    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I stated earlier on, when this contract was being drawn up, I had put in place an interim board to manage Harambee Stars because at that time, we had a lot of wrangles in the Federation. In fact, we almost had two bodies claiming to be the official federations. So, to protect the national team at that time, I made a decision to put in place the Harambee Stars Management Board which was being headed by Evans Kidero. Indeed, they did a good thing to negotiate for funding for the Harambee Stars. You are all aware that many of these sportsmen and sportswomen need funds which sometimes the public coffers alone cannot satisfy. So, we really want to engage commercial companies and private individuals to support the national soccer team, just like our National Olympics Committee is appealing and doing various fundraising activities to support our sportsmen and sportswomen for the London Olympics which are coming up in two to three months time."
