Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Branches in Central and Eastern Regions have hailed the Kenya Kwanza Government for its huge investment in sports infrastructure and talent development.
They said the government’s unprecedented focus on construction and upgrading of sports facilities across the country was testament of an administration keen on grassroots talent development and professionalization of soccer.
Led by Eastern Region FKF NEC Member Charles Njagi, officials from various branches said investment will go a long way in positioning the country as a regional soccer powerhouse.
Njagi asked the young people not to be misled to focus on the political discourse surrounding the “one term and two terms” narratives, saying they were not bound to bring any change.
Speaking during a dinner gala in Embu Town on Thursday evening where various grassroots teams, coaches and referees across the two regions were awarded for their exemplary performance, Njagi asked the young people to shift their focus from mechanics of power to results and achievements.
“We must change the conversation. Let us stop the discussion of one term, what will help us is whatever the government is investing with our young people,” he pleaded.
