Pastor Dorcas Rigathi graced the Laikipia County Governor’s Cup Finals at Nanyuki Stadium Saturday, May 20.
Speaking during the match Pastor Dorcas acknowledged the role of sporting activities in safeguarding the future of the youth. She says such activities take the youth out of idleness and thus are productive.
“It is always very important to have the youth participating, recognized, respected and honored, this is the future of this nation. When the youth are involved we get them out of frustrations, we get them out of drugs.
“This is something that we should replicate across the 47 counties. With sports we are going to have other activities so that we can involve everyone and keep our young people busy," she stated.
Pastor Dorcas added that the tournament is in line with her boychild agenda. Under her office, Pastor Dorcas will sponsor the tournament in the county of Laikipia for another 3 months.
