Mike Sonko rescues stranded Kenya wheelchair boxing team

Former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko’s visit granted a reprieve to the Kenya wheelchair boxing team, who requested assistance to address disabilities’ needs.

The team, led by Mary Atieno, is set to compete in a para-boxing competition in Poland in June.

Sonko visited them at their training camp in Shauri Moyo Social Hall where he donated uniforms and visas.

The team also received a punching bag that will help them during this period as they prepare for the tournament.

Mary claimed that they had been hiring the punching bag from a local dealer.

The team is hopeful that they will bring gold home.
