Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Sports Principal Secretary Peter Tum wants athletes to invest wisely to secure their future.<\/p>\n

They have realised athletes have a problem with managing their earnings and the ministry is planning financial management training for them.<\/p>\n

While addressing Team Kenya in Accra, Tum said they are working on a Cabinet Memo with the help of experts to secure athletes\u2019 Social Welfare.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want you people to secure your futures. That is why we are doing all this. President William Ruto is also supportive and is aware of these efforts,\u201d the PS noted.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have so far improved the reward schemes and allowances for all sportspersons on international assignments. We are also working round the clock to improve your conditions in training while preparing for international competitions. The government is also looking into issues such as employment and pension funds. In all these, we are working closely with the corporate sector,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

This is in addition to employment opportunities with the uniformed forces.<\/p>\n

He described Kenya\u2019s performance at the Games as disciplined and diligent.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I landed here (Accra), I was informed you were placed 40th on the medal table. That shocked me. I asked myself how that could be, especially in a continental event. Little did I know you were warming up for a medal haul as was the case on Thursday when you won four golds,\u201d the PS said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou guys have done the country proud…I don\u2019t want to single anyone out. All of you have been excellent. Most of you are young and I know the future is bright for you,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Sports PS had earlier visited his Ghanaian counterpart, William Kartey.<\/p>\n

The two discussed sports facilities and their collaboration with respective sports federations.<\/p>\n

Kenya will consult Ghana on various issues as preparations for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, alongside Uganda and Tanzania, gather pace.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am sure it is not easy to host all these countries. We would love to know how you did it considering we are hosting the 2027 Afcon tournament,\u201d said Tum.<\/p>\n
