"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to commend our sportsmen, especially the ones who have been performing in athletics and in rugby. They have done a remarkable job for this country. They need to be recognised. They need to be given medals such as EGH. A person like David Rudisha has performed an exceptional duty. He has done a good job for this country, more than some of the people who are recipients of medals. There is another very important and critical thing. I am very happy about the Minister because he is a young man. First of all, I am speaking as a marathoner; a world champion in the parliamentarian category. I know how it feels when we have a country with sportsmen. In Uganda, only one man managed to take a gold medal home and the whole nation celebrated. Once we have this Bill enacted into law, each county will be forced to have a stadium. We can have a national academy for sports, but the law should be such that each county should have a stadium, so that all the children can participate in all types of sports. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very important Bill and, therefore, I urge the House to pass it immediately."
