Forget Chebet and Faith for a moment. Look at the exhausted yt athlete lying flat on the track. Think about that for a second. Can you imagine if Kenyans decided who represents us in athletics? Someone like Oscar Sudi would probably make the list (heโs been voted as MP 3 times in a row yet he has never contributed in parliament apart from voting).
The same way we send our best athletes to win medals is exactly how we should choose our leaders. Running a country is far more important than winning races, it is our future at stake. Yet, instead of electing competent minds, we gamble with thieves, murderers, drug dealers, goons, and money launderers.
Anyway congrats to Chebet and Faith! They give us a reason to smile in our misery.
