    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, our Constitution provides for labour rights, including for these athletes and sports people. Why can we not create a conducive environment and legal framework that will enable athletes to form their trade union and raise their issues, and those issues be taken seriously? Although we are members of international associations, like I have said earlier, nothing stops us, under our law, from customizing our law to fit the issues we are going to address. This is so that we can take care of sports – football and athletics – and all the other sectors that are very important. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I conclude by, once again, congratulating Mr. Eliud Kipchoge – a gentleman par excellence – for breaking the world record and joining Daniel Komen and David Rudisha, among other trailblazers who have held the world record in different fields and made a difference in this great Republic."
