Honoured to join @adapt2win_org athletes panel at COP31. Climate adaptation must reach grass root sports, not just elite athletes. Through Play Green, weโre building resilience in Kenyan schools and driving change through reduction of single use plastic through our beyond the bin initiative. Protecting sports starts with protecting its future athletes. #COP31
Climate adaptation is not optional, it is an urgent necessity. At COP31 my message is clear, we must move from commitments to implementation, unlock finance and invest in locally led solutions that build resilience and protect lives and livelihoods. #adapt2Win#COP31 #playgreen #rugby #sports
Looking back, secondary school was full of people with incredible potential. Some were brilliant academically, some could make an entire classroom laugh, others were naturally witty, outspoken, fearless or exceptionally creative. There was so much raw talent around us.
The year June 27th 2004 we travelled to Zambia ๐ฟ๐ฒ to play in the 2005 World Cup qualifiers where wiped the floor against all the teams and we had not been paid allowances. Some KRFU officials were sat on the stands drinking fine whiskey ๐ฅ as we fought for our country.
Honoured to be named runner up UN Kenya Person of the Year 2026. This award belongs to everyone who believes in the power of sport to drive climate change action and transform communities. Through Play Green we are proving sport can be a force for lasting change. From over 8,000 fruit trees planted in schools to recycling almost a tonne of PET as Safari 7s, we have only just began. Thank you @UnKenya
