National Olympic Committee of Kenya (NOC-K) has entered into a partnership with Koitalel Samoei University College to set up a sports centre dubbed ‘Olympiafrica’ at the institution.
This comes barely two weeks after the body revealed plans to put up a high-performance training centre at Kenyatta University.
Speaking after signing the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), NOC-K President Shadrack Maluki said the partnership will not only help improve the performance of Kenyan athletes but also promote a structured access to sports for youths.
To achieve their shared vision of nurturing and empowering youths through sports, NOC-K promised to provide technical support and guidance to the university.
“This collaboration reflects a shared vision of nurturing responsible and empowered young citizens,” said Maluki.
