    "content": "When it comes to sports, we have had fame. There is a time Kenya was an agricultural country. We have run down the agricultural sector and even tourism. Sports now remain a big foreign exchange earner and also our main tourist attraction. Kenyans are best seen outside during sports when the Kembois, Chirchirs and Wanjirus win gold or silver medals in international competitions. I sit in a committee that oversees sports. Sports are still a national responsibility and will remain so. The county governments can also come in. We have several stadia that should be developed. The ones that are dilapidated should be repaired. The county governments, if I am not malicious, are wallowing in money - most of which they use to antagonize their enemies, hire goons to threaten their perceived and real enemies. Some hire employees who do not have what it takes to keep the jobs they have. If they could also come in and help the national Government to repair dilapidated stadia or build new ones, it would be very good. I believe that the Government should do more than what it is doing or what it has done given that sports is the major activity that is generating income and also giving Kenya a good image outside this country."
