LET MOMBASA STADIUM BE IN A CLEAN ENVIRONMENT
Mombasa
county is the second town after Nairobi county and it receives very
many visitors both for sports and culture. A cursory visit around an
important area used for cultural activities,which is the stadium reveals
that the place is under construction now over 4 years. Mombasa residents who
were around since the 1990's have very good memories of the stadium and
remember with nostalgia what went on in the stadium. Mombasa county
stadium has nurtured careers and played a big role of hosting both local
and international events. It has also been a pivot point in primary and
secondary games and hosting of national events,where locals have been
attending. Those participating started their assemble outside the
stadium. Most political meetings have been done in the municipal
stadium. Some athletes started their big journey from the stadium. All
football matches both local and international have graced the county
stadium. It was with astonishment when l passed the county stadium and l
was greeted with silence and construction stopped. Mombasa county sometimes receives visitors who only come for
events in the stadium. Which picture are we portraying by stopping the construction of the stadium? Children come for sports and
cultural activities, what message do they go back with? Let the county
government hurry up with the construction of the stadium,so
that the stadium remains in a clean and favourable environment fit for
sports and cultural activities and Mombasa people will walk and chew gum
at the same time.
