Hi
For years, sports media has covered the gory plight our heroes go through
after being abandoned after their glory days are over.
Conjestina has suffered for the last two years with repeated promises she
would be taken care of that have not been followed through.
Unmasking her plight for all to see has had the desired impact of finally
landing her the help she much needed.
We can report she is currently undergoing top notch health care and the
goodwill donations especially from Kenyans on Twitter will go a long way in
salvaging one of the country's icons.
Sports stars such as Frank Bruno and Paul Gascoigne have benefitted from
such exposure in Britain and following years of silent demand for action,
time has come to expose the grim reality suffered by our sportspersons.
In this regard, I consider criticism of the media over Conjestina ill
advised.
Regards
Mutwiri
