 Well, Kenya rugby in the last few years has just been going down. It has lost credibility with sponsors, with the players. So I think the time is right now to actually clean up stuff and bring back the way it's supposed to be. Right now, it's a whole mess at the Kenya rugby union. Credibility is gone. Sponsors have left. Players do not trust the union. And the players are very important part of rugby. The fans are also disappointed at the way the union has been run. It's lack of leadership. So I'm coming to provide that leadership that is needed to bring back the way it's supposed to be. When we come back to the union, we are going to... Because these sponsors have worked the last few years and they trust us. When we left, a lot of them also left after the new board came in in 2014. There were directors who abused sponsors. It's recorded. They ran Safari 7 at a loss in 2014. I think they made over 25 million loss. The last time Safari 7 made a profit was in 2013. When we had Safari come on board. So all these big corporates left Bamburi, Safari comes. What's better, came in after and left again in a half. We had a magical... I think the Ministry of Tourism was also sponsoring Kenya Rugby. There was a debacle last year when the team covered their shirts. Because the money went into... to plug a hole at the bank. So it's just a loss of credibility and what we are seeking to do is for me to come in with a group of good directors. I cannot just do this myself. So the whole board, the current directors will be left there as well as the four new directors who are going to come in. We have to work as a team to restore credibility and that's what matters. So every weekend as now fans of Rugby, we are sending M-Pesa to clubs. It's not sustainable. Every weekend, most clubs, the big names, even the smaller teams in the Championship and Kenya Cup as well, they're calling and you have to send M-Pesa for them to play a game. When Safari Sevens was running at a profitability, the money used to be sent to all the clubs in the country because Safari Sevens was a big money earner and it was self-sustaining and the money would go to the clubs. Now the Kenya Rugby has got very little money that they send out to clubs and Safari Sevens has not made money since 2014. I think in 2017 they didn't even hold Safari Sevens. Last year again, I'm reliably informed that they also made a loss of I think about 5 million because it was not well attended. It didn't have a title sponsor. So this is a very good property, Kenya Rugby. But it's been run badly and we should seek to restore credibility, get the sponsors back in, get the fans back in, get the Rugby players trusting the union again and everything will be okay. We have so much talent but it's been run very badly. So we have very good talent on the field but very bad lack of talent on the board so we are trying to restore that. It will be a challenge but I'm up to this challenge because I've been there before. I came in as a director in 2006 up to 2010. Again, we didn't have a lot of sponsors there but we got in sponsors and I ran with a good team the Sevens Outfit. So that's when we came in with the contracts, performance contracts and everything. So whatever they wanted, it was up to us to get and then what we needed from the players and the playing unit was the results. So this we have done before. Now, if you see, we have actually regressed from 2006 to 2010 and after that but we were growing as a nation. We got to two semi-finals of our World Cup Sevens in 2009 and in 2013. Last year, of course, the performances were poor but what did you expect? When the rest of the teams in the World Cup Sevens were training the Kenyan players had not been paid and they were basically looking after their own welfare because they've got families and all that. So when other people are training and you are worried about your welfare of course that's not an ideal situation. So of course last year we did very poorly. But what did we expect? We didn't expect miracles. Miracles don't happen really. It's hard work that gets results. So once we come in and we get back in the sponsors, we have to talk to the players. You see, right now there needs to be a conversation. You see, the players lack trust in the current union. So the current union, if I was right with what I had last week when the chairman actually was speaking at them, not speaking to them you should speak to people not at them. These are people, these young men and women have put their bodies on the line for this country and they're not getting the respect that they deserve. So when somebody is thinking about who is going to get his daily bread and somebody else's competitor is training morning, evening, what do you expect? So I think they've done pretty good with the little resources that they have. So I will not even criticize the Kenyan Sevens players because they're in the face of adversity, they're doing pretty well. So of course now there are senior players who have refused to sign the contracts. I think it's only in the Kenyan rugby union now that when a player was making 150,000 shillings monthly years ago now in 2019 you want to pay them 45,000. I mean, it doesn't make sense. So the union has failed. The part of the players is to play and the directors of the union and the board are there to do policy and to seek for sponsors. It's not the other way around. So one unit of the Kenyan rugby union has failed and that's the directorship. We have the talent, also in the coaching talent. Before we had Mike Friday, Paul True, then we had our local coaches and you can remember also in 2006 at Benjamin as a coach. So we have coaching talent, we have playing talent. So it's good that we're growing capacity, we're capacity building. Some of these international coaches who came before actually