1500M and 5000M athletics World record holder Faith Kipyegon has been awarded handsomely by the government of Kenya after an impressive run in her recent performance in athletics, where she set new world records.
Faith was hosted today at the State House after returning to the country. The president congratulated her for her extraordinary performance in France and Italy. The champion has been awarded KSH 5,000,000 million cash plus a 6 million worth house in Nairobi Parkland area.
Faith Kipyegon emotionally thanked the president for the gift and expressed his joy in fulfilling the dream of buying her father a car she had promised earlier.
“Thank you so much, Mr. President. I’m so happy with the reward, now I can own a house in Nairobi, and with the money I can say now I can buy my father a car. I promised him that when I broke the World Record that I was going to buy a car for him…now I can fulfil my promise,” Faith.
