The 2020 Sports Personality of the Year Awards (Soya) gala set for Naivaisha, Nakuru County on Saturday will be a ceremony with a difference.

Soya will break from its tradition where the awards ceremony has been the main event in favour of a symposium and then later an appreciation dinner where those who were able to find a way to do something despite the challenges will be honoured.
