Nandi to rename Kipchoge Keino stadium in honour of President Ruto

Nandi Governor Stephen Sang has announced that the iconic Kipchoge Keino Stadium will be renamed William Ruto Stadium once its reconstruction is complete.

The facility—recently commissioned by Defence Cabinet Secretary Soipan Tuya—has been moved to the Kapsabet Showground to pave the way for the development of a new ultra-modern, 10,000-seat stadium.

The project is part of a broader effort to upgrade sports infrastructure across the county.

Speaking in Kapsabet during the inauguration of the new Kapsabet Municipality offices, Governor Sang said President William Ruto was instrumental in mobilizing resources to strengthen sports programs in the region.

He noted that renaming the stadium in the President’s honour is a gesture of appreciation for his continued support for local sports development.

According to Governor Sang, the new stadium is expected to expand opportunities for athletes while further cementing Nandi’s reputation as a sporting powerhouse once the project is completed.
