Renowned sports personality Tecla Lorupe has urged the youth to become the country’s environmental ambassadors.
Lorupe decried the rampant destruction of the ecosystem, especially within the country s protected areas.
Speaking during a tree planting session at St. Mark s Enkutoto Primary School and Embakasi High School in Kajiado to mark the World Environment Day, Lorupe said future sportsmen and women need a clean environment to train. You don t need a mask to train in a forest where there is enough oxygen as opposed to training in the city where the ground is bare and the air polluted, says Lorupe.
