"content": "Hon. Justice asked a fundamental question. We have lost hold on some of the events like the steeplechase race where we reigned supreme. We could only manage a bronze medal yesterday during the steeplechase finals in Budapest. I want to inform this honourable House that I have sat down with Athletics Kenya and challenged them to go back to the drawing board so that we reclaim our glory in our traditionally strong sports. I am also happy to report that, after that engagement, Athletics Kenya has submitted a blueprint for youth development to the Ministry. It is being considered. The blueprint requires Ksh64 million to go back to primary schools, the basics. Steeplechase requires special training and equipment. The Ministry has accepted to make special investment for Kenya to bounce back in steeplechase. It is an area where we have definitely lost our way."
