Kenya’s rugby players do not use banned food products, Kenya Rugby Union (KRU) has said. KRU Chairman Mwangi Muthee said in a statement the Anti-Doping Task Force report, led by Prof Moni Wekesa Committee, “aims at filling everyone with consternation.”

KRU challenged the Government to interrogate members of the committee which alleged that Kenyan sportsmen, among them national rugby team players, used illegal food supplements.
