    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. As I rise to second the Sports (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.45 of 2024), I am impressed by the strides made by our in-law. During the Easter holidays in the village, I will ensure I pass this message to a good friend of mine, who is a father-in-law and a close associate. He is one of the synod members of the Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK). I will implore him to recognize that the Senator, our in-law, is performing exceptionally well in the roles envisaged in Article 96. This afternoon has been very sporty. From the Sports (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.33 of 2024) addressing issues of financing the sports association fund to the establishment of the sports academy. It is clear that we are making progress. However, in my opening remarks, I must say it is unfortunate that sports in this country still depend on tokenism and handouts. Sen. Chimera Raphael, the Mover of this Bill, has highlighted that the lifeline of most sports clubs, be it Gor Mahia, AFC Leopards or even my own athletes in Nandi County, relies heavily on handouts. While we provide these handouts, we then post pitiful messages on Twitter and other social media platforms to celebrate their victories. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
