NAIROBI, KENYA: If there is a national sports team that ended the year on a high, it has to be Harambee Stars, which is still exulting in its triumph over Zanzibar in the finals of the Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup.
Deputy President William Ruto gave the team Sh5 million and promised Sh50 million should they qualify for the 2019 edition of the Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon. President Uhuru Kenyatta weighed in with his personal reward of Sh10 million. These acts of unstructured generosity must be lauded by all who mean well for football development in our country.
