0

Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja urged President William Ruto to rename the under-construction Talanta Stadium as Raila Odinga International Stadium during Jamhuri Day celebrations. Addressing crowds at Nyayo Stadium, Sakaja repeated the appeal after loud cheers. Talanta Stadium, nearing completion, will seat 60,000 and is planned as a major national sports venue. Sakaja also proposed hosting next year’s Jamhuri Day celebrations at the new stadium once completed. The proposal has sparked public debate over national honors.
