Angwenyi, assisted by other officials on a tour of the Gusii Stadium today, stated that this is the first time the stadium has hosted such an event in eight years.


"Gusii Stadium generated the first athletes who have represented the country in international competitions, and I am honored that this occasion will be conducted here after an eight-year wait," Angwenyi said.
