President William Ruto has renamed Kericho Green Stadium, the venue of the 60th Mashujaa Day celebrations, after Kiprugut Chumo, the first Kenyan Olympic medalist.
Acknowledging Chumo's contributions to the nation through sports, the president said he deserved the honour, as the National Heroes Council rolled out 157 other awardees from different fields recognised during this year's celebrations at the stadium.
