What were all those officials doing to the athletes? Earning allowances! When Kenyan athletes decided to delay the trip to London because of the weather, the officials left WITHOUT THEM!!! Why? Some allowances are based on the days you are at the games and by delaying their departure, the athletes were negatively affecting their pay package!!! If I'm not wrong, only ONE official was left in Kenya with the athletes! The number of Kenya official was also unproportionally high! Not Nigerian high, but high all the same! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

The fellows couldn't even agree where the athletes should train!! I think the government through the ministry of sports should have a greater oversight and more teeth and balls to regulate/control this bodies. The organizations are totally mismanaging ALL sports! The only remaining sports unaffected by the cancer - rugby and athletics - are also down the sewer! Time for radical surgery! Never count on making a good sale.

My honest thoughts is that our athletes just din't know what the honour of an olympic medal is nor what the honour of represnting Kenya is.......there is no way that Ugandan would win the Gold in his 4th marathon!!! ..."Wewe ni mtu mdogo sana....na mwenye amekuandika pia ni mtu mdogo sana!".

I rem an athletics official dismissing those guys as 3 rate runners who couldn't qualify to run for kenya. So they opted to try their luck elsewhere. see now?
