"content": "our athletes continue to suffer. Those are young people with ambitions. As a country, we have failed to galvanise this resource by ensuring that we have sports tourism, where people will come to run with us and keep fit. That is because we are a running nation. We have failed to mobilise resources to create stadia and other sporting facilities. I am sure many countries would participate and benefit from this. There has always been the argument around the cost of hosting the Olympics. About US$16 billion was used by Brazil to host the Olympics. It is a humongous sum, but the pride of hosting nations, having your name up there and the national psyche that is motivated by that one win must not be gainsaid. We need to take advantage of our talents. I congratulate our team, but we must learn the lessons so that we can make Kenya a great nation high up there in the spirit of our athletes."
