Kenya to send full team

Kenya will send a 240-strong team to the New Delhi Commonwealth Games from Saturday after receiving security assurances from India, officials said on Thursday. Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka and Sports Minister Paul Otuoma told the Kenyan delegation that the two governments were working closely together.
"Kenyans should not join a team of pessimists but go and bring glory to our country. As a strong member of the Commonwealth, Kenya should show solidarity with India by honouring the Games," Musyoka told the delegation while handing over the east African nation's flag to team captain, world steeplechase champion Ezekiel Kemboi, and chef de mission Jonathan Koskei.
