Team Kenya athletes get boost ahead of Commonwealth Games as gov’t revamps reward scheme

‘’So, any gold
medal will receive Sh2.5 million and that is the figure that SRC has already
approved. You know that this is government money and we work with government
agencies which have approved Ksh2.5 million for a gold medallist. For silver,
the team that participated in the last edition were paid receive Sh300, 000 but
through the effort of his Excellency the president William Ruto, this has been
reviewed to receive KSh1.5 million,’’Mwangi said.
