Our athletes should get smarter to conquer the world

Once they improve their English and start wearing Ozwald Boateng, Michael Bastan, Versace and Dolce&Gabbana; Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Nike and Puma will call on them. The few million shillings they earn in a year will be millions of dollars.

It doesn’t matter how many records one breaks or what football clubs one has been signed into, language and style limitation is real limitation. This applies equally to our musicians.

Till the athletes and musicians learn to speak English and style up, Tergat will be the only Kenyan true celeb that all international athletes and Hollywood stars call on when they come to Kenya. Our athletes are so great yet so far away. What wasted talent. What tragic situation.
