worry about my response to that question. However, that tells you that this country is known for our world beaters in athletics. Our athletes have represented us as a nation much better than the ambassadors have done, yet we do too little to appreciate that representation."
