    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to request for a Statement from the Chair, Departmental Committee on Sports, Culture and Tourism on the recent dramatic withdrawal of the Kenya Prisons Volleyball Team from the 2019 Africa Club Championship in Cairo, Egypt. It is worth noting that Kenya had three teams participating in the Championship, namely Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB), Kenya Pipeline and Kenya Prisons. Those teams have, in the recent past, done our country proud in the various competitions they have taken part in. There had been numerous complaints from the teams regarding the deplorable state of the hotels and the food in Cairo, and also from the general public that the Government and the Ministry of Sports in particular had failed to prepare the teams properly knowing they were representing our country. The eventual recall of the Kenya Prisons Team was uncharacteristic, uncalled for, and very shameful and an embarrassment to our country and, therefore, calls for answers."
