"content": "Russia, which got a number of medals in the field events only got two medals more than Kenya. So, this is great and it does not matter whether it was gold, silver or bronze. All of them performed very well. It is only one person who can win gold. When they are running they do so as a team supporting each other. So, let us not say that we are elevating those who got gold over those who got silver or bronze medals. Let us go back to where we started. Kenyans participated in the Olympic games for the first time in 1956 in Melbourne, Australia. We had Nyandika Mayoro, Bartonjo Rotich, Kibet Boit, Paul Odhiambo. We had Areria Nentia who won the first Commonwealth games gold medal. We had Sarafina Ntau who won a gold medal in the Commonwealth games 100 metres. Wilson Kiprugut Chuma was the first Kenyan to win a bronze medal in 800 metres race in Tokyo in 1964. We also had Naftali Temu, Kipchoge Keino, Amos Biwott, Ben Kogo, Julius Sang and many others. As a Government, we need to honor these athletes."
