Sonko gives Ksh 1 Billion for rehabilitation of Nairobi Stadiums

 

Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko, has announced that Ksh 1 billion will be used for rehabilitation of 6 Stadiums. The Stadiums are, Dandora Grounds, Umeme Grounds, Kihumbuini, Joseph Kangethe Woodley Grounds, Ziwani and Riruta.

This comes days  after Kenyan sports enthusiast took to social media to shame the leaders in the sports ministry with the claim of negligence and lack of concern to sport related activities. Kenyans were bothered by the fact that during the 2018 Russia World cup, MP’s were alleged to have used taxpayers money in the name of benchmarking for a trip to Russia. The state of the stadiums in the nation had been questioned earlier and Kenyans said that it was not up to their expectations considering the promises which had been made during the campaign period. With this move, Kenyans hope that other counties will embark on the same.
