    "content": "time that we are talking about anti-doping. I just want to address women that they should avoid being doped at any time anywhere as they continue to perform in their sports. I also want to support Hon. Korir who is in Boston. As we are discussing this, I know wherever he is, it is already a win for him because this is something that he has always been following up and pushing to happen. As we talk about sports, I also want to support Kenyan athletes, more so, when I look at one of us, Hon. Eusilah, who is married to an athlete in this Republic of Kenya who has won many races. It means that Kenyan women depend on good athletes because that is where we get future husbands. I want to support them especially when they are not doped. We have listened to the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare saying that those who go into doping do not perform and do not give us children. We are fighting that it never happens, so that our daughters and sons can get future husbands and future wives who are rich because of the natural resources that are found in Kenya. I support this Bill especially when I notice that it takes care of minors. There is a clause that takes care of minors. There are experienced minors who get involved in athletics. Guardians or parents of these minors take care of the minors and sign any document that is required. We also need to deal with the firms which supply these drugs. A drug user is a sick person. We need to fight those who supply the drugs through supply suppression. Once we deal with them, the drugs will not be available in our country. Our innocent athletes or sportspersons will not be involved in doping. Kakamega is known for producing footballers, volley-ballers and rugby players. All these should not be easily involved in doping. With that, I support the Bill."
