A group of leaders, including politicians, veteran sportsmen, and national heroes, has urged the government to set aside a section of the Uhuru Gardens National Monument & Museum to honour the country's heroes and heroines.
Speaking while honouring the late veteran journalist Leonard Mambo Mbotela at his home, the leaders stated that a central place should be created to recognise sportsmen and other legends.
The CEO of the National Heroes Council, Charles Wambia, argued that the protocol should be for the government to decide with a long-term vision of establishing a dedicated site to honour heroes like Mambo Mbotela and others across the nation.
Heeding the calls, Muhoroni MP James Onyango stated that it was a good suggestion and that the proposal would be taken to Parliament for consideration.
