NAIROBI, Kenya, May 9 – This weekend was a full sporting schedule for President Uhuru Kenyatta and we doubt he moved anywhere close to a suit Saturday and Sunday.
On Saturday, the Head of State was at the Moi Sports Centre Kasarani for the third edition of the Kip Keino Classic and sat through all the five hours of action.
On Sunday, he started his day at the Nyayo National Stadium where he witnessed the first edition of the Nairobi CIty Marathon.
In the afternoon, he made his way back to the Kasarani Stadium, this time to witness the Mashemeji Derby between AFC Leopards and Gor Mahia, which ended 1-1; maybe a fair result by all means.
Accompanied by former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, who was also at the Kip Classic, the Head of State enjoyed the football from two of Kenya’s most followed teams.
Here are some images from Sunday evening’s action.
