Kenya's chances in fencing at the Paris 2024 Olympics could be in jeopardy after the country's top potential Alexandra Ndolo complained about lack of support and sponsorship by the government.

The World Championships silver medallist wrote on her social media pages at the weekend thus: "It's time to be honest with myself and with the people around me. I have reached my limit. I hate to admit it, I hate to ask for help, but I feel I can no longer lie. Especially if those lies are protecting the system that should support me," she wrote.
