adminNAIROBI. — Kenya is “well on the way” to complying with the code of World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), the government said yesterday after discussions to fix an anti-doping law whose shortcomings threatened Kenya’s participation at the Rio Olympics.
A Kenyan delegation, including the foreign and sports ministers, held talks with WADA in Canada on Tuesday after the agency declared last week that the law pushed through parliament in April still left Kenya non-compliant with its code.
The announcement threw into question the participation of Kenya, famed for its distance runners, in the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in August. — Reuters .
