"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for allowing me to contribute to this very important Bill that is a great landmark in our Republic. I thank Hon. Wesley Korir, my neighbour Member of Parliament. I wish him well as he competes in the Boston Marathon. I am hoping he will perform well considering that he has been a champion of the Boston Marathon. The history of athletics in Kenya dates back to the 1960s. You remember Kipchoge Keino who won the Olympics having run bare feet. I want to assure the world that Kenyan athletes have come a long way and it is something that is natural. This issue of enhancing performance is a new phenomenon and has never happened from the time of Kipchoge Keino and Ben Jipcho from Mt. Elgon and other runners who have made history in running for this nation. In the neighbouring country of Uganda, you hear of Kiprop and Kiprotich. It is a lineage that runs. It is something that is inbuilt that they are able to perform well. The issue of doping to enhance performance is cheating. It is corruption. What happened at the University of Nairobi, Hall Nine, where prohibited drugs were found, was shameful. These The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
