Sports Cabinet CS Amina Mohamed has confirmed Kenyan Premier League (KPL) players will be getting Sh10,000 for the next three months as part of the Sh20 million Covid-19 stimulus package from the Sports Fund.
The agreement had been reached a couple of weeks ago to help players who have been struggling to make a living after the games were suspended owing to the pandemic. According to the CS, only verified players from teams as well as five technical team members from some team will benefit.
"We are going to release Sh10,000 per month for 30 players and five technical officers for the 12 most vulnerable KPL Clubs.