were. The main plan was for them also to coach coaches so that our coaches are up to a certain standard. So the transition, power has been dealt a hard hand because it doesn't have the players that he wants but he's doing pretty well with what he has and he has next to nothing. So he's a good coach, he's proven himself in the local series. Of course his team is also at the club level. So you would say if his performances there are good then he can of course take part in the national team and here's Benjamin's vice assistant coach. So there's nothing wrong with this, it's just that he doesn't have everything that he requires. I don't think there's an analyst now. We had an analyst before, we had nutritionists on board, we had our fitness and conditioning coach, strength and conditioning coach. Again you see that the first choice did not also send a contract. But again we have talent so we have now our strength and conditioning coach and these are local coaches. So it's good that we're building capacity but we need to give the team more. The current leadership will give them a D minus and that is me being very generous. So they have failed, basically they have failed and that's why we are running for this. We're not running for fun because this takes a lot of time, takes your resources but you have a passion for this game and yes we need to go back to A's, not D's. So yes they have failed and I'm not afraid to say it. They have failed, they have lost credibility. I think they're also lazy, they're not going out and actively looking for sponsors. They're always fighting with the players. Of course when things are burning at home they're not going to be comfortable but this crop is actually not doing much for the game and it's time to make a big change. We're lucky as well that we have depth and we have people who are passionate about the game and they use their own resources and friends of rugby who send money and all that to them to run the program. So otherwise the union I think has failed again in development and the only way you're going to get players now if you started the grassroots and put resources into development. These are the players for the future. So we need these young boys and girls in a structured system that is supported and there has to be defined pathways. So you see Akidu is playing in a community rugby now he goes to high school from there. Now there's an age-great rugby which it's not given any resources and you know we're going to be hosting the under 20s in March and we have got good coaches, Paula Denner is the head coach, passionate about the game but he's not been given support by the union so that has to change drastically. It's all about the sponsorships and the partners coming in. These days of course for spots to be sustainable it's all about media rights so instead of just also you know depending on sponsors. Sponsors come in when the product is being seen. So we have to make the game sexy again. We need to bring in the crowds. People need to be watching the games on TV and of course platforms. TV is not just on the wall now. TV is on your phone, it's on your iPad, it's everywhere. So that is what we need to exploit. There's a deal that was signed last year with one of the media partners here and we need to exploit that fully. And that's the way we're going to bring in sponsors. If you see what SpotPerson has now gone into Formula One. And that's a new thing and that's a lot of money. I think eight million dollars first year, ten and twelve million the next year. So we have companies here that have the money but they have no trust in the union. So we need to, that's a big thing. That's a main big thing is to restore credibility. And everybody will be back, the crowds will be back. Remember now in 2013, Safari 7 had the biggest number of spectators, 47,000 and that was the weekend of the terrorist incident at Westgate. And we still managed to get in 47,000 people paying fans of the game coming in to watch over the weekend. So that was the biggest number ever. We need to get back to that. This time now is very important because now with the New Sports Act the length of the tenure is four years. So if you make a mistake, you'll start for four years and we'll just be complaining. So it's now time for the affiliates to say enough is enough. If they're happy with the state of affairs and I doubt anybody is they can vote in an alternative candidate. But if they aren't progress, I'm offering myself for that. We need to qualify for France 2023. That will not happen. It's going to be hard work. What we did before was also have the Kenya 15s side playing in the Vodakom Cup in South Africa. And you see that helped the team a lot. We even beat Namibia in Madagascar and we had the luxury of losing by, I think, eight points with us and we'd have made the World Cup in 2015. We lost to Zimbabwe by, I think, 18 points. So we need to get back there. We need to have our team playing competitive rugby, test games, and hopefully now with the good friends we have in rugby all across the world including South Africa we'll get Kenya 15s back to the Vodakom Cup, play high quality rugby. And that's the only way you can improve is you play the game more and more with better competition. You lose a few games and all that but you get better. So you need to play high quality rugby for us to improve. If you want to beat Namibia and be Africa's representative at the World Cup, you must be able to beat Namibia in Namibia. For you to say you're the best in Africa. So that's why we need to be ambitious. We know that we have the talent. So we just need to get things straight and let's be fair to rugby and be fair to the players. And let's get the best people in there, people with passion. People who will return the credibility to the game and we can move on from there.
